Friends who live in the south have a headache every time they go back to the south during the rainy season or when they go back to the south. Water droplets were bubbling on the floor and walls, and the clothes were not dried, giving off an unpleasant smell. In such weather, people can feel very stuffy, very uncomfortable, and easily irritable. As a result, sales of dehumidifiers (also known as dehumidifiers) have skyrocketed. Dehumidifiers can not only remove moisture, but also prevent furniture and electrical appliances from being damaged by moisture, so that we and our families are more protected. It is worth noting that in order to hide people's eyes, some manufacturers on the market have made tricks and tricks on product parameters, using inferior materials, and the production process is also very rough. Prolonged use can lead to indoor air pollution, which can cause damage to the respiratory system and lungs. So what's the harm of a dehumidifier?As a small electrical appliance review blogger, today I want to talk to you about the *** and hazards of inferior dehumidifiers, so as to strengthen everyone's vigilance when purchasing.
This is part of the dehumidifiers I reviewed, and all the common dehumidifier brands on the market are available.
1. What are the hazards of dehumidifiers?The six major hazards should not be underestimated
What are the hazards of dehumidifiers?When buying household appliances, we should first think about whether this appliance is harmful to our body, and only by considering its safety can we use it with confidence. The main purpose of purchasing and using dehumidifiers is to remove indoor moisture, protect electrical appliances and furniture, and have a comfortable and healthy living environment for ourselves and our families. But if you buy a product that is seriously harmful, it will not be worth the loss.
Through this news report, I believe you also know that there are many unqualified dehumidifiers on the dehumidifier surface, so what are the hazards of inferior dehumidifiers?The following chart is the common negative evaluation of dehumidifiers sorted out by senior institutions in the industry, and it can be seen from the chart that everyone is the most dissatisfied with the "poor dehumidification performance", followed by "too much noise" and "toxic odor polluting the air". Based on this chart, I will summarize and summarize the hazards of dehumidifiers, and also give you a wake-up call to have a comprehensive understanding of it.
Hazard 1: Low-priced products sacrifice quality and endanger health
Some manufacturers sacrifice quality in order to reduce costs, use parts that are not guaranteed, and offer discounts to attract customers. Although this kind of dehumidifier seems to be very cost-effective, its dehumidification effect is not as good as the merchant says, and it is not durable, causing pollution to the environment and harm to human health, we should refuse to buy this kind of product.
Hazard 2: False standard parameters, poor performance to mislead consumers
The dehumidification capacity is an important indicator, which can effectively judge the dehumidification effect of the dehumidifier. In order to advertise the excellent performance of their dehumidifiers, some unscrupulous merchants cheat on the amount of dehumidification. As a result, consumers find that the actual amount of dehumidification does not achieve the expected dehumidification effect in the purchased products, which is likely to cause damage to household appliances and furniture, resulting in physical discomfort and even illness.
Hazard 3: The proliferation of online celebrity products hides potential safety hazards
Now celebrities on the Internet are live streaming goods, and many dehumidifier manufacturers will invite some well-known Internet celebrities to be the spokespersons of the products. Although this kind of propaganda is common, those spokespeople are laymen who simply don't understand the key technologies. Consumers are fooled and pay impulsively, only to find out that what they bought is not good enough, has no ability to dehumidify at all, and has high requirements for returns, and it takes a long time to get a refund.
Hazard 4: Exaggerating dehumidification performance and failing to improve humid environments
When many manufacturers promote their products, they will say that the dehumidification capacity of their dehumidifiers is skyrocketing, you know, the ability to dehumidify is related to temperature, humidity, environmental changes and other factors. However, now the national standard only uses a temperature, humidity and environment to detect, many enterprises take advantage of loopholes, but when actually used, affected by different temperatures and environments, the dehumidification effect can not reach the publicity, not suitable for family use, and the loss of money can not improve the humid indoor environment.
