Kalopsia Portable Dehumidifier 50L (Black, 33cm x 31cm x 54cm)

How much electricity does this dehumidifier use?

The unit consumes 620 watts of power during operation. With the energy-efficient R290 refrigerant system, running costs remain low compared to older dehumidifier models. The smart humidity control automatically cycles the unit on and off to maintain your set humidity level, reducing overall energy consumption.

Can I use the built-in pump to drain water upstairs?

Yes, the integrated pump can drain water up to 5 metres vertically. This makes it perfect for basement installations where you need to pump water up to ground level drains. The pump activates for about one minute during drainage cycles and produces brief operational noise, which is completely normal.

What size room will this dehumidifier cover effectively?

This unit effectively controls moisture in spaces up to 120 square metres. The dual air outlet system delivers 280 cubic metres per hour airflow, making it suitable for large areas including basements, garages, workshops and commercial spaces. Performance depends on temperature and existing humidity levels.

How often do I need to empty the water tank?

The 8-litre water tank capacity means emptying frequency depends on humidity levels and room size. In very damp conditions, you might need to empty it daily. However, you can connect a drain hose for continuous drainage or use the built-in pump system to avoid manual emptying altogether.

Is this dehumidifier suitable for cold environments?

Yes, the auto-defrost technology allows operation down to 5°C. This makes it suitable for unheated spaces like garages, basements and workshops during winter months. The rotary compressor technology supports continuous 24/7 operation even in challenging conditions.

How loud is this dehumidifier during normal operation?

Normal operation produces less than 46 decibels, making it suitable for bedrooms and quiet spaces. The only louder noise occurs during pump activation, which lasts about one minute during drainage cycles. This brief noise is normal and indicates the pump is working correctly.

Can this unit help dry clothes indoors?

Absolutely. The dual air outlet system accelerates clothes drying by 40% compared to natural air drying. The high airflow rate of 280 cubic metres per hour creates better air circulation around wet clothes. This makes it particularly useful during rainy seasons when outdoor drying isn't possible.

What maintenance does this dehumidifier require?

Maintenance is minimal. The washable filter should be cleaned regularly to maintain air quality and efficiency. Empty and clean the water tank periodically to prevent bacteria growth. Check the drain hose connections if using continuous drainage. The R290 refrigerant system is designed for long-term reliability with minimal servicing needs.
