How the Dehumidifier Rod Works:
The Dampp-Chaser Closet Dehumidifier Rod is a very simple electrical device that is mounted on the closet baseboard (brackets are included). The dehumidifier rod warms, dries and circulates air in the confined storage space through a continuous convection process. As the air is warmed, it becomes lighter and rises to the upper section of the enclosed space. At the same time, cooler, moist air sinks to the bottom where it is warmed again and the cycle begins again to keep your stored valuables protected from mold, mildew, rust and rot. The slight warming and drying of the air lowers its relative humidity and combined with the gentle circulation of the drier air; results in just the conditions you need to discourage mold growth. Just be sure to leave the Dampp-Chaser on during the moist seasons. Electrical use is minimal. For pennies a day, you can be assured of mold-free clothing and easier breathing.
Comes in four sizes with different wattages:
18" - 12 Watts - Works well in 3'x3'x8' closets
24" - 15 Watts - Works well in 4'x3'x8' closets
36" - 25 Watts - Works well in 4'x6'x8' closets
48" - 35 Watts - Works well in 5'x8'x8' closets
Choose the correct size and wattage for your storage area:
To protect your area, you will need approximately 1 watt per 10 cubic feet of enclosed space. You can find the cubic feet of your closet by multiplying the width x depth x height in feet. For example, if your area is 8 ft wide 5 ft deep and 8ft tall; it would be 320 cubic feet, you will need 32 watts so the 48" model producing 35 watts would be the best choice.
Use the the Dampp-Chaser to keep food in the pantry dry, fresh and crisp, in linen closets to keep your linens fresh-smelling and mildew-free, in basements to protect your tools from rust and in rental storage units to protect your stored valuables.
The Dampp-Chaser folks have been making Drying Rods in the USA since 1947. They started out protecting pianos from the damages of changing humidity. These rods are a component in that system in addition to being used for closets, storage rooms, boats and RVs.
The Dampp Chaser rods come with a 10 year warranty.
