We use the dehumidifier in our small bathroom. Despite windows all steamed up here especially after showering often. It often takes a long time until this moisture through tilted windows (no whole open as possible used on the pan as a shelf board) is out again. Leave the door open for lack of space is not an option. Thus long was the consideration for a dehumidifier. This does now wonderfully his service, thus preventing mold in the room. Because it is independent of power, we could quite easily put him on the top shelf and "forgot" to the granules is depleted. Herrlich. :)
