Dehumidifier for Storage Rooms

A storage room is a place where you want to keep things, and they should not be damaged by moisture, start to smell, or, in the worst case, be attacked by mold or rot. Whether it's old furniture, books, textiles, crafts, Christmas decorations, or summer outdoor furniture, it's important to protect them from high humidity. A good solution is to install a dehumidifier and let it control the relative humidity.

Why Does Moisture Occur in Storage Rooms?

Moisture in storage rooms can occur for several reasons. Often, a lower temperature is maintained in a storage room because it may seem unnecessary to heat the space since no one will be there anyway. Cold basement and attic rooms can be particularly susceptible to moisture. Many storage rooms are also uninsulated cold rooms that stand separate from the building, making them extra prone to moisture.

Condensation occurs when warm and humid air is cooled down, for example, if it is allowed to rise to a cold attic. Common causes are poor ventilation, insulation, or other deficiencies, such as in the sealing layer or construction. Additionally, climate, temperature fluctuations, poor drainage, and ground moisture can create moisture problems.

Preventing Moisture

The best way to prevent moisture in the storage room is to lower the relative humidity. Raising the temperature a few degrees can make a big difference. Also, ensure good ventilation so the air can be exchanged regularly, or invest in a dehumidifier, which is the easiest solution if you don't want to increase the heat. But remember, if you already have rot or mold, you must always address the underlying problem first.

A Desiccant Dehumidifier Keeps Your Storage Room Dry and Fresh

Energy-efficient desiccant dehumidifiers are excellent for a storage room and keep the humidity level in check. They use desiccant technology, making them very effective at lower temperatures and ideal for cooler environments such as storage rooms and sheds. With a hygrometer or control panel, you have full control over the humidity, with alarms indicating if the environment is too humid. This way, microbial growth cannot occur, and the room and your belongings remain dry and fresh.

For a smaller space like a storage room, our dehumidifier EvoDry 6H 2.0 is an excellent choice. It is compact, efficient, easy to install, and suitable for up to 100 m³. If you need to dehumidify a larger space, you can choose one of our more powerful models, such as EvoDry RCF 12 G1. All our dehumidifiers come with a three-year return-to-base warranty.
