Rating of the best dehumidifiers for the home in 2022 (TOP 6)

In this ranking I have compiled the 6 best dehumidifiers for 2022. Only the best models from different price ranges got into my TOP — from 14 to 40 thousand rubles. When selecting models, I paid attention to such characteristics as the number of operating modes, the presence of an air filter, the volume of the condensate collection tank, performance and security options. And in order to be as objective as possible, to determine the usability, effectiveness and identify the pros and cons of each model, I studied customer reviews and expert reviews.

Table of participants in the rating of dehumidifiers for an apartment in 2022

What to look for when choosing an air dryer?

• Performance. This is the most important indicator on which the rate of air dehumidification depends. According to this indicator, the area of ​​u200bu200bthe room for which it will be most effective is also determined. On average, household appliances can provide a performance of 12–24 liters per day. This means that the dehumidifier will be able to remove 12–24 liters of moisture from the air in a day of operation. This option is suitable for rooms over 40 square meters. m.
• Air exchange/area. The larger the area of ​​​​the room, the greater the air exchange rate should be. This parameter shows how much air the device can process. For a room of about 30 sq. m air exchange can be 120 m3 / h.
• Noise level. This parameter is purely practical. The quieter the device works, the more comfortable for a person. Household dehumidifiers usually do not generate noise above 45-55 dB. This value does not cause discomfort, it can be compared with the noise level during a conversation.
• Hygrostat. The presence of this sensor allows the device to work in automatic mode — independently turn on and off depending on the humidity of the air and the set value that needs to be reached.
• Additional options. Some models of dehumidifiers are equipped with additional functions, for example, disinfection, air ionization. Many devices have the ability to carry out self-diagnostics, block the control panel, prevent the system from freezing when the air temperature drops, etc.

FUNAI YAMANEKO (RAD-Y60T7E)

The sixth place in the TOP is occupied by the FUNAI YAMANEKO dehumidifier (RAD-Y60T7E). This is the most expensive model in the ranking, with an elongated body, equipped with wheels and two comfortable handles on the sides. This is the most productive dehumidifier in the ranking — up to 60 liters per day. It is equipped with a large, removable 8-liter condensate collection tank, which is equipped with an easy-to-carry handle. For long autonomous operation, condensate can be drained into the drainage system.

The control panel is placed on the top of the case. It is represented by touch control buttons, advanced indication and display. The model is able to very accurately maintain a given level of air humidity due to intelligent tracking of current parameters. The control panel can be blocked from accidental switching by children. The device has a timer, several preset operating modes, in addition to automatic. It is worth highlighting a separate program for drying clothes. At the same time, the user does not need to choose the optimal humidity and fan speed himself — there are automatic settings that are typical for drying rooms and laundries.

Another important feature is the presence of swaying blinds. So, when they are turned on, the air is more evenly distributed throughout the room, air flows are regulated. Equipped with a self-diagnosis mode, at temperatures below +5 degrees, the compressor turns off and the defrost mode is activated. And I would like to point out special coating of aluminum plates of the GOLD Fin heat exchangerwhich protects them from moisture and aggressive substances in humid air.

Price — 40,000 rubles. Due to the high performance, the model is suitable not only for domestic, but also for commercial use: installations in laundries, swimming pools, saunas. A dehumidifier with excellent equipment, a convenient control panel, many automatic modes and settings, a large capacity for condensate. It has only a few drawbacks — it is noisier in operation when compared with other rating models, and its cost.

Zanussi ZDH-25L

Fifth place goes to Zanussi ZDH-25L. The model is equipped with a hygrometer for accurate monitoring of humidity levels. Works in three modes: dehumidification to the set humidity value, continuous operation and automatic. Wherein you can choose the fan speed, which determines the noise level. If necessary, you can set the shutdown time using the timer — from 1 to 24 hours. The dehumidifier has a fairly high performance — 25 liters per day, so it is perfect for rooms up to 30 sq. m.

Designed not only to reduce the humidity in the room, but also helps to dry clothes, as well as eliminate unpleasant odors, including tobacco smoke. To implement the latter function, a carbon filter is used, which effectively absorbs odors, chemical compounds, carbon monoxide and formaldehyde. The appliance has an internal drying mode. It must be run as a prevention of mold formation inside the device, as well as before a long break in work. This program is designed for 1 hour, but it can be stopped if you need to switch to another mode of operation. The dehumidifier is made in an attractive design, equipped with a folding handle and wheels for easy movement.

The top panel contains indicators and a display, allowing you to monitor the operation parameters and monitor the status of the device. For example, about the need to drain the condensate from the 4-liter tank is indicated by the corresponding indicator. When it is full, work stops to avoid overflow. If there is a need to transfer the device to a permanent mode of operation, it is possible to drain the condensate into a drain hole or an external container using a hose.

