PRODUCT FEATURES

The Cli~Mate Air Dryer Dehumidifier is different to Cli~Mate’s
compressor range of dehumidifiers. Classified as a desiccant
dehumidifier, there are key functions and benefits that set it apart
from traditional dehumidifiers.

Traditional dehumidifiers lose their moisture absorbing
effectiveness as the temperature drops. They work well at higher
temperatures above 20

The Cli~Mate Air Dryer Dehumidifier on the other hand, is not
affected by temperature and is able to extract the same amount of
moisture at any temperature above 5

The Cli~Mate Air Dryer Dehumidifier does not contain a
compressor therefore it is lighter, smaller, quieter easier to handle
as well as more environmentally friendly.

Unit functions include dehumidification and ionization which is
suitable for use in cool to cold, damp environments which are
susceptible to high dampness, including cellar, laundry and marine
environments. During dehumidification, Ionization eliminates indoor
odours, creating a fresh and clean living environment.

Units relative humidity setting turns unit automatically off when
the moisture in the air reaches the set position and purification
setting.
