The FDC32 dehumidifier impresses with its high-quality internal technology, which is usually found in significantly more expensive devices. With features such as an aluminum impeller and a tube evaporator, it offers top performance for both private use in basements and garages as well as for professional water damage restoration.
The dehumidification unit is suitable for rooms up to 70 m². On the front of the housing, there is the hygrostat dial, with which the target humidity can be adjusted continuously. If the humidity is correct, the device pauses (the ventilation also stops) until the room humidity rises again. The dryer is one of the quieter dehumidifiers and is therefore also suitable for apartments, offices, and retail spaces.
The housing is made of metal, the front is made of robust plastic. In the lower area of the front, there is a flap integrated, behind which is the spacious 5.5-liter condensate bucket. This collects the extracted water and mechanically interrupts operation at full capacity using a float. The air intake is at the back, and the dry air is expelled at the front of the housing. A removable industrial filter cleans the air at the intake area from dirt and particles. The filter is also durable and can be cleaned with water. The dryer weighs 25 kg, stands on 4 wheels, and can be easily carried using the front handle recess and the rear cable holder.
"Very noticeable is the good performance in low humidity areas, where this model still extracts water from the air, in which other dehumidifiers have long ceased to produce a drop (according to our tests, clearly below the threshold of 30% relative humidity). It is suitable for unattended continuous operation."
It is suitable
• as a dehumidifier for areas up to 70m² for private and commercial use
• for drying water damage
• for unattended continuous operation
• for operation with an external timer, if you only want to run the dryer during off-peak hours, for example.
dehumidification performance
The dryer can be used over a wide temperature range from +5 °C to +35 °C thanks to its advanced hot gas defrosting, although, as with all condensation dryers, the dehumidifying power decreases in cooler environments. Examples of dehumidification performance under different (constant) ambient conditions:
30 °C / 80% r.H. = 26.0 Liters / 24h
27 °C / 60% r.H. = 13.1 Liters / 24h
20 °C / 60% r.H. = 10.0 liters / 24h (Power consumption: 420 W)
10 °C / 70% r.H. = 6.1 Liters / 24h
(r.H.=relative humidity)
Our opinion
Top quality at a bargain price. Very solid, durable workmanship, a quiet operating noise, and good performance even in low humidity ranges. The hose connection for the direct drainage of the condensate is somewhat awkwardly designed.
