Dehumidifier Hire

What is a dehumidifier? What does a dehumidifier do?

Dehumidifiers are machines that are built to lower the humidity in an enclosed space—that is to remove moisture from the air. Simply put, this machine takes in humid air pushes it through freezing coils. This brings the air to dew point where the moisture turns into liquid and is collected. This water is pushed through an outlet hose which would have been placed in a drain or sink. From there the air is pushed through a heater element, to heat the air. This heated air now has a bigger capacity to hold moisture. This dried & heated air is pushed out back into the environment, ready to absorb more moisture and be collected by the dehumidifier again.

Commercial dehumidifier / industrial dehumidifier

Agile equipment offers reliable commercial dehumidifiers that are able to be operated days-on-end in order to achieve your drying needs. These dehumidifiers are built in durable rotational moulded polymer chassis casing, ready for the toughest of commercial settings and quite capable in residential settings. Even our small dehumidifier with air movers is capable of drying a bedroom of moisture. Our IAQ Pro Midas 70L is an all-rounder dehumidifier (medium dehumidifier) which can dry both large and small spaces a like. We recommend the large dehumidifiers (like the IAQ Pro Atlas 90L dehumidifier) for large water damage events, especially commercial settings where open spaces are involved. These dehumidifiers remove up to 45L/70L/90L of water a day from moisture heavy environments such as flood events.

Dehumidifier for mould

Our dehumidifiers are effective at removing moisture from surfaces and the air. As mould requires moisture in order to grow, they can be effective at mitigating the spread of mould and future mould growth. We strongly recommend cleaning the mould from the environment before operating a dehumidifier as mould spores can be spread with drying equipment. Remember, cleaning mould may solve your problem temporarily but the mould may come back in force later—this is why we need dehumidifiers to remove the moisture that helps mould grow back.
