Dry-O-Tron LD/LEEDeR

In large pools, traditional dehumidifiers require a large refrigerant charge that is not just expensive but also leads to system migration challenges that can impact compressor reliability. The Dry-O-Tron LD/LEEDeR overcomes both of these issues through the use of a water/glycol mix as a secondary heat exchange fluid. This system also provides superior humidity control, exceptional reliability and lower operating costs, with as little as 1/6 the traditional refrigerant charge.

This unit is ideal for applications requiring from 110 to 765 lbs per hour of moisture removal or 6,000 CFM to 64,000 CFM of air handling. It is also designed to integrate with the Paddock Evacuator chloramine removal system.
