Ideal-Air Dehumidifier 50 Pint - Up to 80 Pints Per Day

Ideal-Air Dehumidifier Rated 50 Pints, Up to 80 in the Room

Two numbers describe this unit, and both measure the same machine. Under AHAM test conditions of 80°F and 60% relative humidity, it removes 50 pints per day. In warmer, wetter air of 86°F and 80% RH, typical of a flowering room, it pulls up to 80 pints per day. The change to AHAM ratings follows the US Department of Energy rule, and the hardware is unchanged. It runs on standard 115V power and draws about 6.9 A and 720 W. A heavy-duty compressor and two-speed fan handle long run times in sealed rooms. The digital display shows room humidity and lets you set a target level. Water collects in a removable 6 L tank that shuts the unit off when full. For hands-off running, connect a hose to the continuous drain and route it to a floor drain. Low temperature defrost protects the coil when the room cools during lights-off.

Sizing a Grow Room Dehumidifier

A grow room dehumidifier has to keep up with the water plants release, not just room air. Plants transpire most of the water they take in, so daily irrigation volume is a good guide to the load. Size the unit so it can remove at least as much water as you feed each day, with some headroom. Humidity spikes after lights-off, so set the target a little below your goal for that window. Place the unit where it can draw from the canopy and exhaust into open space, not against a wall. Keep the intake clear and wash the filter regularly to hold airflow and efficiency. If no floor drain is nearby, an optional condensate pump can lift water to a sink or drain line. Auto restart brings the unit back to its last settings after a power outage. Built-in handles and wheels make it easy to move between rooms. In large or sealed rooms, run several units rather than one oversized machine for even coverage.
