musty cellar into a comfortable living space.
Space for your new home theater, your basement bar, your private gym, or for whatever
whatever
you might need a little more space for in your life.
How much water does the air contain?
When speaking of air humidity, a distinction is made between relative humidity and absolute humidity.
At different temperature values, the air can absorb different amounts of moisture.
In principle, the higher the temperature, the more moisture can be absorbed.
In addition, at any temperature there is a certain point at which it is not possible for the air to
to absorb more moisture. This point is called the saturation or dew point.
From here, condensation begins to form.
In the following three examples, the air always contains an absolute humidity of 12 g of water per kilogram of air.
This means that the relative humidity at a temperature of 30°C is 45% RH. At a temperature
of 20°C, 82% r.H. and at only 10°C the air is supersaturated, so that condensate escapes.
10 °C
100% Relative humidity
7,6g Water in the air
+4,4 g Condensate
At 10°C, one
kilogram of air can contain a maximum of
7.6 g of water.
20 °C
82% Relative humidity
12g Water in the air
At 20°C, one
kilogram of air can contain a maximum of
14.7 g of water.
30 °C
45% Relative humidity
12g Water in the air
At 30°C, one
kilogram of air can contain a maximum of
27.2 g of water.
Why does it get damp in the basement?
The temperature differences between the mostly unheated cellars and the surrounding area are often so great,
that moisture from the air precipitates as condensate. In many cases, this is compounded by structural
such as incorrectly constructed rain gutters and missing drainage systems. Moisture penetrates into the cellar - and cannot get out again.
At a cool cellar temperature of 20°C
the air can absorb a maximum of 14.7 g of water
per kilogram of air
The result is 0.3 g of condensate
per kilogram of air
Warm outside air of 32°C
Contains at 50% relative humidity
15.0 g of water per kilogram of air
Parked rustproof
Historic automobiles have become popular investments.
Imports from the American southern states are in great demand, as they have often not seen rainwater or de-icing salt during their car's life.
A good indoor climate is therefore of particular importance for your automotive
because the more original the condition, the higher the value.
To prevent corrosion, a dehumidifier belongs in the garage just as much as a set of
as a set of suitable tools for the car.
Well stored
Excessive moisture is a problem in the storage basements of many homes.
Detergents, for example, clump together as a result of absorbing moisture from the air.
table salt or substances containing sugar also react to high humidity, changing their consistency and quality. Even honey reacts and starts to ferment at too high humidity.
For good storage conditions, even in cool cellars, an active
dehumidification is recommended.
Free ride
Model railroads continue to fascinate young and old alike
and it is impossible to imagine many hobby cellars without them.
However, these small, moving gems are very sensitive to moisture and
to moisture, and even minimal rust formation can cause them
no longer function as desired.
A balanced room air humidity of 40 to 60 percent has a preventive effect
preventive against corrosion phenomena and also benefits the people
who spend time in these rooms.
No musty smell
Excessive moisture, which also settles in textiles, and the resulting growth of germs can cause a musty smell in the basement.
With dehumidification, you ensure that your laundry and cellar smell fresh again.
