What is a Dehumidifier?
Both dehumidifiers and air purifiers improve indoor air quality, but they serve different purposes. A dehumidifier reduces excess moisture in the air, helping to prevent mould, damp, condensation, and dust mites—common problems in humid or poorly ventilated spaces like basements, bathrooms, and laundry rooms.
In contrast, an air purifier removes airborne pollutants such as dust, pollen, pet dander, smoke, and allergens by using filters like HEPA or activated carbon. They’re ideal for people with asthma, allergies, or respiratory conditions and are commonly used in bedrooms, living rooms, and offices.
