The Dehumidifier One aims to tackle humidity which is an often-overlooked problem within our homes with nuanced impacts on our lives. High humidity increases our feeling of cold, causes mould growth as well as increased levels of microorganisms which can cause allergies. Elevated levels of mould and microorganisms within the house can also cause increased flare ups for people with respiratory diseases such as asthma, which affects over 890,000 people in Ireland.
The Dehumidifier One offers a unique engineering solution which has increased efficiency compared to its competitors on the market, using a single air chamber for both cooling and reheating the air which maximises the devices output.
The more important aspect of the product however is formfactor and aesthetics, it is wall mounted, meaning users will no longer have clunky objects laying in the corners of their rooms, taking up floor or shelf space. The design also emphasises the amount and value of the water being collected so that the user acknowledges and appreciates the device working more.
