Dehumidifier Capacity Calculator
Overview
Choosing the right dehumidifier capacity depends on room size, temperature, current humidity, and target humidity levels. Our dehumidifier capacity calculator tool is ideal for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. With these parameters, you can determine the appropriate dehumidifier capacity for your needs.
How the Dehumidifier Capacity Calculation Works
Our calculator uses the following parameters to suggest the right capacity:
Room Size
Current Temperature
Current Humidity Level
Desired Humidity Level
The tool will calculate the amount of water (liters) that needs to be removed from the air to reach your target humidity level, based on your provided conditions.

Results:
Dehumidification per Hour: Ltr/hr or Pints/hr
Dehumidification per Day: Ltr/day or Pints/day
Choosing the Right Dehumidifier
Steps for Commercial Applications
- Collect Room Details: Gather information on room size, current temperature, current and target humidity levels, and air exchange rate (if applicable).
- Use Our Calculator: Input this data into our free capacity calculation tool.
- Compare Models: Review performance charts of dehumidifiers with similar capacities.
- Select the Type: Choose from floor-standing, wall-mounted, or duct-mounted dehumidifiers based on your installation needs.
- Match the Conditions: For normal temperatures, use a condensation dehumidifier. For temperatures below 10°C, select a desiccant or frost-resistant model.
How to Use the Capacity Calculator
Input Parameters
- Current Temperature (°C): Enter the highest temperature typically recorded in the space, as this affects the required capacity.
- Current Humidity Level %RH: Enter the highest current humidity level. Use a hygrometer for accurate readings, especially in commercial settings.
- Target Humidity %RH: Input the desired humidity level. For homes or offices, a range of 40%-60% is ideal.
- Room Size: Enter the room’s length, width, and height in meters. Or, if you know the room’s volume, simply enter the cubic meters.
After entering these values, click “Calculate Dehumidifier Capacity” to view the recommended capacity.
Understanding the Results
The result will display the required dehumidification capacity in kg/hr or liters/hr. This is the amount of water the dehumidifier should remove per hour to maintain your target humidity level.
