Electronic control panelDC18 has an electronic control panel with intelligent display and touch button technology. Manage humidity levels via a Touch Button control pad with LED display allowing total control of your appliance. Set the required level via the Humidity Display and benefit from other Self Diagnosis indicators such as Clean Me filter indicators. Manage controlled sessions too with the convenient 2 and 4 hour timer function. | Continuous hose (optional)You may use the hose provided (one metre length of 14 mm diameter) for continuous drainage to a drain or sink to save emptying the tank regularly. You will need to unscrew the cap at the back of the dehumidifier, remove the rubber bung from the nozzle and attach the hose into the drain connector. | Water tankThe DC18 has a 3.5 L tank capacity, positioned at the front of the dehumidifier. There is no need to move the dehumidifier when removing the tank to empty. There is a lid covering the tank to avoid spillage. To remove the water tank, slide it out gently by gripping the water tank from both sides and lift it carefully. |

Condensation
Condensation is formed when warm moist air hits cold surfaces (windows, mirrors, walls, etc). Moisture in the air can also be caused by daily routines like cooking, showering, drying clothes indoor, even opening windows on a hot humid day, rainy day and when snow melts. Condensation can be reduced by using a dehumidifier to reduce the water content in the air (moisture).
Heavy condensation can cause damage to door and window frames, can increase humidity level causing air borne bacteria and discomfort.

Great machine for size
Very efficient dehumidifier, dries of washing very quickly.
Great size, easy to store and very manoeuvreable.
Great for drying clothes
I moved into a small old cottage with limited place to dry laundry and no gas central heating. The cottage is cold but this dehumidifier is perfect for drying laundry and taking the damp out of the air and therefore raising the temperature in the cottage. I use it overnight on economy 7 and in the morning the clothes are dry and the downstairs warm. It does the exact job I needed it to and I’m pleased.
Noticed changes immediately
Fantastic machine! It isn’t silent but the humming noise is bearable. We use that whenever we are drying clothes in the house, and bedding has dried completely within a fee hours. It has cleared up our damp issue I the bedroom too, so we don’t need to have it on everyday anymore. Highly recommend!

Very happy with this
I had a smaller version (12 litre) so was confident that’d this one would work well and it has. You can definitely see the difference in the water extracted.
The best purchase ever you can make in Scotland
We’ve been using this for more than a year and half, and it’s still working great 🙂 one of the best purchases I ever made. The clothes are always dry and there is no missing in the house.
Great machine
Great machine done a great job at keeping moisture down but does use a lot electric but that’s to be expected with these and probably a lot better than mos
Excelle
Noise level really good. Really easy to move around.. defo dose the job
Excellent de-humidifier.
Really recommend this de-humidifier. It has helped us out enormously with damp due to flat roof leaking and finlock guttering problems. No more black mold problems.
ECOAIR DC12 dehumidifier.brilliant.
This machine is excellent. I have 2 of these now 1 upstairs 1 downstairs moved from room to room ever now and then. They keep every room moisture and mold free. I would highly recommend and would not hesitate to replace should one fail. Not too noisy, energy efficient and do a fantastic job.

great for drying out!
Took me a while to use this properly, but since I have mastered it, it is used a lot with great effect. I use it in the winter to dry my washing, which is brillia
Keeps damp away!
I have two of these already.
Always reliable (so far!)
Helps with drying washing and keeps damp away!
Well designed uni
Excellent. Pulling lots of water out of the damp house. Windows no longer streaming!
Compact and effective
Good value product that is effective in reducing effects of condensation, operates quietly and is easy to move
Great item
This has done a great job. its still doing a great job after three years.
One of the best home items we ever bough
After some years using it, we are very happy with it. It looks great, is not too noisy and dehumidifies a lot of water helping a lot with both damp and wet clothes.
Is quite easy to move, not to heavy and small (enough to place it even on the stairs) – my only criticism would be the lead cable length, but still longer than most other appliances.
If you are looking for a dehumidifier, this is a great choice (unless they have a newer/better version)

