Eva-dry E-333 Renewable dehumidifier, Pack of 1, White Sand

Product Information

This dehumidifier has a high moisture-holding capacity and is suitable for small spaces. It can be used for up to 30 days before you need to recharge it. While we do like that the unit is incredibly small, especially with how much area it can cover, we wish the design was simpler and more attractive. On the plus side, since it is so compact, it can easily be hidden and out of sight. The design of Eva-Dry’s Petite Dehumidifier is disappointing. While it’s incredibly easy to use and compact enough to hide, it looks dated. It has a white plastic base and a blue collection tank that would have looked futuristic in the 1970s. We thought the “Eva-Dry” branding on the machine cheapened its look. It is also slightly more expensive than the Eva-dry E-333, which is a smaller dehumidifier from the same brand.

Once renewed, indicator beads will return to orange and the unit will be ready to absorb moisture again. AnswerTake a Q tip with rubbing alcohol and wipe down the vents in front of the unit. Put 1/3 bleach and 2/3 water in tank every 3 months to keep the tank clean. The lid cannot be removed from tank. The lid keeps the floatation device in place to shut off the unit when the tank is full. It is important to note that, the Eva-dry E-500 just like any other home-based dehumidifier is not the right device for eliminating excess moisture and water from home after floods.That being said, such a large dehumidifier would be overkill for a small only mildly humid space. The E-333 and E-500 certainly have their uses and we recommend them for the same spaces that Eva-Dry recommends them for – damp closets, cabinets, etc. We strongly disagree with Eva-Dry, however, on the size of the spaces that these devices should be used for. We would not recommend either the E-333 or the E-500 for any space larger than about 50 square feet. Either device, in our opinion, is simply not powerful enough to dehumidify any space larger than approximately 50 square feet. Final Thoughts Eva-Dry specifies that the E-500 can be used in spaces as large as 500 cubic feet and that the E-333 can be used in spaces as large as 333 cubic feet. While we don’t disagree that you could use these devices in spaces as large as 333 and 500 cubic feet, our recommendation is that you don’t. The E-500 and E-333 have a multitude of uses but dehumidifying any reasonably sized space (and in this case we consider 333 cubic feet to be a a “reasonably sized space”) isn’t one of them. Applications Update: Contrary to the statements we make below, the manufacturer does not give the “area of coverage” for either the E-333 or the E-500 in terms of square footage. Instead, it is given in terms of cubic feet – a volume. Thus, much of the discussion below in which we incorrectly refer to the E-333′s area of coverage as 333 square feet and the E-500′s area of coverage as 500 square feet does not apply. The E-333′s actual area of coverage is 333 cubic feet and the E-500′s actual area of coverage is 500 cubic feet. If you leave the Eva-dry rechargeable dehumidifier plugged in for a long time defeats the purpose of having a rechargeable dehumidifier and can slowly harm your dehumidifier.

Compare the E-333′s moisture removal rate of 4 to 6 ounces per 2 to 4 weeks to that of its primary competitor, the Eva-Dry E-500, which removes 6 to 8 ounces of moisture per 4 to 8 weeks. Thus, the E-500 removes about 50% more moisture than the E-333 but takes 100% as long to do so. So, the E-333 removes less moisture per recharge but removes moisture faster than the E-500. Note that despite the fact that the E-333 removes moisture faster than the E-500, it remove moisture slower than almost every other type of dehumidifier we’ve tested and reviewed. The E-333 is one of two different rechargeable moisture absorbers manufactured by Eva-Dry – the other being the slightly heavier duty E-500. Both units remove moisture from the ambient air by adsorption (adsorption, not absorption, is the technical term for this process). Inside the E-333 and E-500′s outer plastic shell is a silica gel which facilitates this adsorption. Once the silica gel reaches capacity (the point at which its saturated and can no longer remove any more moisture) it changes color from blue to pink. On the outside of the E-333 and E-500 is a small indicator window that shows the color of the silica gel so you’ll know when this happens (when it reaches capacity). When the desiccant (silica gel) reaches capacity you’ll need to recharge the device. This involves plugging it into a wall outlet. The electricity from the wall outlet will heat up the desiccant and liberate moisture from it. This acts to “recharge” the device. The recharge process takes about 8 to 10 hours for the E-333 and 10 to 12 hours for the E-500. Note that since the recharge process involves the liberation of moisture you’ll want to recharge the device outside or in a well ventilated indoor space such as a garage or utility room, not the room or space that you’re trying to dehumidify. Moisture Removal RateThe E-500 Eva-dry dehumidifier removes approximately 6 to 8 ounces of moisture from the air every 4 to 8 weeks. It has a higher moisture removal capacity than its counterpart the Eva-dry E-333, which removes about 4 to 6 ounces of moisture from the air after every 2 to 4 weeks.

AnswerThe renewable models ( E-250, E-333, and E-500, and Air-Dry system) use heat to allow the desiccant beads to swell and expel the moisture they have absorbed. AnswerDepending on the type of technology the dehumidifier uses will determine how much electricity the device will use.There are several ways that you can tell if your Eva-dry dehumidifier is working. First, you can assess the humidity levels in your home before by using a hygrometer. A hygrometer is a device that measures the amount of moisture or vapor in the air, confined spaces, or soil. If you are looking for a conveniently small dehumidifier, the Eva-dry E-333 is a great rechargeable cordless dehumidifier that will offer you maximum performance. FAQs How does the Eva-dry 333 work? The wire hanger doesn’t hold tight enough to be hung while going down the road. Ours fell off, the hook was still in place where it had been hung. The “Fill Door” on the E-333 popped open and all of the various sized beads went everywhere. Two trips out and we’re still finding beads rolling out from under stuff and we cleaned all we could see every morning for two weeks. The fill door should have been sealed permanently but isn’t. When they are fully saturated, the beads will turn a dark green color, which will help you know that you need to recharge the dehumidifier. Once the beads are fully saturated, you should charge the dehumidifier. Recharging
