Every year during the rainy season, the raindrops in Jiangnan always have a sticky touch, with water droplets oozing out of the walls, clothes not drying, and furniture mold... These scenes make "dehumidification" a compulsory course for southern families.
In traditional perception, air conditioners are regarded as the "master key" to dehumidification, but more and more families have discovered that dehumidification by relying solely on air conditioners is like scooping floods with a small spoon - treating symptoms but not the root cause.
The dehumidifier is quietly upgrading from the "supporting role of air conditioning" to the "firm demand for humidity" for families in high-humidity areas.
Air conditioner dehumidification a "false proposition" compromise
The dehumidification function of air conditioners is essentially a "refrigeration accessories": the water vapor in the air is liquefied and discharged through a condenser, but this process must be accompanied by cooling.
When the air conditioner is dehumidified, the room temperature may drop below 20℃, causing the body to feel cold and the elderly and children to catch cold. Low temperatures will inhibit the evaporation of sweat in the human body, which will aggravate the humidity, forming a vicious cycle of "the more you dehumidify, the colder you get, the more you get, the wet you get."
A 1.5-horsepower air conditioner has a power of about 1000W, and it consumes 1 kilometer of electricity for one hour of continuous operation, while the dehumidification volume is only 0.5-1 liter/hour. In contrast, the household dehumidifier has a power of 200-500W, and the dehumidification volume can reach 10-20 liters per day, and its energy consumption is only 1/3 of that of the air conditioner.
Air conditioners rely on enclosed spaces for dehumidification, while small areas such as cloakrooms, basements, and bathrooms cannot be covered. The problem of drying clothes in the rainy season is that air conditioners are even more powerless - after the moisture on the surface of the clothes evaporates, the water vapor remains indoors, which in turn increases the humidity.
"Humidity Insurance" in high-humidity areas of household dehumidifiers
In areas with an average annual humidity of more than 75% (such as the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta), dehumidifiers have been upgraded from "optional home appliances" to "family standard", and their core values are reflected in:
Excessive humidity can easily breed mold and dust mites, causing respiratory diseases. The dehumidifier can stabilize the humidity in the golden range of 40%-60%, reducing allergens. For example, mother and infant families can control the humidity in the children's room to 50% to prevent eczema; the humidity in the bedroom of rheumatoid patients can reduce the humidity in the bedroom to 45% to relieve joint pain.
In a 30㎡ bedroom, the dehumidifier can drain 1-2 liters of water in one hour, which is equivalent to 4 bottles of mineral water. With universal wheels, it can be moved to damp and severely affected areas such as kitchens and bathrooms, and even used for drying clothes - hanging clothes near the air outlet of the dehumidifier, it will dry in 3 hours without moldy smell.
Calculated based on the average daily operation of 8 hours, the dehumidifier consumes about 48 degrees per month (at 300W of power), which is less than 1/5 of the air conditioner. For regions with humid climates up to 3-4 months, the cost advantage is significant.
Industrial dehumidifier "Humidity Firewall" in factory workshop
If household dehumidifiers are "small and beautiful", industrial dehumidifiers are "big and strong". In electronic manufacturing, food processing, warehousing and logistics industries, humidity control is directly related to product quality and production safety:
Electronic workshop: Humidity exceeding 60% may cause circuit board short circuit. Industrial dehumidifiers can control humidity between 30% and 40% to avoid moisture from precision instruments.
Drug warehouse: Humidity fluctuations will affect the stability of the drug. The dehumidifier and the constant temperature system are linked to ensure that the humidity meets the standard 24-hours.
Underground garage: Water accumulation in the rainy season is prone to corrosion in vehicles, and large dehumidifiers can quickly drain the ground moisture to prevent slip accidents.
Taking the C80 model as an example, the SIAL dehumidifier is equipped with an international brand gyro compressor. It has strong performance, strong power, and excellent dehumidification capabilities. Its dehumidification area can reach 180 square meters. Whether it is a large warehouse, production workshop or other industrial places, it can quickly reduce air humidity. It has excellent low temperature adaptability and can operate continuously and stably in a low temperature environment of 0-35℃, completely breaking the limitations of traditional dehumidifiers that are prone to freezing and strikes under low temperature conditions.
The moisture in the rainy season is essentially a collision between natural climate and modern life. The cooling and dehumidification mode of air conditioners is more like a "compromise solution" for high-humidity environments; and the popularity of dehumidifiers marks the family's refined pursuit of humidity management. From the Jiangnan water town to the coast of South China, from the bedroom corner to the factory workshop, dehumidifiers are redefining "humidity comfort" - it is not only an emergency tool for the plum rainy season, but also a long-term investment in healthy life.
