You also benefit from a 24-hour timer, that means you can set the actual time it will operate. Regardless of the settings you have in place, once the water collection tank is full, it will switch itself off. Desiccant dehumidifiers will generally work in areas where there are temperatures as low as 1-degree Celsius and are best for caravans, compared to compressor dehumidifiers that appear to function better in warmer areas because the coils have a much harder time extracting water when the temperature is lower than 10-degrees Celsius. I am impressed and appreciative with the excellent after sales service I received after an item I bought from them a while ago failed. Desiccant Dehumidifiers – these use a desiccant material, that is materials that absorb water. One of the most commonly used desiccants in these kinds of dehumidifiers is Zeolite, that works similarly to silica gel at absorbing water from the air. A built-in fan helps to direct the air inside the unit and through a series of wheels that hold the desiccant and slowly rotate to dry the air. Moisture collected by the desiccant is extracted when a portion of the wheel that is not used in drying the air is heated.Used this a few times does what it says on the tin.i keep a lamps dehumidifier in my caravan and refill using these crystals it lasts a couple of months or so and keeps the caravan fresh in the winter would recommend Although it doesn’t have an adjustable humidity level setting or anything as fancy as that, it does have an automatic shut-off feature that means once the tank is full, it will switch itself off, to avoid overfilling.

Okay, so there’s quite a price jump from the above item to this one. However, if you are looking for something a little more robust, then this is a great choice. If you are worried about it running constantly and using more energy than is necessary, don’t. It comes equipped with a digital control display and you can actually set the level of moisture you want to extract, between 40 to 80% humidity. This means that once the level has been reached, the machine will turn itself off. As we mentioned before, you can actually get both electric dehumidifiers and non-electric models. There are some good points and bad points about both, so it’s best to consider these with an open mind before you choose one, the other or perhaps even both.

It looks relatively simple in design but is very small, compact and portable. They are electrical (though there are non-electrical models too) appliances that help to reduce and manage the humidity level in the air. They are used for both comfort and health reasons, but more importantly with regards to caravans, can remove musty odours and stop mildew and mould from growing.Compressor Dehumidifiers – these work in a similar way to fridges and draw in the air which is then passed through a filter and cold coils. The cold coils cause the water present in the air to condense and drip into the reservoir inside. Afterwards, the air is then reheated and blown out again. The Kampa Damp Buster Campervan Dehumidifier Moisture Drain will help prevent condensation from forming inside a VW van when not in use. Fluctuating outdoor temperatures can cause condensation and moisture to form internally even when a van has a storage cover on, this can lead to damp, mildew and mould. The Damp Buster helps to reduce moisture in the air by trapping it in a large capacity reservoir after converting it to brine via dehumidifying crystals. The brine can then be safely disposed of down a sink or drain. One of the most common misunderstandings people have regarding caravan dehumidifiers is that because caravans, even in storage, have fresh air constantly streaming inside them they will always be working. Unless you buy a dehumidifier that does not have a cut-off feature, it will act just the same as it does in your home. Obviously, it is up to you to make sure that the windows and doors are properly sealed, but if it is the right kind it should switch off when the pre-decided level of humidity in your caravan has been achieved. The Damp Buster helps to reduce moisture in the air by trapping it in the large capacity reservoir after converting it to brine which can be safely disposed of.
