Calculate Dehumidifier Size



Formula

The formula to calculate the Dehumidifier Size (DS) is:

\[ DS = A \cdot (HL \cdot 0.5 + 0.5) \]

What is a Dehumidifier Size?

A dehumidifier size refers to the capacity of a dehumidifier to remove moisture from the air within a given time period, typically measured in pints per day. The size needed depends on the area of the space and the level of humidity. Proper sizing is crucial for efficient operation and to ensure that the desired humidity level is maintained.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the Dehumidifier Size (DS):

\[ DS = A \cdot (HL \cdot 0.5 + 0.5) = 500 \cdot (3 \cdot 0.5 + 0.5) = 500 \cdot 2 = 1000 \]

The Dehumidifier Size (DS) is 1000 pints per day.
