Electronic Control PanelDC12 has an electronic control panel with intelligent display and touch button technology. Manage humidity levels via a 'Touch Button' control pad with LED display allowing total control of your appliance. Set the required level via the 'Humidity Display' and benefit from other Self Diagnosis indicators such as 'Clean Me' filter indicators. Manage controlled sessions too with the convenient 2 and 4 hour timer function. |
Continuous Hose (optional)You may use the hose provided (one metre length of 14 mm diameter) for continuous drainage to a drain or sink to save emptying the tank regularly. You will need to unscrew the cap at the back of the dehumidifier, remove the rubber bung from the nozzle and attach the hose into the drain connector. |
Water TankThe DC12 has a 3.5 Litre tank capacity, positioned at the front of the dehumidifier. There is no need to move the dehumidifier when removing the tank to empty. There is a lid covering the tank to avoid spillage. To remove the water tank, slide it out gently by gripping the water tank from both sides and lift it carefully. |

Condensation
Condensation is formed when warm moist air hits cold surfaces (windows, mirrors, walls, etc). Moisture in the air can also be caused by daily routines like cooking, showering, drying clothes indoor, even opening windows on a hot humid day, rainy day and when snow melts. Condensation can be reduced by using a dehumidifier to reduce the water content in the air (moisture).
Heavy condensation can cause damage to door & window frames, can increase humidity level causing air borne bacteria & discomfort.
Controlling Mould
Humidity when condensates, can result in damp areas which if left untreated will in turn cause mould and mildew. Mould in your house is very unhealthy such as black mould that can cause a multitude of health problems.
Your best defence against health problems such as asthma or arthritis that can arise from mould is to keep the humidity level in your house at a constant level.
Other Applications of Compressor Dehumidifier Cleaner Air
- Use if you suffer from allergies (caused by air borne bacteria).
- Use on a very humid and hot day when you feel uncomfortable because humidity can cause sweat evaporation process to slow down.

This unit came in at about the right price, with the large tank and built in humidistat really selling it compared to some of the other cheap models. We have ours on the landing just outside our bathroom, and leave it on set to 50% all the time on the lower fan speed setting. It flicks on and off every hour or so just keeping the air free from excess humidity. From the bedroom or the living room, you can hear only a quiet hum which isn't too intrusive.
After showers, we open the bathroom door, turn up the fan speed, and force it to run continuously using the 2 hour timer option. It really shines here, eliminating condensation from the bathroom within minutes, and dries our towels which we hang over the banisters in only a few hours. With laundry which we air on the landing, it also does an amazing job, drying them within a day which is a lot quicker than the two or three days it used to take at our flat.
The only thing that stops this from being a perfect product is the occasional glitches with the humidistat, where it will either trigger the unit to come on when the humidity hasn't risen above the target, or it will keep running for a long while after it has fallen below the target. Minor complaints. but I'd rather not be using extra energy when it isn't needed.
In conclusion though, I'm really pleased with this dehumidifier. It keeps humidity in the house under control, and so far we have had no observable damp or mould to deal with so it's certainly doing its job as a preventative measure - and much better than the far smaller moisture traps you can get from the supermarket. I definitely recommend this product for use in your home to keep moisture levels under control, especially in homes with internal bathrooms.

I have it in my kitchen which, in winter, is prone to excessive humidity and so mould can start to creep into corners and such like. This dehumidifier has done a good job of reducing the amount of humidity in the kitchen when in use and there has been a huge reduction in mould appearing now. So very happy with the product.
Easy to remove the water catchment tray and throw the water away. It is quite interesting to see how much water is actually extracted from the air.
