You’re humidity is extremely low, even, below the recommended levels for health which should be between 30-50%. I live in Florida where outside humidity is often very high. 90% in the summertime is not uncommon. Running a dehumidifier with some fans makes the air feel extremely cool at just 77°. Yes, the dehumidifier makes hot air but if you’re running several fans to circulate that air, it will feel cooler. The reason we “feel” cooler is because our sweat evaporates making us feel cool. Sweat can’t evaporate whenever humidity is too high. It feels hot and muggy. Lowering the humidity and running a fan will allow your body to cool itself properly. When the humidity is low, the fan feels cold. When humidity is high, the fan feels like it’s just blowing around hot muggy air. It’s just the opposite in the wintertime. Florida’s high humidity makes cold days feel even colder. It feels cold and wet at the same time. It’s bone chilling cold at 40° in Florida whereas the same temperature in a less humid environment isn’t nearly as uncomfortable.
You’re idea is basically how an air conditioner works. It compresses refrigerant into a liquid that evaporates and cools the air. The refrigerant is compressed into a liquid again and the cycle continues. The AC is a closed system. Running a swamp cooler and a dehumidifier seems inefficient as it’s not a closed system. The dehumidifier might not be able to keep up. Swamp coolers are best in dry climates where humidity is not an issue.
@@yashagrawal88 It’s been 6 months already. The dehumidifier was a huge improvement to our overall air quality. People say that the air feels “crisp”. Recently, I’ve been running the AC’s fan and the dehumidifier without the AC turned on to recirculate, filter and dehumidify the air which is enough to cool the house on certain days. I also use a reusable electrostatic air filter which makes it easy to clean regularly.
Same here. I was like "What do you expect it will do?". I am thinking on getting one if they actually make the air feel cooler. Humidity here is never under 80% and we are going through an insufferable heat wave.
@@RedWolfDrift2000 Barranquilla, Colombia. And well, we sometimes end up even having a feeling of 45°C (113°F) whwne the temperature is around 35°C because of the hugh humidity.
Thanks so much for making this helpful experiment. I spent all day researching a dehumidifier vs ac situation thinking that the dehumidifier would cool the air and almost bought one. You saved me the time and money! God bless!
I have a small Fral commercial 33 ltr dehumidifier in my office, I wouldn't say it feels warmer but it feels fresher and it removes a lot of airbourne dust around the room.
Thanks for the useful insight. Same observations. I have several dehum and using them regularly raise indoor temperature due to warm dry air produced. If no effort is made to cut down on excess moisture, we are back to square one, inducing more humidity and mold growth. The tradeoff from lower humidity and higher temp is a paradox. We need to take a hybrid approach to cut down moisture production, ventilate and dehum to prevent temperature increases and mold growth.
Your humidity is so low already that it didn't make the room feel cooler. Definitely not a myth when you go from 80% humidity to 50 or lower it makes a difference.
Thanks! The video did have some helpful tidbits of info. Though I will say that I had to look-up the conversion of Celsius to Fahrenheit--> I wish you would’ve automatically shared the degrees in BOTH Celsius & Fahrenheit rather than just Celsius alone. Most don’t use Celsius here in the U.S. (where you’re filming this) so wondering why you didn’t consider adding in the Fahrenheit for viewers?
can you test pumping an evaporative cooler and a dehumidifier in the same room ? my guess is , if you put cold water to the evaporative cooler, and if the dehumidifier takes warmer water out , it should be replacing the moisture in the air with colder water
@@yashagrawal88 - @ 35c and 10% humidity, the water evaporator will cool the water to 20c ( also @30c and 30% humidity). Note the sun is hitting the blinds in his room. For that window size, that's about 500 watts of heat.
Evaporative coolers literally evaporate water adding moisture. This will make the dehumidifier run longer and just heat up the space. How or why does it heat up the space? The dehumidifier is in itself a modified air conditioner, however the condenser coil that's normally placed outdoors to dissipate heat is simply inside the unit, side by side with the evaporator coil. The fan sucks in the humid air passes it through the condenser coil, heating it up.....then it continues on through the evaporator coil which is frigid cold and sucks the moisture out through condensation and drips it down the the collection bucket. In theory the amount of heat and cold should negate itself and the output air should be of the same temperature as input air, but with less moisture. However in practice, the dehumidifier has an electric fan and other electronic components that dissipate a little bit of heat inside the system, which blows out with the dehumidified air. So the net total of the air coming out of the dehumidifier will be slightly warmer. If only a dehumidifier is used, it will over time warm up the room to the output air temperature. But at the same temperature, dry air feels 'cooler' than humid air. So it's essential to set your AC to cool to a desired temperature and use a dehumidifier only if the AC isn't removing enough moisture. The AC also dehumidifies, cos it's just a more sophisticated dehumidifier. Just like a dehumidifier, every air conditioner needs access to a drain to drip out captured moisture.
