SOME NOTIONS ON HUMIDITY Air always contains a certain amount of water in the form of vapour. This determines the level of humidity in an atmosphere. The capacity of the air to hold water vapour increases with temperature.This is why in our homes, as soon as the temperature decreases, the vapour contained in the air condenses, as is evident on the colder surfaces in the room, such as the windows, walls etc.
Fig.1 Fig.2 2 1 INSTALLATION Position the appliance in the room to be dehumidified. A free space of at least 2 ft (61 cm) must be left at the front of the dehumidifier, so as not to block the air outlet. For efficient ventilation a space of about 2-4 in (5-10 cm) should be left at the back of the appliance. The condensate can be drained in one of the following ways: A) Draining into the tank The condensate can be drained directly into the tank. The tank can be easily removed (fig.1).
