How to use
Please refer to the operating manual's attached for proper installation & optimal operation. A dehumidifier is a must for sealed infected co2 rooms.
Ultimate satisfaction depends on the quality of installation and a thorough understanding of this equipment. The dehumidifier is built around tested engineering principles and has passed thorough internal and 3rd party inspections for quality of workmanship and function
Q&A
Is the dehumidifier water safe to use?
The water comes out as R.O./pure water. From test results only extremely low levels of metals were present (safe for human consumption). We would however recommend running the dehumidifier for a week with out using the output water. This ensures that there are no oils and residue that might be left in the system from production.

Do I need ducting for humidity?
Air movement is needed to equalize temperature in the grow room but humidity diffuses rapidly throughout a room all by itself. This means dehumidifiers require no ductwork in most grow rooms.
How much moisture must be removed?
Plants transpire over 97% of the water they receive so for most grow rooms the amount of water you give your plants is approximately the amount you must remove each day.
For example 30 plants each receiving 2L per day comes to approx. 58.2L water removal per day.
The air conditioner argument
Air conditioning can remove some moisture when lights are on, temperatures are near 26°C and there is a need for cooling.
Using an air conditioner to dehumidify a room when the lights are off is not a good idea. Running an air conditioner to dry a room when the lights are off will often freeze-up the A/C system and will certainly consume excessive energy.
A/C systems can sometimes remove some water but they are not being as effective at cooling. And, normally, if your A/C system is running, it’s because your room needs cooling.
The best strategy for precise, efficient environmental control in a grow room: Use your A/C system to control room temperature and use your dehumidification system to control room humidity. Anything less is a gamble.
