What is a Desiccant Dehumidifier?Updated a year ago

Desiccant Dehumidifiers are recommended for colder environments like garages, conservatories and basements as they work at lower temperatures. Since they do not use a cold surface to condense and collect water like a Compressor Dehumidifier, they are much more efficient in cold environments.

Desiccant is a hygroscopic substance that is used to induce or sustain a state of dryness in its vicinity; it is the opposite of a humectant. Commonly encountered pre-packaged desiccants are solids that absorb water.
