You may notice on the nutritional labels of the foods you buy that the percent daily values are based on a 2,000 calorie diet -- 2,000 calories is a rough average of what people eat in a day. But your body might need more or less than 2,000. Height, weight, gender, age and activity level all affect your caloric needs.
How a dehumidifier works. Dehumidifiers work in one of two waysâby refrigeration (cooling air to remove moisture using similar technology to a refrigerator) or by absorption/adsorption (where moisture is absorbed into or adsorbed onto a drying material and then removed). We'll look at each of these in turn.
When talking about size, we mean how much moisture the dehumidifier will remove from the air. That is measured in pints. Most companies that make dehumidifiers offer a few different sizes. For instance, Frigidaire offers a 30 pint dehumidifier, a 50 pint dehumidifier and a 70 pint dehumidifier. A dehumidifier used in a very large space or a very damp space needs to be larger than one used in a small space that is not very damp.
