"The MovinCool fast-drying and cooling setup speeds the drying process and spot cools at the same time," said John Doran, manager, heat management department. "It can mean the difference between a quick recovery and a lot of downtime, lost work hours, lost records, and lost data."
According to Doran, all of its models exceed the dehumidification requirements specified by the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers (AHAM) for areas up to 2,500 square feet.
In the fast-drying setup, as the cooling unit pushes cool, dry air into the room, an added duct recycles the warm, dry exhaust air generated by the cooling process into the damp areas of the room where it absorbs moisture and draws it back into the spot cooler where it condenses out, explained Doran.
