You must be acknowledged that we can not always provide the definitive solution to certain situations and applications as there are certain variables that we can not fully appreciate.

Notes on advertised extraction rates

Compressor dehumidifiers work on the principle of moisture condensing on a cold refrigerant pipe inside the unit. As a result, compressor dehumidifiers work well in very warm conditions, but as the temperature falls so their effectiveness drops off dramatically. All compressor driven units are rated in test conditions of 80% humidity and, critically, 30 degrees centigrade temperature.
 
A three degree drop in temperature to 27 degrees results in up to a 50% loss of performance with Compressor units. At 21 degrees centigrade (which is room temperature) a compressor unit will tend to extract around 30% of its theoretical maximum. Below 15 degrees centigrade most compressor units extract about a tenth of their theoretical maximum and in cooler temperatures below eight degrees extraction rates reduce even further.
 
Therefore a compressor unit rated at 20 litres per day extraction will extract up to 5 litres in a normal domestic environment; a unit rated at 18 litres will extract up to 4.5 litres and a 10 litre will extract up to 2.5 litres.

AirControl Systems is not responsible for the amount of extraction that will be achieved as this will vary with conditions in which the appliance is used.
