Dehumidifier
Experts have established that the optimum environmental conditions for our well being and for the home are obtained between 40% and 60% relative humidity. With very low temperatures, you are recommended to heat the room even minimally. This considerably increases the dehumidifying power of the appliance. With heating, the condensation formed by the water vapour on windows and other cold surfaces evaporates into the air to be collected by the dehumidifier.
