Desiccant Dehumidifier
DryFan Technology
There is no compressor in a DryFan desiccant dehumidifier. It just has a rotating wheel with a large surface area for air to pass through it side-to-side. The surface is impregnated with “zeolite”. Zeolite is a patented chemical that has the property of adsorbing moisture in most temperatures but gives up that moisture when heat is applied. Therefore, if we continuously dry part of the wheel & turn it continuously, most of the wheel is always free to adsorb moisture.
The small section of the wheel that is purged of moisture uses hot air & sometimes around 15% of the dried air is turned around, heated and use to purge the moisture.
Moisture can then be exhausted away to the outside as vapour not condensate.

Below 20°C / 68°F desiccant can work 5 times better than compressor dehumidifiers
Desiccants work even below 4°C / 36°F when compressor dehumidifiers stop
Not risk of secondary flooding from water containers with desiccants
Less moving parts and less components means safer & tend to last longer than normal home dehumidifiers
EPD30 / DH8XX
EPD50 / DH12XX
At normal temperature
e.g. DH12XX / EPD50 work as well as a 25 litre / 50pt compressor dehumidifiers at normal temperatures of 20°C/68°F.
Desiccants work significantly better at lower temperatures than 20°C/68°F
.
EPD200/DH35XX
EPD150/DH25XX
At normal temperature
e.g. DH35XX / EPD200 work as well as a 25 litre / 50pt compressor dehumidifiers at normal temperatures of 20°C/68°F.
Desiccants work significantly better at lower temperatures than 20°C/68°F

CLICK HEREDesiccants are ideal for floods & restoration where there is often no heating
Desiccants don’t produce water only vapour so not affected by ice or frost
Compressor dehumidifiers perform best in relatively warm temperaturs.
Drying time for flooded areas often faster with desiccants especially if unheated
