When we designed the DD8L Zambezi, we used lots of customer feedback and input those ideas and suggestions into the final design. The result is a dehumidifier that is full of the features you really want to see – from the digital display to the laundry feature. This attention to detail has made the DD8L Zambezi our best-selling product, with hundreds of great customer reviews.
There are several world firsts on this dehumidifier:
The first domestic desiccant dehumidifier to have a digital display
The first to have a sterilising ioniser
The first to have the exclusive Meaco Energy Saving Laundry+
The first to have the Meaco Turn Me On function
The first to have the unique Meaco 20+ control
The first to have a Daily Run Timer, On Timer and an Off Timer
Let’s look at one of these – Laundry+
Cost-Efficient Drying For Indoor Laundry
One of the major causes of condensation and mould in the home is drying clothes on radiators or a clothes horse in the winter. As the clothes dry, moisture is released into the air and the air becomes damp. The room air feels colder, condensation forms on windows and mould grows faster. Opening windows rarely helps this process – and your room becomes more expensive to heat because the air is holding more moisture.
Your granny will tell you that the best way to dry washing on the line in summer is on a warm, dry and windy day. So it’s not a huge surprise to learn that the best way to dry washing indoors is by recreating those summer conditions. The best way to do this is by using a dehumidifier – but make sure you choose the right one. All dehumidifiers claim that they help to dry laundry but some do it better than others!
How Does A Dehumidifier Help?
Dehumidifiers create the dry air and the fan creates the wind but that wind has to hit the washing for the clothes to dry effectively and quickly. This is where the rotating louvre comes in, driving the dry air across the clothes, up and down, over and over again – you can even direct the air left or right if you have heavier clothes that need extra drying time.
Customers who use a dehumidifier to dry their laundry put the clothes and the clothes horse into a small room with the dehumidifier next to them. Using a small room enables the dehumidifier to dry the air faster and achieve the low relative humidity that you need to dry the clothes.
And this is where you see the Zambezi difference. Whereas other dehumidifiers will just run and run regardless of the room conditions, Zambezi senses when the air is dry enough reduce its energy consumption so that as little power as possible is being used. If possible it will switch into fan only mode and will only turn its dehumidification cycle back on if the relative humidity starts to rise again. This is the power of the Laundry+ feature, and it can help to save you time and money.
Zambezi could dry your washing in the same time or faster than other desiccant dehumidifiers and yet use around 600 watts less.
The combination of the energy-saving intelligent Laundry + control, the high airflow and the rotating louvre makes Zambezi a viable alternative to a tumble dryer and the preferred choice to dry your washing with a dehumidifier.
For every Zambezi dehumidifier sold worldwide Meaco will donate £2 to the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation’s conservation work.
