Unheated Premises

In unheated spaces, extra attention must be paid to the humidity level in the air!

Efficient dehumidification for unheated spaces

When ventilating buildings, a certain amount of moisture is continuously introduced.

Outdoor humidity will affect the indoor air. To prevent corrosion and mold, relative humidity should always be kept below 55%.

Airwatergreen energy-efficient dehumidifiers can be used in all parts of the building. Different models are recommended depending on the installation and purpose. For attics, basements, and crawl spaces, FLEX or REX are the best options. When installing dehumidification as part of the ventilation system, NEXT is NEXT the most relevant model.

All Airwatergreen dehumidifiers dehumidify just as effectively at low temperatures as at high ones. This makes it possible to minimize heating costs in buildings or parts of buildings that are only occasionally visited.

Below ground level

Challenges

Humidity in spaces below ground level typically penetrates through floors and walls. If the humidity is too high, mold and bacterial growth will soon develop. The mold then risks spreading to the rest of the building, leading to degraded air quality and potential damage to the structure.

Our solution

FLEX can be set to control based on the "mold index" (LIM1), providing optimal control to achieve the correct moisture level depending on the temperature. Installation is simplified as unnecessary ventilation ducts are not required. Dry air is distributed by the powerful integrated fan.

In larger premises with greater air volumes and higher moisture loads, REX or NEXT may NEXT the right choice.

Basement & Storage

Challenges

Challenges with moisture in basements are often caused by moisture rising from the ground or by poorly insulated walls. Excessive humidity in basement areas can cause corrosion and mold.

This can lead to damage in the concrete structure. If the concrete is too moist, reinforcing steel inside it can begin to corrode, leading to reduced structural strength and potentially concrete spalling.

Our solution

We recommend that FLEX & REX be set to maintain a relative humidity level below 55% to protect against corrosion and mold. Installation is simplified because we generate dry air on-site, and this dry air is distributed throughout the space by the powerful integrated fan. This makes it easy to install the dehumidifiers in existing buildings.

Product selection

If the moisture load is higher, we recommend REX , which has 6 times the capacity of FLEX.

In cases where the moisture load is very high or if the dehumidifier is to be connected as part of the ventilation system, we recommend the product NEXT.

All our models can be connected to existing climate control systems via Modbus.
