Best Dehumidifier for 2012
The 2012 best dehumidifier ratings are found here.
Compare reviews on home, basement, RV, energy
efficient, and room dehumidifiers.
You know that proper humidity in your home is
healthy for you, your family, your pets, plants and
even furniture. You want to know which one will do
the best job, at the best price.
There are many factors to consider when looking at
reviews for the best dehumidifier for your home.
What size do you need? Will it be used only during
summer, or also when the temps can dip below 40
degrees? Is noise a factor for your dehumidifier?
Because there are a number of considerations when
looking for the best dehumidifier for your home or
RV, there is not just one that can be said it the
best. It depends on your situation and needs.
Portable, or small, dehumidifiers are best for when
you need one in a bedroom or nursery room. My top
recommendation on an easy to find dehumidifier for
smaller spaces is the Frigidaire 25 pint
dehumidifier. It is energy efficient, which is great
for the environment and to reduce overall operating
costs. It has an auto shut off when full, which is
also great.
Generally, for a large area of your home, you will
want a dehumidifier which has a capacity of around
40-70 pints per day. If you live where it is very
humid, then opt for the high end of that.
For your home or large basement, I recommend the
Santa Fe Whole Home Humidifier. It is expensive, yet
it gets high ratings, and has an automatic pump, so
you never have to worry about empting it. It works
on up to 2200 sq. ft. and removes up to 90 pints a
day.
If you will be using a dehumidifier when the temps
in your basement might dip below 55 degrees, I
recommend low-temperature
dehumidifiers. Dehumidifiers are meant to be
used above this temp, so you'll need these special
humidifiers for anything lower.