Hazard 5: Unprofessional products are prone to dust and air pollution
Although many businesses will indicate that the product has the function of purifying the air, they lack the research and development of professional maternal and infant grade dust removal and mildew free technology in actual use, and their products are easy to produce dust and mold for long-term use, pollute indoor air, and even endanger human health.
Hazard 6: Using multi-function as a gimmick, essentially reducing the efficacy
Some dehumidifier manufacturers, in order to increase sales, will add various bells and whistles to the dehumidifier, such as air purification, remote APP control, formaldehyde removal, etc. In fact, the dehumidifier does not have an obvious effect on air purification, and other effects will also reduce the dehumidification rate of the dehumidifier. In addition, the mandatory installation of the filtration system will also affect the water delivery and condensation on the dehumidifier, accelerate the damage of electronic components, resulting in a decrease in the dehumidification effect, which will have an adverse impact on human health.
2. What are the benefits of dehumidifiers?Six benefits of popular science
After understanding the disadvantages of inferior dehumidifiers, some people may ask: can this kind of equipment still work?Absolutely!The dangers mentioned above only exist in those unprofessional and substandard dehumidifiers on the market, while high-quality, professional dehumidifiers can maintain the humidity level of the room and keep our living environment from moisture. What are the advantages of a high-quality dehumidifier?I would like to summarize the following six main points.
Benefit 1: Dehumidification, balancing air humidity
The working principle of the dehumidifier is simple, it is to use a compressor to condense the water molecules in the air into water droplets, and then release these water droplets when the air is dry. In this way, the humidity in the room can be maintained within a suitable range after several cycles, which can effectively reduce the humidity in the room.
Benefit 2: Inhibits the growth of bacteria and fungi and reduces the probability of allergies
Some experts have pointed out that bacteria and fungi grow and multiply faster in a humid environment than in low humidity conditions, so reducing humidity can effectively inhibit the growth and growth of bacteria and fungi. Dehumidifiers are effective in reducing humidity in the air, especially when the humidity is below 60%, which can greatly slow down the growth of bacteria and fungi. The dehumidifier also comes with a filter that adsorbs dust and pollen in the filter, making it ideal for sensitive people.
Benefit 3: Makes the human body more comfortable
Living and working in a humid environment, people tend to feel stuffy, breathless, sweaty skin, and sticky hairHowever, if the air is too dry, the human body will lose too much water in the body too quickly, resulting in lack of water and peeling, and dry mouth. Dehumidifiers can maintain the humidity in the air in a suitable temperature range, making people feel more comfortable and beneficial to human health.
Benefit 4: Faster drying of laundry
When it rains and when you go back to the south, it is very troublesome to dry your clothes. The dehumidifier can play a great role, its main role is to reduce the humidity in the air, and at the same time, it can also dry the clothes to a certain extent, shortening the drying time. Put the clothes and the dehumidifier in the same space, and then turn on the dehumidifier to dry the clothes the next day without peculiar smell.
Benefit 5:Protect the furniture
Furniture in life, if it is in a humid environment, will become damp, especially in ordinary homes, the most common is wooden and fabric furniture. In a humid environment, these two substances are highly susceptible to erosion, resulting in mold and thus cannot be used. The dehumidifier can reduce the humidity in the room, and when the humidity is reduced, it can prevent damage due to moisture and prolong the life of the furniture.
Benefit 6: Prevent electrical appliances from getting damp and prolong their service life
In the case of high humidity, some electrical parts are prone to chemical changes, and due to moisture, electrical short-circuit, ** and other accidents. The dehumidifier has a good humidity control function, which can ensure the normal operation of household appliances and equipment, and can prolong the service life of household appliances.
3. How to choose a good dehumidifier?Eight tips for you
In the above content, we have explained the dangers of inferior dehumidifiers and the advantages of high-quality professional dehumidifiers, I think, some friends already want to buy a high-quality dehumidifier. However, there are many kinds of dehumidifiers on the market now, and the quality is also uneven, if you blindly choose, it is likely to cause some unnecessary trouble, which is a waste of money and can not achieve the purpose of dehumidification. So how do we choose?So, when buying a dehumidifier, I've put together a few tips to share with you.
