Reliable Dehumidification for Living Rooms, Basements, and Laundry Drying
The Comedes Demecto 12 is suitable for living rooms, bedrooms, study rooms, and suitable basement areas with temperatures starting from 5 °C. The dehumidifier can also be used to support laundry drying. Thanks to its compact dimensions, castor wheels, and recessed handle, the device can be flexibly placed and moved within the room. The automatic defrost function protects the cooling system from icing and allows operation in a temperature range of 5 °C to 35 °C.
Functions can be easily adjusted via the clear control panel. Two built-in operating modes – including intelligent automatic mode and a function for laundry drying or continuous operation – allow for customized application. The integrated humidity display keeps you informed about current indoor air humidity.
Smooth-running castors, a practical recessed handle, a 24-hour timer, sleep mode, and a child lock round out the features of the Demecto 12.
Effective Mold Prevention Through Targeted Humidity Control
Mold spores generally require a relative humidity level consistently above 60% to grow. The Comedes Demecto 12 helps maintain room humidity at a healthy level (ideally between 40% and 50%), effectively depriving mold spores of the moisture needed to thrive.
Especially in cooler rooms, bedrooms, basements, or after drying laundry indoors, the room dehumidifier offers preventive protection against condensation forming on cold exterior walls, windows, and furniture. This sustainably prevents mold spots and musty odors from developing.

What is Required for Operation?
The Comedes Demecto 12 is supplied fully equipped for operation with a 2.0-liter water tank and power cable.
Depending on your individual application, the following options should be considered:
- Standard operation via water tank: As soon as the 2.0-liter tank is full, the device automatically turns off and signals that the water tank is full.
- Continuous operation (hose): For continuous drainage of condensation water, a suitable drainage hose can be connected to the integrated port. Water is drained via gravity flow.
- Continuous operation with elevation difference: If condensation cannot be drained via gravity flow, a suitable condensate pump is required depending on the installation setup.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What room sizes is the Comedes Demecto 12 suitable for?
The Comedes Demecto 12 is designed for active dehumidification of rooms up to 25 m² or approx. 62 m³ at a 2.3 m ceiling height. For keeping spaces dry, the device can be used in rooms up to 50 m².
How much power does the dehumidifier consume during operation?
The Comedes Demecto 12 has a rated power of max. 200 Watts. Since the unit does not continuously run at full capacity in automatic mode, here is a sample calculation: Assuming an average load of 75–80% (approx. 150–160 Watts) and 8 hours of daily runtime, power consumption is around 1.2–1.3 kWh/day.
How does the intelligent automatic mode work?
In automatic mode, the Demecto 12 automatically regulates the target indoor air humidity based on the room temperature.
Can the device be used in continuous operation?
Yes, condensation water can be continuously drained via the integrated hose connection, eliminating the need to manually empty the water tank.
Does the device turn off automatically when the water tank is full?
Yes, as soon as the 2.0-liter water tank is full, the device switches off automatically. This prevents further condensation water from being directed into the full tank.
Does the Comedes Demecto 12 help against mold?
Yes, the device effectively prevents mold growth and spread. By keeping relative humidity below the critical 60% threshold, the Demecto 12 deprives mold spores of the environment required to grow. Please note that pre-existing mold should always be thoroughly removed mechanically and its root cause addressed.
At what temperatures can the dehumidifier be used?
The operating temperature range is between 5 °C and 35 °C. The integrated automatic defrost function protects the cooling system from icing at lower ambient temperatures within this operating range.