Keeps my bathroom mold-free
Have been using this dehumidifier daily in my bathroom for the past two years to prevent mold growth. It works great and does the job brilliantly. Easy to move around and easy to empty the water container. I would happily give it five stars, however the touch pannel (used to turn the machine on/off) developed a cosmetic fault – transparent film covering the surface of the panel separated from the base and now looks and feels like a loose piece of cellophane. The buttons and the device still work, but the look is affected

It works well and I’m very pleased with it👍🏻
It’s really good and easy to move, it makes a great difference anywhere in your home. Wish I had bought one sooner.
Will be fine for a few years
Lasted about 3 years so far but has recently started growing mould and rusting around the radiator where moisture builds up.
Hopefully a good clean will take care of the awful smell.
Solid and fast-working.
Easy to set desired humidity level. I like that it can be set to run for 2 or 4 hours: so I can put it on and go to bed but I know it’s not going to run all night. Two days after we got it, I was carrying it through a doorway and the cord caught on the doorhandle. Dehumidifier hit the ground with a bang (as did my stomach) but to my surprise nothing internal was in the slightest loose, none of the external panels cracked, nothing wrong at all. So that’s impressive.
Works very well but don’t expect silent operato
Good to have a humidity display. Seems to lower the humidity level pretty quickly in a room 15×10 feet. You can definitely hear it, it’s not quiet. Ample reservoir capacity and amazing to see how much water is collected.
Super dupe
What a fantastic machine my house was damp and I had unfortunately lost clothes and shoes to mould. I purchased this machine and was shocked at how much water it collected on a daily basis.
Well after a few weeks the difference to the air in the house was amazing. I use it when I have to hang damp laundry in the house and it’s dry overnight.
This is an amazing product and would recommend it to anyone.
Brilliant product.
We have a minor damp ingress in our cellar. The buttons on the top of the unit are largely self explanatory, but the instructions are worth reading (and are easy to do so), just so that you understand how it operates and what you can expect. Sadly I cannot make use of the permanent drain away option (being down in the cellar) so have to empty the easily removable container whenever it’s full, which at present is still about once or twice a day. We have been incredibly impressed at the amount of water this machine continues to extract from the air throughout the day/night. The display tells you what the relative humidity is whenever it is operating. The two fan settings allow you to adjust the extraction rate and the noise level (which is reasonably quiet). All in all an excellent little unit and would strongly recommend it.

5 years of glorious dehumidificatio
Bought on 11/2015 it last till 03/2020. I have just bought the same one again! Amazing machine 5 years of glorious dehumidification on my house! Every day on! Thanks Dc12 you have been amazing and now is time to let you go!
Efficie
Easy to move around and really does take a lot of moisture out of the air. I bought due to respiratory health concerns of living in a flat with damp/condensation issues. The addded bonuss is you can also use this to aid indoor clothes drying.
4.5 years and still going strong...
Had this for around 4.5 years now and use it almost every day to help dry the washing in the apartment and reduce condensation after showering. The unit has just kept on going with no trouble at all and gets the job done. Timer function is handy so it doesn’t stay on for the whole day while out. Easy to empty. Zero maintenance. If it broke I’d buy the same one again. Highly recommend.

Very effective. Worth the money.
Very effective (I am using the product for 1 year and a half). Fit for the purpose also, the clothes drying option is unbelievable efficient. You will be amazed how much water is collected in 8 hours.
Perfect for drying clothes
Had this for 6 months after moving into a flat I wondered how I was going to dry clothes this was the perfect solution. I set it to 4 hour timer top fan speed on laundry mode and it’s almost dry in that time the results are really incredible
Works really well
I’ve a couple of these dehumidifiers and they’re very effective and not too noisy although they’d be distracting if we’re in the same room, I use mine with a smart plug to control them remotely and on a schedule which is very effective when away from home, capacity is good and even when using them to help washing to dry don’t require emptying too often.

Great machine, so reasonable size and sucks out a lot of moisture. We can’t go without it in colder months. Also helps when drying laundry. This is our second machine after the first one broke after 5 years.

great machine easy use in 3 bed semi running 8 hour a day thumbs up
We have an EcoAir DC 14 in our coal cellar and a DC12 (purchased in 2018) in our long cellar. We chose and repeat purchased the EcoAir Compact Portable Dehumidifiers on their attractive design, their energy efficiency and their high performance in doing the job that we bought them for, namely, to control the humidity level to 55-60 %. We use them 24/7 (with the exception of when away on holiday) emptying the collected water approx every 12 hours. On their performance the EcoAir would be our first choice for a repeat purchase.

