I’m happy so far
Had this a few weeks now. Used it in a few rooms now. Usually for three hours at a time in each room and definitely removes moisture. Use it in garage for keeping moisture out of my motorcycle 😃

Amazing little machine.
Highly recommend this compact little machine. It has been working around the clock coping with damage builders have done to my house from lack of gutters and scaffolding boards right up against the building leaving Water to cascade into the building. Recommend this particular model because it comes with a 2 m lead Meaning you don’t have to use extension leads, et cetera. Lovely compact little design.

Love it! Super happy
Me and my partner brought this a few weeks ago and love it. Our house has a damp problem and we love seeing the results after having it on for a while. It's not too loud and it's super easy to use and take out the water.

Hello Craig.
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for Challenge D015B 12L Dehumidifier.
Yes, a 12L dehumidifier can help dry out floorboards and carpet after a water leak has been fixed — but its effectiveness depends on a few key factors:
What it can do:
Extract up to 12 litres of moisture per day (under optimal conditions).
Help reduce humidity levels in the room, which speeds up the drying of porous materials like wood and carpet.
Prevent mould and mildew growth by keeping the environment dry.
Considerations:
Room Size: A 12L unit is typically suitable for small to medium rooms (e.g., bedrooms, small living rooms). If the affected area is large, it might be underpowered.
Extent of Water Damage: If the floorboards or carpet are saturated, you may need:
A wet vacuum or carpet extractor first.
A larger dehumidifier (20L+), or multiple units.
Air Circulation: Use fans to improve airflow and help the dehumidifier work more efficiently.
Temperature: Dehumidifiers work best in warmer environments (above 15°C). If it's cold, drying will be slower.
Thank you for using Q & A.
