-

THE Malaysian weather is too humid and can cause damage to valuable items such as wood furnishing­s, leather products, video equipment, books, cameras and musical instrument­s, especially in a non air-conditione­d room.

With Firenzzi’s compact sized yet powerful dehumidifi­er that has a humidity absorption coverage of up to 25.1sq m (270 sq ft), all your valuables will be kept safe and protected from destructiv­e organisms such as fungus, mould or mildew. The compact size also provides easy storage and convenienc­e.

Why do you need a Firenzzi dehumidifi­er?

In tropical countries like Malaysia, the humidity level is especially high in places such as Genting Highlands, Cameron Highlands and Fraser’s Hill. Besides that, houses or shops near forests or bungalows with tunnel storerooms require a dehumidifi­er. This is because the air is too damp and the air moisture can cause musky smells, odours and even the formation of fungus.

Firenzzi de-humidifier works by extracting excess air moisture from the air indoors to prevent damage to your valuables.

Benefits of using a dehumidifi­er

If your home is musty or has mould, the problem could be your indoor humidity levels are too high. You can fix these problems, and add a whole lot of other benefits by using a dehumidifi­er. Here’s what you need to know:

> Dehumidifi­er reduces mustiness and mould to create a healthier home/environmen­t. An overly humid environmen­t will make your home smell musty, and the condition will get worse where you can see mould and mildew growing on ceilings or walls.

If you are sensitive to mould, breathing in these spores can cause nasal stuffiness, eye or skin irritation, sneezing or wheezing.

Dust mites, the most common trigger of allergy and asthma symptoms, also thrive in high humidity. A dehumidifi­er brings down the level of moisture in your home, making it unfriendly to dust mites and limiting the growth of mould and mildew. If you suffer from asthma or allergies, a dehumidifi­er is essential for you.

Besides, a dehumidifi­er also makes a positive change for your family, especially the elderly by preventing excess moisture and humid air that aggravate fatigue and physical conditions such as arthritis and rheumatism. It may help to prevent respirator­y disorders.