Tip 1: Choose a professional brand
Priority is given to professional brand products with excellent manufacturing technology. Because these professional brands will do accurate research on dehumidification effect, stability, performance degradation and other aspects, and strive for excellence. They have been constantly optimizing the performance of their products, so the dehumidifier is not only effective in dehumidifying, but also very durable and without any noise. On the contrary, there are some unprofessional brands that use low-quality raw materials to make profits, resulting in very poor performance of dehumidifiers and frequent failures, such products will pollute the air and cause harm to the body when used for a long time.
Tip 2: Choosing a good compressor is key
The compressor is the core component of the dehumidifier, at present, Toshiba, Panasonic, and Meizhi are all using superior raw materials, and the production technology is also advanced. Compared with poor quality dehumidifiers, they are noisy, inefficient, unstable and easy to damage.
Tip 3: Choose a good quality condenser and evaporator
At present, most of the dehumidifiers on the market are made of aluminum, which is relatively cheap, and the performance of aluminum materials is unstable, easy to be eroded, and the service life is shortHigh-quality dehumidifiers usually use hydrophilic aluminum foil pure copper condensers and evaporators, which have high strength and strong corrosion resistance. It has a higher temperature and a higher pressure. In addition, because it has a large contact area with moisture, its dehumidifier has better performance and efficiency, which can extend its working life.
Selection tip 4: Choose a product equipped with high-quality double-row copper tubes
Dehumidifiers on the market today usually use double or single row copper tubes. Compared with single-row copper tubes, double-row copper tubes have a larger contact surface and a larger thermal radiation area, so they have better heat dissipation effects. The performance of copper pipes mainly depends on the wall thickness of the copper pipe and the amount of copper it contains. High-quality dehumidifiers have high requirements for copper pipes, and it is recommended to use 02 mm copper pipes with more than 99% copper content.
Tip 5: Be wary of unprofessional products that lack professional dust removal technology
Some manufacturers of dehumidifiers, in order to reduce costs, choose inferior raw materials, and the internal structure of the product is unreasonable design, in the long-term use process, it is likely to produce dust, impurities, mold, etc., thereby releasing harmful substances, causing pollution to the air, serious will also harm the human respiratory tract and internal organs, endanger the heart and lungs!This type of dehumidifier must be vigilant and pay more attention when buying.
Pick tip 6: Be wary of products with very rich giveaways
Many companies will give various gifts when they are in the first product, but those gifts are useless things, which cannot play the role of dehumidification at all, and the service life of the dehumidifier is generally about 3-5 years, and the quality of the product, the dehumidification effect, and the materials are more important.
Tip 7: Beware of products with a lot of maintenance costs
Discounts and various low-discount activities in the early stage are all aimed at attracting consumers, but merchants are likely to pass on these profits to the later after-sales projects. The so-called "ultra-long maintenance", "lifelong maintenance", in fact, are a kind of camouflage, in the after-sales service, there may be a large number of maintenance items to pay for themselves, some items of charge will make people hesitate to repair, or simply throw away, there are also some companies refuse to admit that their products have problems, a bite is the customer with the wrong use.
Tip 8: Dehumidifiers should consider durability
Cheap is not good. The reason why a good dehumidifier is expensive is because of the good material and durability. Although a high-quality dehumidifier** is more expensive, a good machine can last for several years. Inferior dehumidifiers have poor durability and often do not last for several years.
Earlier, we talked about "what are the hazards of inferior dehumidifiers" and the advantages of professional dehumidifiers, and we know that many bad dehumidifier businesses are falsely advertised, and the inferior dehumidifiers manufactured cannot be effectively dehumidified, but also create dust and various impurities, pollute the air, and endanger human health. Therefore, we need to know which dehumidifiers are worth buying. In order to help you better choose with high quality, I have summarized the evaluation data of 11 professional dehumidifiers by professional institutions. Through these data, I hope to help you choose a high-quality and desirable dehumidifier.
