Hi, thank you for sharing the video. What is the brand of the hydrometers you're using? Do they come with an app as well? thanks a million!
No problem at all I’ll post a link to them below. They do come with an app that syncs to them via Bluetooth which means you refresh the monitors manually or you buy a hub and then it syncs for you and allows you to view the data outside the house - perhaps I should make a dedicated video

@@GreenWhereItSuits Thank you so much. It is very kind kind of you. I will check them.. best regards...
Thank you very much for sharing the video. You mentioned that the room is really cold. Can you please elaborate a bit on that? I mean will using a compressor-based humidifier like the one you have make the room cold although the meter reads almost the same temp?. I like this one but afraid it Will make the room more cold. Thank you for your time..
Great question to ask! Humidity is a funny thing and works in different ways when you are feeling hot or cold. In this instance we had a mini heat wave and so we were feeling hot and bothered. By lowering the humidity the room is more easily able to wick away sweat from your body which leaves you feeling cooler - increasing the humidity when you already feel warm will make the same temperature feel hotter.
The opposite happens when you are cold. A humid room with the moisture touching your skin will feel colder, and removing humidity will make it feel warmer.
Does that help? In the winter months the lack of humidity will make you feel warmer.
@@GreenWhereItSuits thank you for your informative reply. So in your video, how did you find the room after running the dehumidifier for one hour? Was it warmer or more cold than that before running the dehumidifier? Thank you so much. Your feedback is really helpful
In this instance, the room was uncomfortably hot to be in and running the dehumidifier made the room feel more comfortable / cooler. I must stress though that if you have high humidity in a room that feels cold, removing the moisture will make it feel warmer. The reason being is that a high humidity level exacerbates how hot or cold the room feels.
can it handle a whole house?
I have it on the landing if our 4 bed house and it does a good job - see my other video to see it in action. If there’s anything specific you’d like to see I can record another test for you. I ran it overnight last night and it reached the target humidity of 50% that I set and maintained it. The tank was 3/5th full come morning.
Hi I live in a 1 bed flat and get humidity around 68 at night. I leave my internal doors open and I feel like it takes a long time to reach target. It gets close to around 60. I will need to run it for 5 6 hours per day to reach 55? How long does it stay at this humidity? I am dreading condensation forming on windows pretty bad and mould every cold months
How are you checking your humidity levels? In the description there are links to the hygrometers I use in each of my bedrooms and living rooms including kitchen.
Cooking, especially with gas adds to the moisture in the air, but so does breathing in general. My son has the smallest room and the humidity climbs throughout the night.
Another thing to bear in mind is that you are likely looking at relative humidity which given the same amount of moisture in the air will read higher in colder rooms and lower in warmer rooms. Relative humidity is like a sponge that grows with air temperature and shrinks in cold temperature, when the room gets too cold the sponge can be squeezed to the point water comes out - which is what happens with condensation.
Is your flat getting cold overnight?
