The Eva Dry 500 is the ultimate energy efficient dehumidifier because it does not require any electrical power to operate. In this article, we will review the Eva Dry 500 functions and features to determine if it’s a recommended dehumidifier for home use.
Eva Dry 500 Dehumidifier
We all know that moisture and humidity can be very damaging to your home and its valuable contents. In fact, mold can grow on anything where there is food such as on cotton, linen, wood, and paper. This is where the Eva Dry 500 can make a difference.
The Eva Dry 500 has been designed to remove moisture in enclosed areas such as closets. Simply place the unit in a closet (no need for an electrical outlet) and it will begin absorbing moisture immediately.
This little energy efficient dehumidifier is completely renewable. The Eva Dry 500 contains special crystals that turn from blue to pink to indicate moisture has been absorbed and the unit should be recharged (or “renewed”). Simply connect the unit’s hidden plug to an outlet in a well ventilated area (in a bathroom with a ventilation fan for example) for around 12-14 hours. The unit’s built-in heater will warm the crystals allowing them to expand and release the absorbed moisture. At that point, the crystals will change from pink back to blue.
The Eva Dry 500 crystals are expected to last for up to 10 years. Plus, the Eva Dry company offers a 5-year limited warranty on all their EDV500 models.
This 100% wireless energy efficient dehumidifier is environmentally safe. There are no liquids or gels to spill or to buy and the Eva Dry 500 is completely silent when it’s operating.
Here are a few comments from buyers:
“What’s really neat about these is the technology. I love that it’s renewable and easy to use, and I feel a lot better since it’s in an enclosed case; I no longer have to worry about pet poisoning or toxicity like I have in the past with those white pellets that were exposed to everyone and everything to possibly touch (or eat!). This is a much better system, and I love that it’s easy to use and creates no mess or waste.”
“I was surprisingly pleased with the Eva Dry mini dehumidifier. I hang mine just out outside our guinea pig’s cage and it absorbs excess moisture quite effectively, keeping their food and cage area from getting too humid.”
“Only reason for not giving this product a 5 star is that as stated in other posts, the recharge process gets the unit very hot and it doesn’t always sit well in an outlet without support. I too had one unit fall, and was fortunate the case stayed intact but the little beads could make for a real mess if the unit broke open!”
“I have this product in my shower area. It is separate from the vanity. The unit seems to be taking in the extra moisture. My towels are dry and the walls aren’t wet.”
“I purchased three of these little dehumidifiers to try to control the dampness in my basement. They are amazing little powerhouses, and I highly recommend them. I simply place a unit in an inconspicuous place in the corner of the room and leave it alone. When the crystals turn light pink (which is very obvious and usually takes about 3 weeks), I plug it into the outlet overnight to recharge. The unit is a tiny bit larger than I originally envisioned, but that works well because it can absorb more water.”