In the face of many problems such as sacrificing quality and toxic air pollution in the industry, the professional veteran Gongling FXGONNE dehumidifier is the only brand that has been certified by the European Union and other countries, and has been exported to Europe and the United States for many yearsGongling uses double dehumidification materialsWith the blessing of nine exclusive highlight black technologies, such as OSS cycle-decontamination and self-cleaning technology, dual-channel Meizhi high-end compressor, etc., the dehumidification stability and performance anti-attenuation degree are first-classOriginal maternal and infant dustproof and mildew-free technologyWith five-fold air filtration system, etc., it is rare to achieve dust-free, sterile, and odor-freeThe dehumidification efficiency, dehumidification stability, durability and ability to cope with complex temperature and humidity environments are all recognized as the best comprehensive performance within 60 years (covering 130 units).The dehumidification capacity is increased by 83% at different temperatures and environments, the dehumidification speed is increased by 92%, the dehumidification stability is increased by 120%, the harmful gas release rate is reduced by 98%, and 0 heavy metals exceed the standard, which is rare to obtain EU certificationAt a time when many other brands focus on low prices and low prices, it is recognized as a more professional brand in the industry!

FourWhat are the functional points of the IQ tax of the dehumidifier?The four major function points should be distinguished
In the above article, we have learned about what are the dangers of a low-quality dehumidifier, the benefits of a high-quality dehumidifier, and how to choose a dehumidifier. When shopping for a dehumidifier, we will find a variety of additional functions that are endless, and we are dizzying. Next, I will tell you what are the functions of the IQ tax of the dehumidifier, you can pay attention to it, which will help avoid inferior products of the IQ tax.
IQ tax function point 1:Multi-layer filter design
Some dehumidifiers advertise that their products are designed with multi-layer filters, which can play the role of air purifiers, but in actual applications, because of the problem of product design, they cannot achieve the effect of air purification, but can only remove more obvious dust particles and odors in the air, and the purification speed is relatively slow.
IQ tax function point 2: automatic drain function
Some dehumidifiers advertise that it can automatically discharge the water generated during the dehumidification process, which saves the trouble of pouring water, but it will affect the mobility of the dehumidifier, and the discharge of the effluent is also very troublesome, it is not as good as a water tank, it is simply an IQ tax.
IQ tax function point 3: over-temperature protection function
Some dehumidifier brands claim that their products have "over-temperature protection" under the banner of "over-temperature protection", that is, when the working temperature of the machine exceeds a certain range, it will automatically shut down, in fact, the working temperature of the dehumidifier will not be very high, and there will be no harm. Be vigilant about the ambient temperature of the dehumidifier, and if the surrounding temperature is too high, it is necessary to stop the dehumidifier in time to avoid accidents.
IQ tax function point 4: the design of the aromatherapy box
Some dehumidifiers add aromatherapy box design to the product, so that the air produced by the dehumidifier after dehumidification has the fragrance of aromatherapy, which can cover up the odor in the air.
Through the above pages, we have learned about the hazards of inferior dehumidifiers and the benefits of high-quality dehumidifiers, and also know how to choose dehumidifiers and what are the functional points of dehumidifier IQ tax. All in all, inferior dehumidifiers not only cannot effectively dehumidify, but also have adverse effects on furniture and appliances, pollute the air, and induce various diseases due to harm to people's health. At the same time, we also learned that high-quality professional dehumidifiers have many advantages, which can effectively dehumidify, reduce the breeding of bacteria and fungi, prolong the service life of furniture and appliances, and protect the health of us and our families. So we must buy the best professional dehumidifiers, they have strong dehumidification performance, and they are safe, non-toxic, and very durable.
