I totally agree with you. I have had mine for a few years now for my patio doors which are just doors that open up into the back garden. It fills up with liquid but the condensation is always there and the water gathers along the metal strip along the threshold, sometimes in puddles!

Thanks for the video Charlie. We used to use the old fashioned tray and silica gel type crystal sets for our house, which worked well, but always looked manky as they filled up. In the end, we opted for an E-Bac dehumidifier which has performed really well for over five years now. We have a small conservatory which we use to dry our washing when the weather is bad outside. With the E-Bac running in the room, we get no further moisture build up, and the washing dries really well. Sometimes, you just cant beat opening a window or two to quickly get rid of moisture build up (in bathrooms and when doing a lot of cooking).

Check out this video Thomas for a more comprehensive discussion of the issues with condensation kzread.info/dash/bejne/hn14xI-plLLUiLA.html

The humidifier I ended up purchasing is made by electriQ. It’s quite sophisticated in as much as it has varied options for display and function including drying clothes which I must say is very impressive. It also has an ultra violet option which is supposed to kill viruses. Hard to assess the effectiveness of that. We keep ours on the landing and during the winter months and it’s going quite a lot. It’s be very noticeable in the reduction of the condensation issues had previously. I believe there are various options on tank volume and the size of House it copes with I must say we are astonished just how much water it pulls from the air. Very pleased with the unit and this is its second winter.

Warm room with high humidity against a cold window will create condensation. “Single glaze windows”

I use plain table salt in little bowls , over winter in my caravan , does extract quite a bit of water and costs virtually nothing . For a house a PIV unit is possibly the best solution.

Trying to hold back condensation on a property with single glazing is like trying to hold back the tide using a shovel. You need to be running dehumidifiers 24/7. I watched this review prior to purchasing 5 of the Unibond 360s myself. In my experience, they are excellent. For the past few years I've been running two small (1.5ltr capacity) thermo-electric Peltier technology "dehumidifiers" per large window in the lounge and also in the main bedroom of my bungalow, and a smaller one (1ltr capacity) on a tiny window. Brilliant technology, but with the cost of electricity these days ... I decided to seek out alternative ideas.The Unibonds will see me through until we eventually get the promised ultra cheap energy from renewables.Any. Day. Now.🤣

Thanks for the review. You save me to buy this product. :)

In Denmark, all newer houses have vaporbarrier, on the warm side of the insulation. That in it self is ok and prevent moisture getting into the insulation and walls, but... The problem with vaporbarriers and airtight houses, yes the new houses in Denmark are pressuretested, even the electrical outlets are airtights, is that even the slightest moisture condensates on cold surfaces, to come around that, something that circulates the air and dehumidifies it is a must, in Denmark a system called Genvex is very popular. But when people set up vapor barriers without a proper circulation system, airway illness appears, heavier condensation etc. I live in a 118 year old house, it have no vaporbarriers at all and theres a slight draft on the addict, and thats only a good thing, because after 118 years the wood is as healthy as day 1. Another problem with airtight houses is that you cant start your extractor hood without opening a window due to the vacuum or you cant open your windows after you started your extractor hood or you cant get a stove to fire properly. because theres to little oxygen.

The back of the one in your kids room was too close to the wooden beam, there needs to be a decent amount of space all around a dehumidifier so the airflow doesn't get impeded.

Thanks for your honesty Charlie !!!

I took mine and moved it from the windowsill to ontop of my cupboard, its no where near a wall and has airflow on both sides small room and still same issue with the windows....after 2 weeks of leaving it in the new place. These work ok. But they are not great but for £10 you get what you paid for. Id say these are fantastic for bathrooms which dont have a window and only an extractor fan. Which is where i plan to use this but id suggest an electric based product for clearing windows and not this.

I had an electric dehumidifier that I inherited, it used to pull about a litre a day out of the air. That’s a lot compared to what collects in one of these. I’d get another if they weren’t so expensive.

