So choose a suitable dehumidifier, first step you should know how much the size of the place you need to dehumidify before matching it with the machine's capacity. Below is a very simple chart help you to find out the right capacity based on space conditions and space square footage: So before using this chart to help you choose the right size dehumidifier, you have to know the current environment of the space, is it slightly damp, moderately damp or very damp? Well, the moisture you want to remove always depends on several factors, such as the number of people living in the space and the routine activities. More people in space can produce more air-breathing and that leads to excessive moisture. And houses with low height are more prone to condensation and dampness.
After your judge of the space environment, then just match the environment with the space square footage you owned, finally, you can get a dehumidifier's capacity data, such as 90 pints, and this is the dehumidifier capacity for a specific size area dehumidification.

 

 

 

Dehumidifier in the market get 3 different drain systems, by the pump, by Gravity or tank,
●Dehumidifier with a tank, firstly for crawlspace and basement we should not choose a dehumidifier with a tank, it is just a cheap and trouble maker, make you busy to clean the tank and unit does not last for long.
● Gravity drain system can be applied to the Crawlspace and basement where have a sump pump installed, just leads the hose to the sump pump.
● Dehumidifier with a Condensate pump, the condensate pump is for the use of draining upwards or for long distances draining. For draining upwards, you have to pass the water pipe through a window to complete the task with the power from the condensate pump.
Pumps often have serious issues such as overheating, detection failure and rusting. Luckily, our engineers have developed a pump that is much more reliable. With a 20’ lifting distance, the condensate pump gives you the freedom to drain anywhere.
