Find the best dehumidifier for your 25m² room with high humidity
Portugal's climate, particularly in coastal areas, is characterized by high humidity levels that often exceed 80% during winter months. This high humidity, coupled with temperatures that typically don't drop significantly at night, creates an environment where moisture can easily penetrate buildings and cause various problems including mold growth, musty odors, damage to wooden structures, and increased risk of respiratory issues.
For a room of approximately 25 square meters (269 square feet) with humidity levels exceeding 90%, a dehumidifier with appropriate capacity and features is essential for maintaining a healthy living environment.
