Features

WHAT IS A 2IN1 DEHUMIDIFIER WITH AIR PURIFIER?

The Smart Dry 2in1 Viral Protect (LAD708) is a Dehumidifier and Air Purifier in one

The Dehumidifier function is to extract moisture to reduce and maintain humidity levels in the environment to provide a level of comfort in your surroundings. Excess moisture in an environment is problematic and can develop into mould and mildew.

The Smart Dry 2in1 Viral Protect is efficient for large rooms and has high dehumidifying ability to extract 21L of water volume daily and a large 6.5L water tank.

The Air Purifier’s function is to clean the air of impurities such as airborne allergens and dust particles. The Air Purification function can be used with dehumidification or purify only.

How the Smart Dry 2in1 Viral Protect Works?

The Smart Dry 2in1 Viral Protect regulates the relative humidity of your home by extracting moisture to reduce and maintain humidity levels in the environment, passing it over cooled evaporator coils causing the moisture to condense into water. The water is dispensed into the water tank or through the drainage hose. During this process, the Air Purifier filters and cleans the air through the 3 stage air filtration to deliver cleaner air back into the surrounding environment.

What is Relative Humidity?

Relative humidity is the amount of water vapour in the air and it is commonly expressed as a percentage of the maximum amount of water vapour that the air can hold at a given temperature. A comfortable %RH level is commonly considered to be between 40-60%RH

Assembly
