HEVILLO 2000 Sq. Ft Dehumidifier Review

Are you looking for a low-cost dehumidifier for basements, bedrooms, and living rooms? The HEVILLO air purifier might be one of the farthest-reaching dehumidifiers for spacious areas.

With a maximum coverage area of 2,000 square feet, there’s hardly any space at home, at the office, or in dorms that this unit can’t leave as dry as a bone. Read our review of the HEVILLO and discover whether it lives up to the hype.

40 PPD in 2,000-Square-Foot Rooms

So, the HEVILLO can dehumidify space as large as 2,000 square feet, but how efficient is it? According to the company, this unit can drop the relative humidity levels of a room from 85% down to between 45% and 55% in 24 hours.

It has a 40-pint-per-day dehumidifying capacity at AHAM, making it one of the most efficient far-reaching dehumidifiers you can get your hands on. From basements to laundry rooms and even crawl spaces, the HEVILLO serves to drop humidity levels to more livable conditions in just a day of work.

Built for Modern Homes

The HEVILLO was built with modernity and convenience in mind. It’s has a sleek, all-white outer shell with a gray top-facing panel and control board, making it blend seamlessly into any minimalistic home or apartment.

At the bottom, you’ll find 360-degree casters that allow it to roll effortlessly from room to room, though due to its under-30-pound build, you could just as easily pick the HEVILLO up by the grooved side handles and transport it from floor to floor.

This dehumidifier offers two operating speeds—Low and High. On its lower setting, it generates a hardly-audible 40-dBA buzz that doesn’t disrupt sleep quality as it rids the air of excess moisture.

Accurate Digital Humidity Readout

The digital readout on the top-right corner of the gray top-facing panel shows the relative humidity level of a room. You can use this gauge to determine which of the two fan speeds to activate, as well as program the 1-24-hour timer.

Unfortunately, your only means of automatically turning the HEVILLO off is by toying with the programmable timer. This dehumidifier doesn’t have moisture sensors that shut the motor on and off on its own accord, so overly dehumidifying a room is a real, albeit tiny, risk.

Auto-Defrost

Like any good large-room dehumidifier, the HEVILLO comes with an auto-defrost function that rids the chilled coils of chips of ice when needed. This is a necessary feature for those living in low-temperature climates and who use a dehumidifier to regulate and maintain tolerable relative humidity levels. According to HEVILLO, this feature ensures that the dehumidifier will work optimally in rooms as cold as 41 degrees.

Auto-Shutoff or Continuous Drain Port

To get rid of re-condensed moisture, the HEVILLO offers two options: manually emptying the 0.66-gallon reservoir or plugging in a continuous drain hose (included in the box).

The HEVILLO drain port relies on gravity for continuous outflow of water, so make sure you place the unit higher or at the same level as a sink, window, or potted plant.

Verdict: Does the HEVILLO Live Up to the Hype?

It goes without saying that the HEVILLO is definitely a top-performing dehumidifier. Although it doesn’t come with premium features (drain pump and programmable humidity levels), it certainly meets any expectations large homeowners would have from a dehumidifier.
