Finding the best dehumidifier for conservatory air quality depends on a range of factors, including overall room size and level of damp. Beyond that, there is the noise level to consider, especially for so many who use the lightest space at home to work or study. These units can also vary massively in size, and while most are similarly sleek and inconspicuous in design, you still need to consider how much space you want to dedicate to such a machine.
We’ve picked five of the best dehumidifiers currently on the market and considered their relative pros and cons. Read on to find out which is the best dehumidifier for your conservatory
1. Pro Breeze 500ml Compact and Portable Mini Air Dehumidifier
Lightweight and compact, the 500ml capacity portable Pro Breeze dehumidifier is perfect for conservatories that are on the smaller side with no heavy damp problems.
The smallest dehumidifier on this list, it gets its spot due to the power it packs relative to its low price. Removing 250ml of moisture a day, its 500ml capacity tank automatically shuts off when full and so can be maxed out for at least two days before it requires attention.
It runs quietly and efficiently without a compressor. Its small size makes it completely portable, so it can be moved all over the house to remove damp and improve air quality in any room.
The positives include the high energy efficiency, little to no noise and the great value for money Pro Breeze can offer. On the other hand, the small capacity means it cannot be used in large rooms without having multiple units.

It has a little more capacity with a 600ml tank and can remove 300ml of water a day.
This second specially designed portable dehumidifier is a model from Auzkin.
It’s the lack of compressor in the Auzkin that keeps the operational volume low, making it ideal for running in the background whether you’re entertaining, relaxing or working in your conservatory.
Its low price reflects its relatively low capacity but for conservatories on the smaller side, this should be a bonus rather than a drawback. Even for its size, it is remarkably energy efficient and you’ll barely notice any increase on your energy bill even with regular use.
The main benefits of this is the high energy efficiency but the equally impressive low noise in the background as well. Again, serious damp issues in large rooms may be an issue, but this dehumidifier should work perfectly for most conservatories.
3. Meaco Dry Dehumidifier ABC Range 10/12L
This brand’s quietest compressor-based dehumidifier, the Meaco Dry Dehumidifier from the ABC Range, benefits from high energy efficiency, costing just 2.4p per hour to run, or 15.2p/kWh.
Despite the compressor and a relatively high level volume of absorption (10 litres a day), it is still compact enough to be truly portable, making it an ideal choice if you need to use it all over the house, not just in your conservatory.
You can choose from a range of attractive colours which include green, blue, silver, black and white, there’s also a 12-litre model available if more capacity is required without leaping to a larger model.
This model is a good value mid-sized option to have, and I really like the automatic switch off and defrost settings. The only caveat is that it does have a lower absorption capacity than similarly priced models and will Not for large or very damp spaces.

4. Pro Breeze 20L/Day Dehumidifier
The Pro Breeze 20L/Day dehumidifier may be one of the pricer models on the market but it does work overtime, removing up to 20 litres of water each day, while still using low levels of energy.
This makes it ideal for both large conservatories and inside rooms as its massive 5.5-litre tank also comes with a drainage hose so you can use it continuously and long term.
This feature means it is especially suited to areas with real problem damp such as basements, making this a very versatile model.
Big conservatory? No problem, this model is ideal for large conservatories or heavy damp. It also automatically maintains favoured humidity levels, a huge plus. Though all this does have the consequence of not being the quietest of dehumidifier’s.

5. Inventor Eva II Pro Ion 20 Litres/day Dehumidifier
This offering from Inventor brings fresher air to your conservatory by combining a powerful dehumidifier with an ioniser, as well as a laundry drying function.
The Inventor Eva II Pro Ion Dehumidifier also takes out a massive 20 litres a day on full power, however with a tank that can only hold up to 3 litres and no hose, it’ll need regular emptying when used for long periods.
Good job then it comes with a window for checking levels and full water alert. If you need to dehumidify in a hurry while you relax in your conservatory, you can put it on turbo mode and still enjoy peace and quiet by setting it to silent.
Its fully programmable digital display panel puts you reliably in control with the ability to set your optimum humidity level, plus a timer and an auto-restart function to switch it back on after a power cut.
We’re huge fans of this elite dehumidifier. The 3-in-1 dehumidifying, ionising and laundry drying functions, coupled with high daily capacity and freedom to set optimum humidity levels outweigh the negatives of having a rather modestly-sized small drainage tank.
