Compact portable unit maintains ideal humidity

Compact portable dehumidifier uses absorption technology to retain an ideal humidity level of between 30 and 50% in winter and 40 and 60% in summer.

Scott Products, the expert in the distribution of heating and cooling solutions, announces the launch of its new portable dehumidifier, the Ruby Dry.

Compact in size but high on performance, the new Ruby Dry is a wholly revolutionary unit that uses absorption technology, the first of its kind on the UK market.

The Ruby Dry addresses damp and condensation problems around the home as well as in usually unheated places such as caravans, holiday homes, garages and boats.

Excess humidity helps the growth of mould and mildew, which can trigger allergies, cause rot and decay of the wood substructure of properties and destroy clothing and fabrics.

It is therefore essential for the health of the house, its occupants and their possessions to retain an ideal humidity level of between 30 and 50% in winter and 40 and 60% in summer.

These humidity levels are easily achievable with the Ruby Dry, making it a must-buy product, which is guaranteed to be a retail success for hardware and DIY stores, electrical retailers and builders' merchants.

The Ruby Dry dries the air by an absorption process, which reduces the humidity level of the room by absorbing the moisture within air and then delivering a constant flow of dried and warmed air.

As a consequence, the Ruby Dry also has an added benefit during winter months of increasing room temperature by up to 12 deg C, thereby helping users to save energy and money from central heating.

Unlike traditional dehumidifiers, the Ruby Dry operates effectively even at low temperatures of 1-15 deg C.

The effectiveness of compressor-based units diminishes rapidly below 15 deg C.

This makes Ruby Dry perfect for the British climate.

Although powerful, the Ruby Dry is quiet in operation making it ideal for use even in the bedroom.

Customers will also benefit from the Ruby Dry's two operation modes: automatic and continuous.

In the automatic mode, the humidity level is controlled by the unit's sensors.

What's more, the Ruby Dry will automatically stop operating once the water reservoir is full.

Alternatively, water can be drained directly to waste.

In addition, the Ruby Dry is very light and features a handle, thereby making it very easy to move around the house.

Respecting the environment, the Ruby Dry absorbs humidity by the use of silicagel, a natural component that produces no freon or noxious gasses.

Unlike conventional compressor type appliances, the Ruby Dry does not fall within the new End of Life disposal regulations.

These require the use of a licensed recycling unit capable of recovering the refrigerant chemical when disposing of electrical appliances, and do not apply to Ruby Dry since the unit has no refrigerant.

The Ruby Dry has a trade price of between GBP 200 - GBP 249 with trade terms offering healthy margins.
