Product Information

While it’s not loud enough to really disturb the peace, it’s certainly not one you’d want to leave running overnight in your bedroom. It’s due to the cooler air mixing with central heating which creates condensation and therefore mould. It filters the surrounding air at 135m3 per hour, making it ideal for people who suffer from airborne allergies.

So, while we have some reservations about the company itself, there's no doubt the CD20LE is an excellent dehumidifier.

High humidity often occurs when there’s excess moisture and condensation, which can be caused by various factors, such as drying your clothes on radiators, as well as leaks and poor ventilation. A very short bit of plastic hosing is supplied to use with the continuous drain port (a tab that snaps off and allows insertion of hosing into the tank). When the temperature drops it really starts to struggle though - even more than the average refrigerant. Yes it's quiet but you probably wouldn't want to sleep in the same room with it, or even within earshot.

Even so, let's take a look at some of the company's top models and see how they compare to other dehumidifiers.Then, if the model allows, set your chosen humidity target – when it comes to inside the home, it’s generally recommended humidity levels be no higher than 60 per cent.
