Product Information

Our Extended3 Year Warranty from Buy It Direct gives you the reassurance that if an electrical or mechanical fault arises you won't be exposed to costly repair bills. Our dedicated technical team will take care of your dehumidifier. If you’re looking for a portable model, it’s worth looking at desiccant dehumidifiers– particularly if you need a machine that work efficiently in colder temperatures. Desiccant models are often around 7kg. This is an excellent dehumidifier that is also remarkably quiet. It’s an excellent choice if what you need is a dehumidifier for normal house temperatures.'- Which?

Or, more realistically, you'll never really notice all the good it's going - which is far preferable to finding damp or excess condensation damaging the walls and becoming a playground for potentially harmful mould growth. That kind of peace of mind makes it worth every penny. The new MeacoDry 'ABC' range offers the multi-award winning Meaco brand of dehumidifiers at an unbeatable entry level price. Featuring the latest low-noise and energy saving technology the 12 litre MeacoDry 'ABC' is the quietest compressor dehumidifiers from Meaco, making it the most effective and practical dehumidifying solution for the home. If noise is something you’re worried about when buying a dehumidifier, the ABC is an excellent option.A complaint we have is the water tank isn’t as convenient to empty as other models. On the plus side, the water tank has a plastic cover to prevent spillages. Portability The advantage of the size, drying power and capacity is that the Arete One can dehumidify larger areas than your average 10-12L dehumidifier. I’ve had it working on an upstairs landing and a large downstairs hallway, and in both cases, it did a solid job of controlling humidity and drying out areas affected by damp or mould, although in these sorts of environments you need to leave it running for longer periods to make an impact. Yes there is an option of a charcoal filter to remove smells and volatile organic compounds from the air The Meaco MeacoDry ABC Range dehumidifier does an excellent job at extracting water at room temperature. You’re unlikely to ever achieve the 12L maximum extraction, as this requires a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius and 80% relative humidity, but the machine is brilliant in the typical UK home environment. In night mode I still found noise levels too high to sleep with it running in the same room, but it was fine running in a room downstairs or in another room, with only a barely perceptible low hum crossing walls or floors. MeacoDry Arete One review: What could be improved?

We should point out that I took these sound readings using a smartphone app inside a home with wooden floors, and that sound levels will vary depending on your carpet, curtains and furnishings. Meaco’s own noise measurements, taken in a sealed chamber using calibrated microphones at 1m from all four sides, measured noise levels at between 38dB and 40dB for the 20L model and 40 and 42dB for the 25L model. It has a similar RRP to the Meaco 12L Low Energy, so the right option depends on which you prefer. If you’re looking for a quiet machine or a more attractive design, the ABC is the better option. It’s also slightly faster at extracting water than the 12L Low Energy. Protect your dehumidifier against the cost and hassle of unexpected failure and give yourself some added peace of mind with one of our great value extended warranties! You can be assured that your dehumidifier will be covered against failure for the duration of your policy.

It’s not perfect though. Like all refrigerant models, it struggles at low temperatures (look at desiccant dehumidifiers instead). The rear-facing water tank can also be inconvenient to remove. Energy Efficient costs just 2.7p/hour based on the UK average tariff of 15p/kWhEliminates Moisture – Ideal for damp and condensation

degrees Celsius– 12.66 litres per day at 80% relative humidity, 7.82 litres per day at 60% relative humidity As mentioned, the water tank stores 4.8L and simply slides in and out of the body of the unit. On even the heaviest day of testing I didn’t have to empty it more than once, although I’ve generally been working at room temperatures of around 22°C with humidity levels starting at around 62-67%. If you’re dehumidifying a seriously damp space or one that’s been flooded, then you may have to empty more often. The unit also supports continuous drainage, although you’ll need your own hose and a nearby drain or sink.What do you do if you already produce some of the quietest and most energy-efficiency dehumidifiers on the market?
