Luftentfeuchter indoor

i have a true 50-pt dehum. it barely keeps up with a 40sq ft area. In late flower i sometimes have to remove some leaves to control humidity. This is also in the winter when my house would have an ambient rh of 30-35%, which even with that context, can barely keep up once the area is fully grown. i'm looking for a 70-pt replacement as we speak. i ran it so hard it broke after 3-4 years of use. one of the benefits of going bigger than necessary - less wear-n-tear over time and probably a bit more efficient as you scale up. the key is keeping up with RH as temps drop after lights go out. if it can handle that and maintain RH during lights on, it's the "right size"

30-pt according to 2019 DOE standards in america would do it. You could maybe use a smaller one, but with dehumidifiers definitely advantageous to go 1 size up. this is 30pts per 24 hours potential moisture removal from air in 60F / 60% RH context. Depending on where you are, they may list how much moisture it can remove per 24hours based on 90F / 90% RH, which is absurd and bloated. Figure 40-50% of that value if they don't list the capabilities under 60F/60% context. e,g, a 60-70pt dehum under DOE rules in america could be listed as a 150pt dehum somewhere else, which is absurd and unrealistic. Even amazon while using it in america has a bunch of products not listing these specifications according to the law, here.