After two year works perfectly
I’m using this dehumidifier for two years now and bought 3 of them for three different places, all are Still working perfectly same as first day and it still give two 3.5litter tank full of water per day. When I don’t use it for couple of days my house get damp and windows get wet. Happy to have i
Great piece of ki
Has been on pretty much 24/7 since we got it which was to dry out a damp wall. Draws maybe two litres over night normally, but will fill the four litre tank with a full clothes horse of washing. Seems more efficient than using the tumble dryer. Noise-wise it’s fine to leave running downstairs while sleeping.
Very good!
Really good dehumidifier would definitely recommend. Had it two years and still going strong. Really helps to dry clothes and keep our flat moisture free. Humidity can be over 80% when I leave for work at 8am in the morning, I switch on when I’m leaving and by the time I get home at 3pm humidity is down to around 60% and lots of water collected and that’s just in a small flat. Isn’t as noisy as other dehumidifiers I’ve had but is fairly loud, not great of you’re in the same room as it but if you had a spare room you could put it in or put on when you go out wouldn’t be an issue. Don’t mind it for an hour or two if in the same room but noise does get on your nerves after a while.

Works well but does seem to produce more cold air than our previous dehumidifier? It can easily chill a small conservatory for instance, on the flip side great if used in the Summer I would imagine
Easy to use
We took a while choosing the model but happy so far ! Timer function is great , means you can go out and leave on without the worry of getting back. Filter is easy to remove and clean, water tank is simple to empty (haven’t tried the hose function) . It has a low humming noise which I now find really soothing but isn’t quiet ! We have a 3 bed house with a flat roof and is perfect , I leave on for 2 hours in the morning or evening and empty every couple of days . Occasionally use the washing function .
Does the job..
Humidistat function is great – you preset the % humidity you want (40-60% being the recommended range) and the dehumidifier automatically stops when it reaches the preset level – avoids overdrying the air. The unit looks modern and well designed, and it rolls easily on my wooden hallway flooring, but it is heavy so I probably wouldn’t want to have to move it upstairs for example. The tank is a little awkward to carry when taking it out to empty, but that’s a minor issue. Mostly very happy with it. NB: Don’t take any notice of the extraction rate claimed by any dehumidifier manufacturer – I think they must test them in lab conditions which replicate a tropical rainforest, not the average UK home… I live in a 1930s house with solid brick walls (no cavity) and specialist builder who deals with damproofing etc recommended all such households would benefit from using a dehumidifier during winter months, to avoid condensation, etc. Judging by the amount of water this unit is sucking out of the air in my house, it was good advice…
Just the job!
I got this to use in a small utility room with condenser tumble dryer that always had condensation on the walls. Problem solved. The amount of water this takes out of the air is amazing. Very happy with my purchase.
No more damp
Had lots of condensation on the windows, damp and mould. That is now managed with this in the room. Needs to be emptied every couple of days which is fine. Noise is noticable but I wear headphones a lot. Easy setup and is shaped so it can be out of the way. Quite big but not too heavy.

A nicely designed and very effective dehumidifie
This dehumidifier works well and looks less ugly than other models that we considered. The water tank is a good size and it clears condensation very well. It has definitely made a big difference for us.
Despite its effectiveness we have noticed that the timer function is limited and there doesn’t seem to be a child lock for the controls. Our tank has also started to show signs of mould, but will be difficult to clean due to its design.
Overall this is a good and very effective dehumidifier with a few minor points that could be better.
A little loud
Fairly neat unit, works well, but a lot louder than expected compared to an older product from the same manufacture

