Dehumidifier

[Foiled Again]

I'm fulltiming in a 22ft CCD and even though my air conditioning keeps the unit nice and cold, there is still a humidity issue. Hey, it's Virginia in late summer; the humidity is always 98% or higher. One source of stored humidity seems to be my foam mattress - which I don't like anyway. I'm replacing it with a custom inner spring one (oval so I can turn it side to side - I'll use pillows in the inside corners).

I'm looking for a very compact dehumidifier too. Any ideas?

Try using google and search on "marine dehumidifiers". Boats have the same problem as those of us in FL. I found a "DH-5" but have not been able to track down who manufactures it. Nor have I not found any brand name to go with that model number.

Hope this helps.

We bought a Walmart special. It fits between the two recliners and does a dandy job.

I purchased an upright unit from LOWES, it does the job and then some. One needs a good estimate of the cubic footage of the trailer interior to make a sensible purchase. As to marine pieces, a long time favorite for storage is the GOLDEN ROD. See WEST MARINE.

My trailer is in covered storage and I hope to be able to move it before late spring to another covered space with electricity so that I can run the de-humidifier and keep the batteries charged up, etc. I'll place the dehumidifier in the kitchen sink and let it drain into the other side.

You did say small? I got one of these at a thrift shop for $4.00, but haven't had a chance to try it in the Bambi yet. It runs quiet, and I did notice it got some favorable reviews.
