Dehumidifier size

12 years ago

Hello,

I have a 1,100 sq ft condo with large windows facing water. If weather forecast is right, I am facing a long hot humid summer. Any suggestions as to the dehumidifier size? Will 20-pint be sufficient? I travel for work regularly, so might have to keep the dehumidifier on for 2 days straight - is it safe?

Thanks!

Most dehumidifier manufacturers would provide the square footage each model is designed for.
