Minimal effect: minus one to 2% relative humidity 2 owls

My bedroom is in the basement, so it collects especially in the summer months a lot of humidity here. As I already 65 to 70 percent have measured this spring, the UHU dehumidifier should create remedy. According to advertising, it is designed for rooms up to 80 square meters. Since my bedroom has only 13 square meters, I thought it was part of a perfect solution. After a week of use then the disillusionment: Instead of 65 to 70 percent humidity, there are now 64 to 69.

Okay, I thought, then I just order a second UHU dehumidifier - then it ought to give a striking effect. After another week with two UHU containers hardly better values: still 64 to 69 percent humidity. About a small cup after a week full: in containers Although collects water, but only minimally.

The day before yesterday I then ordered an electric dehumidifier. The result after only two hours (!): The humidity is only 55 to 60 percent. The unit has drawn at this time about twice the amount of water from the air, as two UHU dehumidifier in two weeks.

Conclusion: For small spaces (1 to 8 square meters) could achieve a reduction in the humidity of two to three percent of UHU dehumidifier might. For larger spaces that are to be effectively dehumidified, the granules seems rather inappropriate.