Handy piece of technology.
Very smart looking device. Amazing how much water it extracts in 4 hours, especially when drying washing. Helps it to dry much quicker as well. Used mainly for this but occasionally left on our landing to clear condensation from windows. Also read that it’s good to use to remove excess damp from air for asthma sufferers which my daughter is so gives me a bit of peace of mind too.
Quick laundry drying
Really impressed with this purchase, cant believe the volumes of water that have come out of it so far! Great for a laundry room and to help with damp too. Very impressed. Looks great, a little on the heavy side but it has feet that make it easy to slide on carpet.
Don't hesitate, buy this now!
We live in a 1 bed ground floor flat and have always struggled with damp especially in the winter. Wish we’d bought this sooner, its been AMAZING. No more damp, our clothes dry within a few hours and it helps keeps the house warm. Absolutely brilliant!
Excellent little machine
I bought mine in 2016 so this is a very late review. If you are thinking of buying this do it! It’s a fairly compact dehumidifier that has been working like a champ since I purchased mine. I mainly use it to dry my clothes and extract excess moisture during days when it’s humid. I’ve had other dehumidifiers before but EcoAir is the best. I am now moving to a new flat and my soon to be ex landlord has asked me the model no. as he will be buying one for the new tenant moving in.
Very effective at reducing condensation.
Bought this to reduce condensation in the kitchen, windows would often run with condensation but not any more. I run it for a few hours a day around the time we are cooking and we get almost no condensation even when the temp drops below zero. Usually fills the tank over a few days so extracts approx 1l over 3 hrs at 22-23 degrees c so in line with advertised performance.
The noise is quite noticeable but not intrusive over a tv in the next room.

We love this product! We bought as our house doesn’t have great ventilation as we don’t have a fan in the bathroom. I was shocked at how much water it collects and how quickly! I feel like the air is cleaner. It is also great in the winter when drying clothes indoors, it reduces moisture in the air and reduces any damp smells. It is very heavy product to move around but great that it also has wheels. We use the 2hour function often. Couldn’t recommend more!

amazing effec
I have a small 2 bedroom terrace house. I had new double glazing fitted. The damp got so bad, the water was dripping off the walls and windows, black mould growing on the ceilings, after I had repainted them. Unit transformed the house. It’s sitting on the top landing. Runs during the day, has a 4 hour cut timer if needed. house is now nice and dry. Very easy to use
Highly recomended
Needed cleaning...
It turned up absolutely filthy, the box was poorly sealed but didn’t expect to clean a new product. Disappointed in that.
V efficient. Humidity readings not accurate
Good at extracting water. Dried my washing in around 6 hours. The fan on the side helps in the drying too. Humidity numbers I don’t think are v accurate but I just turn it on full fan then turn off when washing dried, so I just ignore the numbers.
Works and looks good but loud
This does remove a lot of water. Down sides are two: 1) The tank is fiddly to get back in when emptied. 2) It is very loud even on low power. The only way this could be acceptable in our house was to have it on a timer and only come on at night. In fairness this is a general problem with dehumidifiers but until I find one which is actually quiet 4 stars is the limit.

Great product.
Really easy to use and it really work. When doing laundry, it extracts full tank of 3.5l in like 10 hours.
Love it !
I’ve thought about getting a dehumidifier for years and so eventually did ..my flat built in 1895 got damp in 2 rooms ..I used the DC12 for the first time today in the worst room ..within 2 hours it collected a good amount of water and instantly feels dry ..should have bought this year’s ago !
Excellent product. Controls humidity perfectly and switches on and off when needed.
I purchased this to use in my green house. I cannot praise the unit enough. It’s controlling humidity perfectly and very economical as it switches itself off and on when needed. Excellent product.
Fantastic quality, don't hesitate to buy this, we've had ours for over a year with near constant use
Stillg ping strong after years of nearly constant use. This dehumidifier is a blessing! We use it to dry our clothes as being in the UK we don’t get much outdoor drying time. Very light and easily moved around the house. Good length cable. Good quality construction means it’s solid, it would break if you dropped it but hey, don’t drop it! I am always out to get the best quality product I can for the price I am willing to pay and I have absolutely no hesitation in saying that this is a top quality product and well worth spending money on.

Really effective.
This is a great product. It can run quietly in a room that you are in, or be left running by itself. It has an automatic cutout so it won’t overflow. It can also be adjusted should you need more/less moisture left in the air.
It has the side effect that it can be quite addictive in measuring how much water is taken out of each room at different times!
It does help dry clothes more quickly if they can’t be hung outside. It can be wheeled easily. Although it is a bit heavy/awkward to lift up stairs it is not too difficult to do so.
Not only do I highly recommend this, but I bought another one as a gift!

