Product Information

Should the RH reach 45% again then the Zambezi will toggle into full power to bring the RH down to 35% again. Ionizer For Allergies An important point to make is that the extraction rate for all dehumidifier varies. Some desiccant models might extract at 7.8 litres/day, some at 8.1 litres/day and others at 8.3 litres/day. For marketing purposes it is easier to round up/down to the nearest whole number. The Zambezi water tank has handles for ease of lifting on its sides whereas the Meaco Compact water tank features a handle in the middle of the tank. This type of handle is fine for a 2 litre water tank but for a 3 litre container you will certainly need both hands to lift it if the container is full. Bottom line: The Meaco Zambezi has a more powerful extraction than the Meaco Compact. Meaco DD8L Water Tank If you struggle with moisture in the air and humidity levels at your home, buying a dehumidifier is a perfect solution to your problem.

To take advantage of this great offer just simply add the warranty extension you want and we'll do the rest.Both Meaco DD8L dehumidifiers have a stated 8 litre extraction rate. However while testing the Meaco Zambezi we found that the extraction rate was slightly higher than the Meaco Compact extraction rate. So when the set RH has been reached the DD8L’s go to sleep, with the fan off, for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes the dehumidifier toggles into fan only mode for 5 minutes while it samples the air for the new RH level. One of the most positive benefits of this dehumidifier is its ability to dry a load of laundry within two to three hours, meaning you don’t need to leave laundry hanging around the house for days to dry. Final Thought The Zambezi features a LED display panel which we really love. The display panel shows you all the settings as well as the current room humidity and temperature readings. By knowing the exact room humidity level you can make better informed setting choices for your dehumidifier.

The average dehumidifier ionizer covers an area of up to 1 metres around the dehumidifier. The Zambezi ioniser covers an area up to 10 metres around the dehumidifier. The inside of a compressor dehumidifier needs to be colder than the air within the room and the colder the room is the harder the dehumidifier has to work. As the temperature starts to fall towards 10°C then the chances are that the inside of the dehumidifier will get close to freezing, increasing the chances of ice forming on the dehumidifier’s cooling coils. This is why below around 15°C compressor dehumidifiers are programmed to spend up to two thirds of their time defrosting themselves rather than dehumidifying. The Meaco DD8L Zambezi is a desiccant that works consistently well at temperatures below 15 degrees. The Zambezi is a great all-rounder that is excellent at extracting plenty of moisture out of the air of larger homes. It won’t let you down no matter where you position it in your house. You can choose your ideal moisture level and set the dehumidifier in five per cent steps between 40-70 per cent humidity.

In general a desiccant works better at low temperatures, and extracts more water than a compressor. Importantly, the DD8L allows you to select a quiet fan speed independent of the relative humidity that you might wish to select. This ensures that the DD8L will stay in quiet mode whenever you want absolute quiet, for example at night, so that your sleep or peace is not disturbed. However a 3 litre water tank is ideal if you want to run the dehumidifier throughout the night to fight condensation. We personally own a Meaco DD8L Compact and Meaco was kind enough to send us a Meaco DD8L Zambezi for test purposes. Therefore this comparison is based upon actual hands-on experience. As stated above the Zambezi will work to bring the humidity level down to 35% relative humidity however instead of running at full power (600 watts) when it reaches 35% RH the dehumidifier reduces output by 50% and runs at 300 watts.
