Dehumidifier Installation

Effective humidity control supports product quality, operational reliability and a safe working environment. Dehumidifiers must be installed correctly to perform at their full capability, especially in industrial settings where airflow, temperature, moisture load and process targets vary between applications. At Newsome, we specialise in delivering well-designed and correctly installed dehumidification systems that support stable conditions across a wide range of sectors. Our team combines engineering knowledge, strong product insight and practical experience built over many years.

We work closely with SEIBU GIKEN DST AB, supplying and installing their full range of desiccant dehumidifiers across the UK. This relationship allows us to offer reliable equipment supported by installation expertise that ensures each system is placed, configured and commissioned to meet the specific requirements of the site. With nationwide coverage, regional account managers and dedicated service teams, we provide support throughout the UK from initial consultation through to long-term maintenance.

    Our Experience in Industrial Dehumidification

    Here at Newsome, we have years of experience working with industrial humidity control. Our background covers air handling, process cooling, heating and environmental management, which gives us a detailed understanding of how dehumidifiers interact with surrounding systems. This experience is valuable during the planning stage, where even small adjustments to airflow, ducting routes or heat recovery options can improve performance and energy use. We have supported projects in manufacturing plants, food facilities, pharmaceutical sites, warehousing, research centres and specialist production environments. Many of these projects require detailed planning and accurate dew point or humidity targets. By combining practical site knowledge with strong engineering capability, we ensure that each installation is completed with a focus on reliability, long-term performance and safe operation.

    When you choose Newsome for dehumidifier installation, you receive full support from the initial survey through to commissioning. Our process is clear, structured and designed to provide the right solution for your application.

    Site Survey and Assessment
    Our engineers carry out a detailed site survey to understand the operational requirements, environmental conditions and space available. This includes:

    • Airflow requirements
    • Moisture load calculations
    • Temperature conditions
    • Ventilation and air change rates
    • Placement options for the dehumidifier
    • Electrical supply and access routes
    • Integration with existing air handling units

    This assessment ensures we recommend the right product and installation method.

    Professional Installation

    Our installation engineers work to high standards to ensure the system is positioned correctly, connected safely and prepared for commissioning. This includes mechanical installation, electrical work, ducting, insulation and all associated components required for full operation. We also consider long-term service access at the installation stage, helping future maintenance tasks to be completed quickly and safely.

    Commissioning and Performance Verification

    Once the installation is complete, we carry out performance checks to confirm that the system meets the required operating parameters. Commissioning includes:

    • Air volume tests
    • Control system configuration
    • Reactivation heater checks
    • Filter checks
    • Rotor operation verification
    • Capacity testing

    We also train onsite personnel in basic operation and monitoring, so staff feel confident using the equipment from day one.

    System Design and Product Selection

    We design each system around the specific needs of your process or environment. By working closely with DST, we can configure equipment under either the Recusorb or Consorb principle, depending on moisture load, temperature and target dew point.

    Our design stage includes:

    • Airflow planning
    • Duct routing
    • Heat recovery options
    • Reactivation method selection
    • Control strategy
    • Placement for ease of maintenance
    • Energy management considerations

    This approach ensures your dehumidifier performs efficiently and consistently once in operation.

    Installing DST Dehumidifiers: What We Offer

    We install the full range of DST systems, from compact single-phase units to large industrial models. Each type requires different considerations, and our engineers are trained to install them all correctly.

    Flexisorb (RF and CF) Installation
    Flexisorb units are often used in process environments where low dew points and reliable moisture removal are required. We ensure the correct airflow and reactivation strategy is in place and that the system is positioned to achieve stable conditions.

    RLZ and CZ Series Installation
    These large industrial units often support chemical, pharmaceutical and food processing environments. Their installation requires careful planning around ducting, heat recovery, service access and control integration. Our team handles these requirements with precision.

    R and RL Series Installation
    These mid-range units are often installed in storage areas, cold environments, clean rooms or pneumatic conveying systems. We ensure correct positioning, safe electrical connection and effective airflow routing.

    Flex Industrial Drying Module Installation
    Flex modules require integration with RLZ systems. We ensure that cooling, heating or filtration modules are connected correctly and that system airflow remains balanced.

    DC and DR Series Installation
    These compact stainless-steel units are often used for temporary control, flood recovery, laboratories and smaller production applications. We ensure safe installation, correct humidistat connection and reliable operation from first use.

    Integrating Dehumidifiers with Existing Systems
    Many facilities already have ventilation, extraction or air handling systems in place. We frequently install dehumidifiers that integrate directly into these systems. Our work includes:

    • Ducting connections
    • Linking into existing AHUs
    • Control integration with BMS
    • Heat recovery connections
    • Balancing airflow across zones

    This approach ensures the dehumidifier works efficiently alongside other environmental systems.

    Long-Term Support After Installation

    Correct installation is the first step to reliable humidity control. The second step is ongoing care. We provide a full maintenance and servicing programme that includes:

    • Regular inspections
    • Filter changes
    • Rotor condition checks
    • Heater checks
    • Airflow verification
    • Performance reporting

    Our engineers visit sites across the UK to keep systems running as expected throughout the year.