The best for the money!
We’ve got 3 of these and use them in our rental portfolio. They are the best for cost/ease of use/removal of humidity of any dehumidifier (usually very disappointing) that we have ever bought.
Heavy for portable but ok to push on the level from room to room. Sucks up a full tank of water over a day and takes it down from 85% humidity to about 45%. Wouldn’t do to leave it on if away as it would need emptied somehow (unless direct drain is used). Fan gives a slightly cool air. We only will use it in winter as old Crittal windows, but seems to be reducing the condensation and I’ve not seen any mould since getting it and after cleaning a load off with bleach before getting it. Don’t bother with it on if you have a bath or have an open window as pointless. Put it on after bath has drained and windows shut.
Heavy for portable but ok to push on the level from room to room. Sucks up a full tank of water over a day and takes it down from 85% humidity to about 45%. Wouldn’t do to leave it on if away as it would need emptied somehow (unless direct drain is used). Fan gives a slightly cool air.

I am impressed with this piece of kit. It replaced a dehumidifier I bought many years ago. There are so many more features than I had anticipated. I am well-pleased.
Excellent dehumidifier for my 3 bed apartme
I have been using this dehumidifier for over a year now and it is excellent. It does make noise but it hasn’t bothered me so far as I am generally not in the same room as it. It removes moisture from the air efficiently and helped with damp problem. Considering how much I use it I think the price is good. I would highly recommend.
Works perfectly in extremely humid environme
This works really well. We live in a small two bedroom apartment where moisture accumulates quickly onto the walls and windows, especially since the kitchen is directly connected to the living room, we have not much window room, not very good circulation of air even with the windows open, and no way to hang out our clothes outside when they’re drying. This keeps any mold from forming and even our clothes dry faster. Excellent product so fa
Value for money
Works perfectly and reasonably quiet. Only downside is how much electricity it uses if left on for long periods but would still recommend it if your looking for one . I use in a 4 bedroom house and need to empty once a day if used all day
Excellent dehumidifie
I have had this dehumidifier for 1month and it is excellent. I got it for the upstairs of our old house. It is very easy to use. it automatically calculates the humidity in the room and you can set the moisture level that is appropriate for you. It collects a large volume of water up to 18L. It is perfect for a big room. I place it on the landing upstairs and it works for the whole house. I have found it dries clothes if placed on the rack, and it also helps lessen any strong cooking smells in the house. so far so good.

Well suited for a small/medium sized apartme
Good: really good value for money. I bought this for a one-bedroom apartment that has an internal bathroom with a dodgy extractor fan. I keep it just outside the bathroom and it clears the steam out very quickly. It has also been effective at clearing moisture away from a leak in a wall from neighbouring property and at taking the moisture out of laundry drying indoors during winter.
Easy to operate, empty and clean.
Bad: you do need to angle it a bit to target certain areas so need to shift it around so ultimately have it on for quite a long time to completely clear an area.
Can be a bit noisy. Doesn’t matter too much with other noise during the daytime but too loud in the evening.
Not the lightest but is on casters so not such a big deal as coasts nicely on wooden floor.

Effective, efficient, quiet, excellent value.
I cannot comment on durability as we’ve only had this a week, but I can say it preforms extremely well. The instructions are clear and the control panel is straightforward. For such an effective unit it is small and slimline.
I ordered this particular dehumidifier as it’s a Which? Best Buy, with good water extraction, good energy efficiency and quietness of operation.
The filter is easy to remove and clean, the tank can be a little fiddly to remove and slot back in, especially as there is very little ground clearance, but you just need to take a minute to look where the guides are and what lines up where and it’s easy after that.
This is our third dehumidifier and easily the best. I highly recommend it.

