Dehumidifiers for Cold Rooms and Cold Storage
Cold rooms or cold halls - in restaurants, large kitchens, distribution warehouses, schools, and similar places - preserve food and keep it fresh. However, if warm, unsaturated air enters and condenses, it can negatively affect both the cold room and the raw materials. At a certain humidity level, microbial growth occurs as bacteria and mold find conditions to grow, which can violate food storage regulations.
Why Do Moisture Problems Occur in Cold Rooms?
Temperature Difference
When you open and close the door to a cold room, moisture-bearing air enters the cold space. This air can condense on colder surfaces such as pipes, ceilings, components, and on the food itself.
Food Naturally Releases Moisture
Many foods naturally release moisture, especially when room-temperature items are brought into the cooler environment. This increases the humidity inside the cold room and contributes to condensation formation.
Desiccant Dehumidifiers Are a Good Solution
Regular condensate dehumidifiers are not suitable for colder environments due to the risk of ice formation; they work better at room temperature. Desiccant dehumidifiers use a different technology that is more effective in cool and cold environments, down to -20 degrees. These dehumidifiers keep the humidity at the right level and prevent condensation that can ultimately lead to microbial growth - in other words, they are perfect for achieving good hygiene standards in cold rooms, slaughterhouses, and cold storage.
When you have a space where both humidity and temperature need to be controlled, it is appropriate to install the desiccant dehumidifier outside the space and direct the humid air to the machine using a process air duct and hose. The dry air that then goes back into the cooled space can advantageously pass through a longer dry air hose to avoid introducing extra heat.
We Offer Desiccant Dehumidifiers for Small and Large Spaces
Our small desiccant dehumidifier EvoDry 6H 2.0 is ideal for small spaces such as a cold room. For large and more demanding environments, such as cold storage in distribution centers, a dehumidifier that can handle larger areas is needed. Our dehumidifiers for industrial and professional environments meet these needs. They are suitable for dehumidification from 1,200 m³ to 5,000 m³, where, for example, the EvoDry 180 Pro has a dehumidification capacity of 187 l/day.
