OVERVIEW

Struggling with Constant Condensation? This 190 Pint Commercial Dehumidifier with Drain Hose Handles Heavy Moisture and Keeps Humidity in Check

If you’re dealing with constant humidity—an indoor pool, spa, health club, or any space that never really dries out—you already know the truth. Small units don’t keep up. Buckets fill too fast. And once humidity creeps past 60%, problems start stacking up quickly.

The PD220-D from Ebac USA is a commercial dehumidifier with drain hose designed for exactly these environments. It’s built to handle extreme, continuous moisture loads without babysitting, which is what most commercial spaces actually need.

Indoor pools are a good example. A modest pool with 400–450 square feet of water surface can easily generate well over 150 pints of moisture per day under normal use. That’s why a unit in the ~190-pint range is commonly specified. It gives you breathing room on busy days, warm water conditions, and seasonal humidity spikes without running flat out all the time. The result? More stable humidity, fewer wet surfaces, and far less condensation on windows, walls, and ceilings.

Spas and therapy pools push things even harder. Warm water, jets, and long operating hours drive nonstop evaporation. Residential equipment just can’t cope. This is where high-capacity commercial dehumidifiers earn their keep—processing large volumes of damp air hour after hour while keeping relative humidity in the recommended 55–60% range for comfort and hygiene.

The gravity drain setup is a big part of why this works so well in real facilities. Instead of relying on a tank or a pump that can clog or fail, condensate flows continuously through a drain hose to a floor drain or sump. No alarms. No staff emptying buckets. Fewer moving parts, fewer headaches. Honestly, once you’ve used gravity drain in a commercial space, it’s hard to go back.

Gyms and health clubs benefit too. Heavy occupancy, sweating, showers, and wet floors all add latent moisture that cooling systems alone don’t remove efficiently. A properly sized unit like the PD220-D helps keep humidity in that 40–55% sweet spot—comfortable for members, safer for floors, mirrors, metal equipment, and electronics.

In practice, this unit is usually installed right in the pool room or a nearby mechanical space, free-standing or ducted, running continuously and quietly doing its job. No drama. Just controlled air, protected buildings, and spaces that feel better the moment you walk in.

SPECIFICATIONS

FEATURES

• 190-Pint-Per-Day Moisture Removal for Extreme Humidity
  Designed to extract up to 190 pints per day, this unit is sized for indoor pools, spas, gyms, and other high-moisture environments where residential equipment simply can’t keep up.
  
  
• High Airflow Coverage for Large Volumes
  Rated for an effective volume of over 21,000 cubic feet, the PD220-D processes large amounts of damp air efficiently, helping maintain stable relative humidity during peak use.
  
  
• Continuous Gravity Drain for Hands-Off Operation
  Built to run nonstop using a drain hose connection, allowing condensate to flow directly to a floor drain or sump—no buckets to empty, no pumps to fail, and no staff intervention required.
  
  
• Adjustable Digital Humidistat with Remote Option
  Fine-tune humidity levels using the onboard digital control, or connect a remote humidistat for more precise sensing in large or segmented spaces like pool rooms and locker areas.
  
  
• Reverse-Cycle Defrost for Reliable Low-Temperature Performance
  Ebac’s temperature-sensitive reverse-cycle defrost system automatically clears frost from the coils, keeping the unit effective even in cooler pool rooms or mechanical spaces.
  
  
• Quiet Two-Speed Fan for Comfort-Focused Spaces
  A quiet, two-speed fan allows flexible operation—strong airflow when humidity spikes, lower noise when maintaining set levels in guest-facing areas.
  
  
• Commercial-Grade Construction Built to Last
  Housed in a heavy-gauge steel cabinet with epoxy-coated, fully enclosed coils and an easy-change cartridge air filter, this unit is made for long service life in corrosive, high-humidity environments.