Price — 18,000 rubles. Compared to the previous model, it has less performance and functionality, but this is natural due to the large difference in price. Taking into account the cost, the model offers an optimal set of features, it can work automatically and in continuous mode, achieving the desired air humidity indicator. An important advantage over the first model is the presence of a carbon filter, which eliminates unpleasant odors.

NeoClima FD-24AH

In fourth place is NeoClima FD-24AH. This is a model for rooms up to 42 sq. m, so it is suitable not only for domestic, but also for commercial use. Productivity — about 25 liters per day. The dehumidifier is equipped with an intuitive control panel with a display. The user can choose the speed of the fan, program the duration of the workadjust the dehumidification intensity and receive data on the current and set humidity parameter (on the display).

The model is able to carry out self-diagnostics due to microprocessor control, clean the air from dust thanks to the equipment with an additional filter. The condensate obtained during air dehumidification enters a 2.6-liter tank. Its overflow is reported by the corresponding indicator. Also, excess liquid can be drained into the sewer, for which a drainage pipe is provided.

Price — 16,000 rubles. Compared to the previous model, it has almost the same performance, stands out for the presence of a display, but has a smaller condensate collection tank. Given the low cost, the model offers an optimal set of features, automation and decent power.

Ballu BD12T

The top three opens inexpensive Ballu BD12T. The device is presented as if in two blocks. On the top there is a ventilation grill with rather large holes., through which the fan blades are visible, which is why some users find the performance not very interesting. The model differs in smaller dimensions and significantly lower productivity — designed to collect up to 12 liters per day.

An important feature is the equipment with an ultraviolet lamp, which can work both in the dehumidification mode, and turn on separately for air disinfection. The dehumidifier has three modes of operation.: decontamination, continuous dehumidification and turbo for rapid dehumidification. It is possible to set the operating time using a timer, calculated up to 24 hours. Control buttons, operation indicators and display are placed on the top panel for easy control and management.

Price — 15,000 rubles. The model is inferior to analogues in terms of price in appearance — it has a simpler design, compact dimensions and the absence of wheels. The device has half the power of work, it is designed for use in smaller areas (about 15 sq. M), but but it not only dries and purifies the air, but also participates in the fight against mold and bacteriabecause it is equipped with a UV lamp. Given the low price (and this is one of the cheapest models in the ranking), we can say that it is optimal in terms of price-quality ratio.

Electrolux EDH-65L

In second place is Electrolux EDH-65L. In terms of dimensions, it is almost similar to the FUNAI YAMANEKO model, equipped with the same handles and wheeled chassis, as well as a large condensate collection tank — 8.5 l. Model with a built-in pump, which automatically pumps condensate through the drain hose into the sewer. Also, the drain can be arranged in a container. Can work in 4 modes: dehumidification to the target humidity level, continuous dehumidification, maximum dehumidification, air ventilation.

In any of the programs, you can set the night modeto keep the appliance as quiet as possible. Using the timer, you can set the duration of work — from 1 to 24 hours. On the front panel there is a touch control panel with a display. Here are the performance indicators.: selected mode, tank full sensor, defrost mode. The evaporator of the device, as in the first model, is defrosted automatically. But the mode starts if the room temperature drops below + 18 ° C. The defrosting process starts every 25 minutes and takes about 5 minutes.

Price — 33,000 rubles. Compared to its analogue in price, FUNAI YAMANEKO has a similar performance, a large tank, many operating modes, while it costs 7,000 rubles less.

REMEZair RMD-301

And so we got to the leader of my rating — the budget REMEZair RMD-301. The dehumidifier belongs to «smart» devices, it can be controlled remotely via Wi-Fi, which is very convenient, because you can control the humidity, monitor the dehumidification process and manage all its settings remotely at an unlimited distance from the device. This dehumidifier provides everything you need for convenient and efficient work. Has 4 drying modes: Custom mode with reduced humidity to the desired value, intensive dehumidification mode, continuous dehumidification mode and fast drying mode. The last mode will seem to you just mega-convenient if you do not have a tumble dryer or a washing machine drying program.

It allows you to dry clothes three times faster without the appearance of an unpleasant musty smell. When the condensate collection tank is full, the appliance switches off automatically. The kit includes a 1 meter drain tube with the possibility of extension. With such a tube, brought into the drain hole of the sewer, the device can work continuously. Dehumidification produces at a rate of 12 liters per day and provides air exchange of 120 m³/h

Drying area — up to 40 m²which is suitable for most household spaces. It has wheels and handles, which allows you to move around the room or transport it to other rooms. Fan speed can be adjusted from 2 positions. The model is equipped with a built-in hygrometer (humidity sensor), which determines the current air parameters for automatic dehumidification to the set value.

Price — 14,000 rubles. When compared with Ballu, as a model from a similar price range, it stands out with more thoughtful operating modes, the presence of a Wi-Fi module and a convenient touch control panel. Designed to work in medium and large areas, equipped with wheels and handles for easy portability. It is inferior to this model only in the absence of an ultraviolet lamp and a slightly higher noise level during operation.