A dehumidifier can make a humid room feel much more comfortable as it takes the water out of the air. However, dehumidifiers throw off heat, and that can heat up the room, even though the lower humidity is there. I have one, I live in Florida. I love it, because of the humidity, even with my central h/a, it can get sticky. So when it's off, the humidity is around 70, and when I leave it for a couple of days it will drop down to around 40, and the room feels much drier and softer. Unfortunately, these can't be used for cooling due to the heat being thrown off, and in fact, in the winter, I use it to help put some heat into the room to take the chill off.
Dehumidifier is good instead of AC if you have high humidity, like 60-70% and hot, like 30C or more. If you reduce humidity to 50C, even if room is hot, your body will no longer sweat that much, it evaporates quickly, you cool down and body stops oversweating. I use also a pedestal fan, which helps sweat go away even faster. So Dehumidifier + Fan is good solution if you have no AC or if need to lower electric bill. Dehumidifier can work only short time, like 30min per evening if room is small. Fan runs 24/7, just 40Watts.
You are a complete moron, never use a dehumidifier because you are hot. An Airconditioner is basically the exact same thing as a dehumidifier but it actually moves the heat outside therefore it will actually cool your room down and lower the humidity.
Lol, really? 25% humidity and your running a dehumidifier? Below about 40% and you feel hotter. Plus you are pumping heat into your room. You would benefit greatly from a swamp cooler that only runs about 250Watts.
now that you have a much lower humidity level, force that dry air into a small swamp cooler and sit back and chill. dry air react to a cooling process causing it to lower the air temperature greatly. try it you will see . and it will lower the cost of using ac current..
You should place the thermostats on the wall and not right on top of the dehumidifier. From personal experience all I can say about dehumidifiers is they work great in the basement.
Very true I live in Florida and the humidity at night can reach easily over 90 percent. And you can tell a big big difference with one and without one. I have 2 4,500 sq ft and a3,500 and a 2,500 and they all get filled up in less than a day. And I have 4 little ones in the bedrooms. It's crazy how much water I get everyday. And I don't even run them all day. My house is only about 2,000 sq ft.
Damn you are dumb, a dehumidifier is going to heat your room there for it will be working against your airconditioner. If your airconditioner isn't keeping up then if you had at least half a brain you would have bought another airconditioner.
Regardless of humidity levels the dehumidifier will increase the room air temperature. It is best used on cool damp days. I can fill the tank twice a day when the humidity is high. Dehumidifier have there uses but do not take the place of an air conditioner on hot days.
so im assuming your up north. down here in the south we can reach literally 100% humidity if your taking say 85% a normal summer day in Florida and take it down to 30-40% it w3ill def feel cooler
I haven't watched it to the end, but it can't lower the temperature. Heat cannot be destroyed, but only moved. Humidifier has no way to send the heat to outside of the room, unlike an air conditioner, so it's not possible. And since it uses energy (electricity), all that energy should be eventually turned into heat, so it will only increase the temperature.
25% humidity??? You seriously don't have a humidity problem! Why are you even running a dehumidifier? Your way below the level of humidity issues like mold and mildew.
25% Humidity is already low so you don't even need a dehumidifier. Your home should be 40-55% humidity. Here in Georgia humidity during the summer is 90%+ & the inside of my home stays between 44-55%. Down here in the South you can literally feel the difference in water vapor in Air walking out of your home. Your AC already works as a dehumidifier so up North where you are you should need a dehumidifier unless you got a crawlspace or maybe basement that stays damp.
Hey Rick, how has your outdoor air quality been with the Sahara dust this year? Iowa/Minnesota is still pretty nasty. Readings in the upper 20's and 30's ug/m3 for PM2.5 and PM10 respectively again today. Had one night a couple weeks ago where the particle counter readings suddenly went up very quickly, spiked at 170 and 245 ug/m3, then came back down to the 30's and 40's. Thankfully only lasted a few minutes. Was like a big rogue wave of super bad/dusty air rolled over us.
The correct way should do not just turn on only the dehumidifier but your fan as well, then you can have cooling feel without an Aircond . Dehumidifier doesn’t serve for cooling purpose but just reduce humidity below 50% only
You already started off with very low humidity. Secondly, you're testing it in a small room, and yes it does produce some warm air. I live in Louisiana and I have my AC thermostat set a 75° or 74° all the time and it feels cool and comfortable in my almost 1600 square foot home. my energy bill is in the $50 range and the highest I had was a 72 dollar bill so far and that was only one time. Now, my friends' energy bills are between $200 and $300 per month!! and they have their thermostat set between 67 and 70°!! non of them has a dehumidifier. I have a Frigidaire that runs 24/7 and I have it set in my living room. Your experiment doesn't apply to all environmental and space conditions. I highly recommend a dehumidifier if you want to have healthier air to breathe, no mold, reserve your home structure and furniture, make your AC unit work less but extracting less moisture, and lowering your energy bill. humidity slowly destructs everything and invites all kinds of creatures to your home. just get a damn dehumidifier. ESPECIALLY if you live in places like Louisiana which the humidity is crazy high.