Charlie, you have just come up with the idea of you doing a video installing Secondary Glazing! I know nothing about the magnetic version, but in the listed building we had a neighbour installed the sliding panes which were brilliant. They are actually even better than triple glazed windows for sound insulation. Your problems would be solved and we will have the advantage of learning through you :-D

Thanks for this review. I have double glazed windows and suffer terribly with condensation (we live in a block of flats) I've tried everything. I may try one of these incase i have different results (as I'm double) but thank you for being honest.

Hi, we need to get something in the loft as we have too much moist in. What would you put in the loft for this? Without having to change the tiles etc. Thanks

The makers don’t claim that this product will eliminate condensation. If you have a persistent humidity problem the most effective way to tackle it is to use a powered dehumidifier that has a water extraction rate in keeping with the size of your home. The Unibond Aero 360 should only be considered as a secondary measure in your case.

They are great for smaller spaces, we have two in our static caravan over winter and I would rather the water collected in this unit than was absorbed into the van furniture.

The windows are the dehumidifiers. All that moisture is hitting the cold window and turning to water. The windows surface area are bigger than the dehumidifier. So it’s not surprising it’s not stopping condensation on the windows. Especially in Winter. I say this as I had the exact same experience with my 360. That said, the car cabin flooded last year and I popped the 360 in and it helped dry out the interior. If a passive dehumidifier is what you want then it’s design it pretty good.

Works for me. (I use the similar B&Q version) I put in on the floor in my bedroom bay window. I use one in a built-in cupboard under my eaves as well and it collects a bucket of water in there, stops mould on the walls. You do have to do all the other remedies such as opening windows after a shower, no washing on radiators etc, you can't just expect that little thing to handle it all by itself.

I live in an old cottage in the UK with condensation issues. I tried these a number of years ago and had the exact same result. I ended up buying dehumidifiers. These are capable of removing tens of litres per day. We can get a litre or more each day in each dehumidifier.

Hi great video.. Condensation prob in my house with double glaze windows. We open windows daily to air the rooms that's all fine. The prob starts at night in bed the windows fog up over night and are soaking wet the next day. Bought uni bond 360 looks like they will not do the job. I've tried use salt and other ideas nothing has helped. Did u ever get the window condensation solved or stopped

Heating, ventilation, and double glazed windows are my tips. In bedrooms as someone sleeps they breathe out moisture and it condensates on the cold window. Moisture will always condensate on the coldest part of a window. It was a big ask to get those moisture traps to work in your situation. If you heat, ventilate and have double glazing then a good quality electric dehumidifier should help but might not eliminate window condensation completely and especially on very cold nights. The space between the curtains and the window needs heated up. How about a curtain fan heater? You would need one on each window though!

The problem with this kind of kits is that they do not circulate the air. They do remove moisture from the air near them, but then cold spots in the house, like windows, actually compete with the devices because they act like dehumidifiers themselves by condensing moisture into water droplets.

There is not one solution for every property. Using hygrometers will give you a clear indication as to the temperature and RH levels. Trickle vents supply nice clean air to keep you healthy....every property needs fresh air. It's about balance..with new energy efficient sites mvhr is used to extract the moisture from the bathrooms and kitchens and supply fresh air to the lounge and bedrooms. No trickle vents will be on the windows as there is an alternative. Sometimes trickle vents are not enough..its about collating the detail using the said and going from there. The data logger is great as it states the facts. I use it to record every six hours over two weeks, leaving the data logger in the room of concern. We then look at the activity and act accordingly.

Thanks Nicky.

We have no trickle vents with exception of my daughter's room where I installed a Velux window that has a vent. We have an Envirovent Silent 100 fan in the bathroom - but the bathroom isn't a massive contributor because we have a window in the shower that's always open, removing almost all condensation within minutes of the last shower (though I guess it's still in the air even though the room has dried out!). The primary source is probably boiling stuff in the kitchen, where we have an extractor with reasonably sized (125mm dia) ducting going directly outside. My other half keeps forgetting to turn it on though!

