What Size Dehumidifier Do I Need?
What pint capacity do you actually need?
Quick Answer
For a moderately damp room of 500 square feet, you need a 30-pint dehumidifier. Very damp or wet spaces need 40–50 pints. Basements over 1,000 sq ft typically require a 50–70 pint unit. The right size runs fewer hours and costs less to operate than an undersized unit working overtime.
