What is Dehumidification?
Dehumidification is the process of removing excess moisture from the air in your home and is primarily accomplished through the use of a dehumidifier. Dehumidifiers work by combining three basic principles: cooling the air, adsorption, and absorption. Most home dehumidifiers–like Danby, Soleus, and Alen–work on the first principle. By using coolant, dehumidifiers cool the air below the dew point which causes the moisture in the air to condense. The water is captured in a drain bucket. This same principle is also true for commercial/industrial dehumidifiers. Ebac dehumidifiers come equipped with larger fan motors, drain buckets, or internal condensate pumps to condense, collect and drain water away. Smaller dehumidifiers, such as our Eva-Dry Dehumidifiers, work through adsorption. Adsorption is the process whereby chemicals, particles, or whatever you are trying to remove adheres to the outer surface of an adsorbent, generally called desiccant. A porous, odorless, non-toxic and safe s