Yes, Shantanu. The only thing this will dehumidify is a dolls house, and it will struggle at that. This is the video you need to watch kzread.info/dash/bejne/hn14xI-plLLUiLA.html and for a total solution, take a look at Nuaire PIVs

Have you looked at a PIV unit (Positive Input Ventilation). I had a big problem with condensation streaming, damp, mould. Fitted a Nuaire PIV unit and it literally cured the problem overnight. Also replaces your house with fresh air each day. Check them out.

Yes, this was my update to this vid kzread.info/dash/bejne/hn14xI-plLLUiLA.html There's a lot of love for PIVs in the comments. 👏👌

Do dehumifers and air purfier both kill mold spores and mold I have mold in my bedroom and I use dehumifers and I have plug in air purfier also do they both work and are they both worth using

No, you'll stop new mould forming if with the dehumidifier you can get your humidity levels below 60%. Check out this video where I go into more detail kzread.info/dash/bejne/hn14xI-plLLUiLA.html but the existing mould will need treating with a mould killing agent. To prevent mould you also need to maximise air circulation. It typically forms on cold spots where you have bad air circulation (in wardrobes, behind cupboards or bedside tables) so if you can move those away from the wall, and insulate your walls to remove the cold spots. Finally a PIV would be great to circulate the air in your house. It's a fan you install in the ceiling which forces air into the house from your attic space. Everyone loves them over here but I'm not sure you have them in the US?

Did you find a good solution to remove moisture and get the condensation off the windows.

I was about to buy one of these to see if it helped our condensation problem, but glad I watched your video first so won’t be buying one now. Going by reviews on Amazon they work pretty well which would have made me buy one.

As the window is colder, the condensation will go there. When theres alot on moisture in the air in my garage, my cast iron weight plates are wet (its vented well also)

Yes but it takes time to work it does clear my windows but you still breeth in the night so leave the room for a while then check

Just bought one for my very small bedsit where condensation is such a problem it causes the carpet around the front door to become wet and the plaster around the windows to become wet. It seems to work, I didn’t actually place it on the window sill as the user instructions say to leave it at least 10 cm from the wall. I’m am a bit worried , having read the saftey data sheet which says to avoid breathing the dust,about the long term effects of calcium chloride in a home which must have poor ventilation. I never dry cloaths indoors, cooking is probably the main source of moisture. Anyone else heard of health problems from having calcium chloride moisture traps in the home?

Thank you really much

Your cold windows are doing a better job at getting the Moisture then the Aero 360 lol I just got one to put in my van seeing your vidoe makes me think it ant going to work

Mine all work....I guess i have way less moisture...Some homes might need more in one room or an electric one perhaps, but for now, mines are doing great. I do agree the replacement tabs are a bit expensive though.

Mine got spilt by the cats and now I have a greasy and slippery floor, it's a wooden floor and I don't know what to use to clean it

Thanks 😊

You're welcome Sandra. This one is much better though kzread.info/dash/bejne/hn14xI-plLLUiLA.html

Hi, judging from your accent you live in the UK. In your climate you will always get moisture on your windows if you have a single glass window. When the air hits your glass it has a sudden change in temperature and will therefore reach its "dew point". To avoid this, you need to install mechanical ventilation...

this product works for me but the extent of my condensation was much less to begin with... basically got triple glazing (which is awesome) but the windows are set in old Aluminium window frames which don't have a thermal break.... so I get condensation on the frames particularly if the bedroom door is shut... this product eliminated the issue even with the shut bedroom doors as it essentially is sucking out the moisture we put into the room through breathing.

Ive tried these absorber types and they seem to collect a lot of water. But didn't cure the problem on windows etc... so I recently bought a proper dehumidifier for less than £100. and it is great, it seems to collect about a litre + of water every day... god knows where it comes from. job done. don't waste your money on these cheap absorber types.

I know I’m 5 years late to the party and don’t know if you still having the same problem but could you try the best plant for dehumidifier and compare plan v product.