My thoughts exactly. Those of us that live on the gulf coast can attest. Humidity is a killer! I bought 4500 sq fr dehumidifier for my 2500 sq ft home and I can’t wait to test this out. I’ll come back and let y’all know the results.
As an update, AC was previously set to 71 at night and my hygrometer read 54%… not good. So when i received the dehumidifier I set it at 40% humidity… within 4 hours the canister was full and it was freezing in the house. We raised the AC to 75 and its very comfortable with the humidity sitting at 40%. Best $200.00 I’ve spent.
Dehumifier is not making you cooler in hot weather is only making you not as sticky as sweaty . So that you don't feel stuffy . The best is in close room in hot weather . I don't use aircon . I use dehumifier to make me not as sticky as possible in humid weather .
Damn you are dumb, why wouldn't you use an airconditioner if you are hot? They are basically exactly the same except the airconditioner will actually move the heat outside therefore cooling your room and it will lower the humidity.
@@Z-Ack lol there are lots of basements that are cold and humid, that is the perfect place for a dehumidifier. If you are dealing with a hot humid place then use an airconditioner.
Does AC work better with dry or humid air? High humidity cancels out the air conditioner's cooling effect. When the humidity is too high, your building will feel warmer than it is. You may find yourself running the air conditioner harder for longer and not getting the desired effects. That's from Google. So if you live in a hot area, you need air conditioning. If you live in a very dry, hot area, you can use evaporative cooling. Other than the desert Southwest, USA's hot states are humid. The slight increase in temperature from a dehumidifier is worth the extra cooling from the a/c after you've brought the humidity down. Ask Texans and cajuns the difference in their electric bills (ones who run dehumidifiers with their a/c versus the ones who don't).
Lol damn you are dumb. There is no heater in a dehumidifier that dries out the air, there is a cold surface that the water condenses on. But yes anything that uses electricity will create heat so there for a dehumidifier will heat your room.
@Ace Report bro can I ask you a question? I know that when the air turned into cold it leaves the water and the air turned into dry. And when the air becomes hot it contain humaid and water from circumstances and nature.thats why we feel cool in winter because of the air is dry. My asking is if the dry is cold and humid air is hot to feeling. So why dehumidifier make the air hot even its make the air dry.
You have to use either a dessicant based or passive sea salt de-humidifier to see the benefits of dehumidification. Using this gas guzzling dehumidifier is not efficient.
Thank you so much, for this confirmation *Rick Rude* . I thought my humidifier was broke(like Wtf its hotter in here now??) and the humidity was 77%, so I gave it away haha.
Hi everyone I'm from Philippines, can anyone Try air cooler like midea, dowell or iwata brand. And Dehumidifier In the same CLOSED ROOM. The dehumidifier place in the back of air cooler not so close (I'm not good science guys). As the Air cooler produce more moist in the air were the humidity is get higher , so may Dehumidifier absorb the moist( Dehumidifier Release hot air) So when dehumidifier is in the back of the Air cooler, the Air cooler suck the hot air from the Dehumidifier to fuel it's Honey comb pad From heat air and release cold air.. Why do you think guys may it be work OR NOT??? Sorry for my English.
Yea for about 10 minutes then its gonna get up in the 90’s and suckers just gonna be hot.. the type of hot where your hands dry out, mouth gets all sticky, and you feel the warm blow of the dehumidifier.. And how the hell you get the room down to 11%? That craps crazy.. i get nose bleeds at like 28…. 11%.. damn.. crazy.. maybe my house is just full of mold and leaks everywhere except i cant find any of it even after totalky remodeling…. Lol.. must be coming from the back of my head…
Lol damn you are dumb. A dehumidifier uses electricity, anything that uses electricity creates heat. If you are hot use an airconditioner it is basically exactly the same except it will actually move the heat outside therefore cooling your room and lowering the humidity.
