Fixed Dehumidifier

Master the humidity levels in your buildings with a professional fixed dehumidifier

Controlling humidity in a permanent structure cannot rely on temporary solutions; it requires a robust installation capable of continuous operation without human intervention. At Climatik, we assist managers of indoor swimming pools, sports complexes, and precision industries in implementing a perfectly sized fixed dehumidifier. With our expertise in HVAC engineering, our engineers guide you towards solutions from the leading European manufacturers, ensuring total protection of your infrastructure against corrosion and damage related to condensation.

Understanding the three types of fixed dehumidifier installations

Wall-mounted dehumidifier (or console): apparent efficiency The wall-mounted fixed dehumidifier is the go-to solution for spaces where aesthetics and ease of installation are paramount. Its major advantage lies in its direct installation on a wall, thus freeing up floor space. Equipped with a frequently stylish and corrosion-resistant casing, it draws in humid air from the room and discharges dry, slightly warmed air. This is the ideal option for spas, indoor jacuzzis, or small changing rooms where humidity control needs to be immediate and visible. The minor drawback is the presence of the unit within the room's volume, but current high-end models boast extremely low noise levels to avoid disturbing occupants' comfort.

Recessed dehumidifier (through-the-wall): technical discretion The recessed model represents the perfect compromise between performance and discretion. Its major advantage is that the technical unit is installed in an adjacent room or a technical room behind the partition. Only two grilles (intake and discharge) are visible in the room to be treated. This configuration is particularly popular for private pools or showrooms where the desire is to conceal the machine while maintaining massive water extraction. The available capacities allow for treating large volumes without cluttering the architectural space, while also facilitating maintenance operations that take place outside the swimming or working area.

Ducted dehumidifier: centralized treatment for large volumes The ducted fixed dehumidifier combines industrial power with total invisibility. Unlike wall-mounted models, the unit is installed in a remote technical room, and air is distributed via a duct network concealed in ceilings or floors. This configuration is the preferred solution for large public swimming pools, logistics warehouses, or pharmaceutical production sites. It allows for the distribution of dry air over large glass surfaces to prevent any fogging. The essential aspect to remember is the need for a preliminary aerodynamic study to balance airflow rates and ensure that every corner of the building benefits from controlled humidity, without creating unpleasant drafts.

Which configuration for your infrastructure?

For a residential pool or hotel spa, opt for a wall-mounted or recessed dehumidifier. These devices are specifically treated against the chemical aggressions of chlorine or salt and help maintain a humidity level between 55% and 65%, thus preventing a stuffy feeling and the deterioration of paints and woodwork.

For a museum, library, or storage cellar, the recessed or ducted model is the most relevant choice. You benefit from extremely precise humidity control (electronic precision hygrostat) while protecting sensitive artworks or products from compressor noise and direct heat.

For sports complexes or agri-food factories, opt for ducted dehumidification units. They offer the possibility of integrating a hot water coil to heat the air simultaneously, or adding fresh air intake to comply with ventilation standards for public buildings, while recovering heat from the extracted air.

Management modes: autonomous regulation or BMS?

Beyond extraction capacity, the intelligence of your fixed dehumidifier determines its profitability. Autonomous regulation via a remote hygrostat is perfect for simple installations where the device alone manages its operating cycles according to the programmed threshold.

For industrial or tertiary sites, integration into a Building Management System (BMS) is essential. It allows for remote monitoring of humidity levels, receiving alerts in case of malfunction, and optimizing operating periods based on energy tariffs.

Climatik's expertise for your fixed dehumidification

At Climatik, we don't just supply equipment: we carry out a complete water balance assessment of your premises. A poorly calculated fixed dehumidifier will not prevent condensation on cold spots, which will accelerate the corrosion of your building's metal structures.

Our technical team supports you in the choice of materials (stainless steel, epoxy) and heat recovery options to transform extracted moisture into a free heating source for your air or pool water. All our fixed dehumidifiers comply with the strictest hygiene and safety standards, with technical support available for commissioning throughout France.
