Manage Air Flow
- SIMPLE OPERATION OVERVIEW
The RAM Whole Boat Installed Dehumidifier Is Very Simple To Operate
RAM Unit Draws Moist Inside Air In Through A Low Point In The Boat
- It removes up to 30% Relative Humidity every pass and returns dry air to interior spaces
- In a high humidity environment, it will remove up to 70 pounds of water a day
- Return moist air is ducted to a central location for dehumidification
- Then the dry supply air is ducted to multiple cabins, areas, and staterooms
- This Cycle Continues Automatically Lowering Cabin Humidity Until The Programmed Set Point is Reached
- SPECIFIC YACHT EQUIPMENT RECOMMENDTIONS
- Boats up to 70’ or (21 meters) generally require one RAM unit
- Boats over 70’ or (21+ meters), RAM generally recommends installing two units on board
- Large motor yachts 90’+ or (30+ meters) require a review inspection to determine how many dehumidifier units are needed
- UNIQUE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN AN AIR CONDITIONER & DEHUMIDIFIER
Why Your Yacht Air Conditioner Won’t Eliminate Your Mold Problems
Reducing Temperature & Moisture Requires Two Different Solutions
- Air Conditioner is designed to reduce air TEMPERATURE
- RAM is NOT made to reduce the temperature of air
- RAM is made to REDUCE the MOISTURE in the air
- RAM is air cooled not water cooled
RAM Dehumidifier Controls Yacht Humidity At The 40-50% Level:
- RAM system reduces yacht humidity to the 40 to 50% range
- The 40-50 % humidity range is NOT achievable by yacht air conditioners
- RAM unit has very thick evaporator plates to maximize moist air contact time
- RAM can remove as much as 70 pounds of water out of the air in a day
- RAM unit doesn’t distribute moist air
- RAM distributes dry air
- RAM lowers the humidity level by over 30%, in one pass of the moist air through the unit
KEY POINT: Air conditioners can drop humidity down to approximately 55-65%. Hence, an air conditioner can’t achieve the recommended 40-50% humidity range to improve air quality.
- T0P 5 RAM DEHUMIDIFIER AIR QUALITY ADVANTAGES & BENEFITS
- Healthy Indoor Air Quality
- Reduced Moisture, Eliminates Mold
- VOCs Reduced Or Will Be Diminished
- Formaldehyde Is Reduced
- Fuel & Waste Smells Will Be Lessened
Special Note: A portable dehumidifier unit on a boat can drop 2-4% of the humidity per pass in a limited area. Therefore, portable units aren’t as effective for a whole boat solution.
- SMART AUTOMATIC HUMIDISTAT CONTROL
- Automatically Monitors And Regulates The Humidity Level
- Automatically turns the unit on or off
- Maintains cabin within 2% RH of programmed set point
- Recommended Relative Humidity programming is 45% – 50%
- Condensation line has a smart monitor system
- You set it and forget it, like your home or office air conditioner
It took away my watery eyes and runny nose, I was amazed. I am very pleased with the high-quality installation, performance and benefits of the RiteAire Marine™ Dehumidifier and would recommend it to any big boat owner.
