⚡ At a Glance
- • Dehumidification: Removes up to 12 litres per day with a 2.5L front-loading water tank
- • Prime choice for: Mid-sized flats and terraces with window condensation, bathrooms and kitchens
- • Skip this if: You manage a large, uninsulated cellar with continuous rising damp; the 12L/day extraction and 2.5L tank will fill rapidly and will not control persistent rising-moisture problems
12L/day extraction combines with medical-grade H13 HEPA filtration and a 2.5L front-loading tank. Whisper-quiet 35 dB operation plus laundry mode and a five-year parts and labour warranty.
📋 Technical Details at a Glance
- Capacity: 12 Litres per day
- Water tank capacity: 2.5 Litres
- Filtration: Medical-grade H13 HEPA filter
- Functionality: 2-in-1 Dehumidifier and Air Purifier
- Noise level: 35 dB (whisper-quiet)
Why 2-in-1 dehumidification and H13 HEPA filtration Is a Standout Attribute
12 litres per day extraction reduces relative humidity enough to limit window condensation and slow mould growth, while the medical-grade H13 HEPA filter captures nanoparticles such as dust, dander and pollen. Direct Impact: Lower humidity plus fine-particle filtration improves indoor comfort and air clarity simultaneously.
Combined control of moisture and airborne allergens delivers noticeably fresher rooms and fewer damp-related odours. Consideration: homes with severe structural damp or very large volumes may still need a higher-capacity dehumidifier or professional remediation.
Mastering indoor laundry drying via low-energy laundry mode
A dedicated laundry mode runs for six hours before switching off, using markedly less electricity than a tumble dryer and offering an estimated running cost of about 3 pence per hour (based on 24.5p/kWh). User Scenario: On a rainy afternoon, set the laundry mode and leave damp items to dry while saving energy compared with machine drying.
Laundry mode speeds air-drying without the heat and expense of a tumble dryer, and the low running cost keeps bills down. If you leave very heavy loads to dry, expect the 2.5L tank to fill mid-cycle, requiring an extra emptying stop.
The Ultra-quiet 35 dB Advantage in Detail
A measured 35 dB sound level produces a gentle hum significantly below average dehumidifier noise, making overnight operation manageable in bedrooms. User Scenario: Running overnight keeps humidity steady while household activity is low, so morning surfaces feel drier and less clammy.
Castors, a hidden carry handle and neat cable tidy let the unit sit unobtrusively like a piece of furniture, while the 35 dB operation avoids disturbing sleep. Trade-off: quieter fans tend to move air more slowly, so expect slightly longer cycles than high-powered commercial machines when trying to dry very wet spaces fast.

🏆 Our Verdict
Suitable for homeowners in mid-sized flats and terraces who need steady condensation control and cleaner air. The front-loading 2.5L tank lifts out easily and the concealed handle makes emptying feel less fiddly than many top-fill options, a small practical detail that improves everyday use. Low running costs and a five-year parts and labour warranty deliver strong long-term value for anyone who will run the unit regularly.
