The DC18 can help to control air humidity and dry wet items in your home very efficiently by:
- Drying laundry indoors
- Drying property after a flood or leak
- Keeping humidity at <60 per cent RH to control bacteria growth
- Avoiding fluctuating humidity to control warping and rusting by preserving doors, paintings and furniture

Electronic control panelDC18 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 DC18 has a 3.5 L 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. |

Clean by gently brushing or use a vacuum cleaner. | Cable tidy and castorsDC18 comes with a power cord hanger at the back of the unit to keep the cable tidy when not in use. DC18 has easy glide castors enabling moving between rooms a simple process where there is no need for lifting. |

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 and window frames, can increase humidity level causing air borne bacteria and 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 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
– 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