I am familiar with using, dehumidifiers at home and in my “mancave”.
This one is for drying washing indoors. Sheets and clothing are hung in the bathroom after spin drying. This is a really powerful dehumidifier and the gentle heat that comes out with the air flow seems to help remove the humidity. Washings are dry within four or five hours. It does of course make some noise, but with the bathroom door closed you can hardly hear it. I would certainly recommend this 18litre model.
Wonderful really useful item.
We have ordered it a while ago now, but this product became so useful now, it keep the air dry and purified, we have had no issues at all, when emptying it, we also get so suprises how water from air it collected. Great thing.
Must buy for mold issues
Love it love it love it it helped removes the moisture from our rented apartment and noticeably less mold after a week of using it! Our leather products didn’t mold so quickly and it doesn’t make a crazy lot of noise either so would highly recommend this produc
Works Well. Needs better filter though
Works well, helps with our indoor laundry room. With the radiator – > cloths dry in hours, as apposed to Days [due to high humidity].
Does work well in large rooms. (not the whole house)
The main problem is the filter does let in dust and over time the innards get clogged with dust – which cannot be cleaned easily. i have yet to even attempt to take it totally apart [if even possible]
My current solution is place a kitchen roll sheet between the filter, which now it catches smaller particles.
Great for drying clothes .
Takes 8 to 12 hours to dry a full load of jeans, sheets etc . its not magic . i wish the timer function was longer as its only a 4 hour timer on the model i got . Costs 20 cents per 4 hour cycle .

Excellent dehumidifie
Not my first dehumidifier but definitely more sophisticated than previous ones. Quiet enough to sleep and leave on in the bedroom on low fan setting. Audio alarm when tank is full is great. Slim and sleek design and crucially does what it says on the tin taking out between 1 and four litres a day depending on humidity level (old Victorian property). Would highly recommend this machine.
For the first time in years I have been able to dry a washing inside and have minimal condensation on my windows (they are normally dripping at this time of year). I was amazed at how well it dealt with the moisture coming off just a small washing (in laundry mode), about 4 litres to be precise. Very impressed. It is also a sturdy unit, very easy to move around on the castors and very easy to empty. My only critisim is that it works in increments of 5 when recording humidity but a lot of dehumidifiers do. I would say this unit is very good value for its capacity and I don’t find it too noisy at all although I couldn’t sleep with it in the same room.

We'll designed compact uni
Have a fairly damp and old house, this is taking a significant amount of water out of the air and helping with damp control.
Not too big and bulky but big enough to make a difference.
Superb
Living in a hundred year old semi I have for the last two years battled moisture. It drives me potty and I can often, especially in the winter, come home and the house smells muggy. So after some research I settled on this model.
First thing that struck me was how small it was. It actually is compact. It is also very heavy. There are four wheels to move it about and sturdy hand grips for lifting.
Set up is straightforward. There is a large display that once on gives you your relative humidity reading. From there you have options. Using the plus and minus you can set your target humidity. If you drop it past 35% it goes into continuous operation mode and will run until full. Or set a percentage and it will run until it hits it.
You can control the speed of the fan to a degree or use the 2 or 4 hour timer. Theres a laundry mode and you can also use the pip outlet to plumb it in somewhere for continuous drainage. If you dont theres a generous 3.5 litre tank. Its easy to remove and empty from the front.
After a few weeks’ use it has earnt its money. The house doesnt smell or feel damp. As a result I have had less condensation on the windows and the heating is more effective as the air is drier. It also pumps out warm air too which is a bonus in winter,
Where you place it is key. I tend to leave it in the hall or on the landing for general all round use. However, if you have a problem room you could locate it there. Once I get one of my sockets reinstated I’ll likely situate it in the Kitchen diner.
Its clear to me my house is warmer and dryer and smells a lot better and should hopefully put paid to condensation and damp.
Looked at lots of reviews and ended up choosing this one. Had it going a few weeks and it’s made such a difference to our 3 bed house, the washing drys the same day when hung on clothes horse which means it still smells great.
Little louder than expected but we don’t have it on when sleeping so it’s no issue. Would highly recommend this of you have a bit of damp, have to dry clothes inside or if you have any chest conditions and moist air aggravates it.
You get what you pay for.
Its good; a bit pricey but works well. Have used it in the conservatory to get rid of condensation, in our old house that had a smell of damp when we moved in, and to dry clothes in the winter, and its done the job in all cases. The dog knocked the my first one over and broke it (he’s a big dog tho; 7 1/2 stone of enthusiatic rottwiler pup) and I’ve bought another the same to replace it.