Yeah i think dew point affects heat index or whatever you call how hot or cold a person feels. So i think the answer should be is to dehumidify then turn the AC and it will dramatically cool the room, then turn it of to save power. Hopefully youll have that feeling of cool longer Im not sure if being a liberal or not being one has anything to do about it tho

Rick your house is low humidity try 90% in Texas

Is the exhaust bad to breath in?
your humidity is only 25%. msybe it would work better for me as mine gets up to 70%
Running the exhaust out the window like a portable A/C would probably solve the issue if they were engineered that way.
some de-humidifiers use MORE than 1000 watts... so yours isn't so bad at 500 watts. Humidity below 40 or 50% is the goal.... not ZERO percent.
Try it in our midwest 90% humidity.
I don't think anyone is trying to use these INSTEAD of a/c, they're using it in addition to a/c

Does AC work better with dry or humid air?
High humidity cancels out the air conditioner's cooling effect. When the humidity is too high, your building will feel warmer than it is. You may find yourself running the air conditioner harder for longer and not getting the desired effects.
That's from Google. So if you live in a hot area, you need air conditioning. If you live in a very dry, hot area, you can use evaporative cooling.
Other than the desert Southwest, USA's hot states are humid. The slight increase in temperature from a dehumidifier is worth the extra cooling from the a/c after you've brought the humidity down.
Ask Texans and cajuns the difference in their electric bills (ones who run dehumidifiers with their a/c versus the ones who don't).
it is the heater inside dehumidifier that makes the room hotter, the heater to dry out the moisture of the air
Lol damn you are dumb. There is no heater in a dehumidifier that dries out the air, there is a cold surface that the water condenses on. But yes anything that uses electricity will create heat so there for a dehumidifier will heat your room.
Well because you are exhausting hot air into the room
ıs there any chance to change it?
@Ace Report bro can I ask you a question?
I know that when the air turned into cold it leaves the water and the air turned into dry. And when the air becomes hot it contain humaid and water from circumstances and nature.thats why we feel cool in winter because of the air is dry.
My asking is if the dry is cold and humid air is hot to feeling. So why dehumidifier make the air hot even its make the air dry.
@@Monsurislam9 a dehumidifier uses electricity, anything that uses electricity creates heat, even your television heats your room.
You have to use either a dessicant based or passive sea salt de-humidifier to see the benefits of dehumidification.
Using this gas guzzling dehumidifier is not efficient.
Thank you so much, for this confirmation *Rick Rude* . I thought my humidifier was broke(like Wtf its hotter in here now??) and the humidity was 77%, so I gave it away haha.
It sounds to me like your brain is broken. Anything that uses electricity creates heat.
Hi everyone I'm from Philippines, can anyone Try air cooler like midea, dowell or iwata brand. And Dehumidifier In the same CLOSED ROOM. The dehumidifier place in the back of air cooler not so close (I'm not good science guys). As the Air cooler produce more moist in the air were the humidity is get higher , so may Dehumidifier absorb the moist( Dehumidifier Release hot air) So when dehumidifier is in the back of the Air cooler, the Air cooler suck the hot air from the Dehumidifier to fuel it's Honey comb pad From heat air and release cold air.. Why do you think guys may it be work OR NOT??? Sorry for my English.
Your humidity level is way too low. Should target around 35-50%. I prefer 45%. You need to educate yourself.
Flawed video... dehumidifier is 10 times the size for a small room.
try 85% humidity
Yea for about 10 minutes then its gonna get up in the 90’s and suckers just gonna be hot.. the type of hot where your hands dry out, mouth gets all sticky, and you feel the warm blow of the dehumidifier..
And how the hell you get the room down to 11%? That craps crazy.. i get nose bleeds at like 28…. 11%.. damn.. crazy.. maybe my house is just full of mold and leaks everywhere except i cant find any of it even after totalky remodeling…. Lol.. must be coming from the back of my head…
Mine keeps my camper cool. You can disagree and that's fine. be a liberal if ya want. 🤣
Lol damn you are dumb. A dehumidifier uses electricity, anything that uses electricity creates heat. If you are hot use an airconditioner it is basically exactly the same except it will actually move the heat outside therefore cooling your room and lowering the humidity.
Yeah i think dew point affects heat index or whatever you call how hot or cold a person feels.
So i think the answer should be is to dehumidify then turn the AC and it will dramatically cool the room, then turn it of to save power. Hopefully youll have that feeling of cool longer
Im not sure if being a liberal or not being one has anything to do about it tho
@@dotsdot5608 no you do not ever use a dehumidifier to try to cool a room, dehumidifiers are heaters, get that through your head.
@@Kyle-ut4jg Dehumidifiers reduce humidity which is important for comfort in humid areas.
Lol I would die to have 25% in the south, the problem is you use celcius, use ferenheight like a real person 👍 metric system is a joke 💯
u are a joke
lol Americans
So the rest of the world is a joke ? Must be nice talking out of your ass haha, oh and it’s spelled Fahrenheit your super real person 💯
