Anden A130 Dehumidifier for Mid-Size Flower and Drying Rooms
Lights go out, transpiration keeps going, and a mid-size flower room can climb several RH points within the hour. The Anden A130 is a commercial-grade refrigerant dehumidifier built for that load, removing 130 pints per day at 80°F and 60% RH. It runs on a standard 120V circuit, drawing 8.3 amps and 920 watts under rated conditions. Efficiency comes in at 2.8 L/kWh, about 5.9 pints of water for every kilowatt-hour on the meter. Noise is rated at 50 dBA, low enough to share a room with a crew on trim or defoliation day. The cabinet measures 19-1/2 x 18-3/4 x 30-1/16 inches and weighs 113 lb, so plan on a proper hanging kit or a solid platform. Air enters and leaves through 10-inch collars, with a backdraft damper on the outlet side. A MERV 11 disposable filter sits ahead of a corrosion-resistant aluminum coil. Dehumidification works on inlet air between 50°F and 104°F, down to a 40°F dew point. Expect roughly 3,310 BTU/h of added heat in the space, which your cooling plan should cover.
Where a 130 Pint Dehumidifier Earns Its Keep
Drying rooms are a natural fit for this unit. Hang it high, run the fan between dehumidify cycles, and air keeps moving over hanging branches without fans blasting the flower. In a flower room, ducting lets it pull from one end and return dry air at the other. That evens out the damp pockets behind dense canopy. Greenhouse growers often park it in the corner that always runs wet, close to a drain and clear of irrigation spray. The onboard digital control holds a set point and stops dehumidifying once the room reaches it, then samples the air again. Pair it with the optional A77 remote, or any controller with a dry contact closure, to read humidity at canopy height. The control head swaps between top and front mounting, which helps when the unit hangs tight against a wall or beam. Weight is the trade-off here, since one person cannot safely lift it into a ceiling mount. Replace the filter once it turns gray, because a loaded filter cuts airflow and water removal at the same time. The drain fitting and tubing come in the box for a gravity run to a floor drain. The five-year warranty covers every part, refrigeration system included.
Key Features
- Quiet Commercial Operation: A 50 dBA rating keeps the unit workable in rooms where people prune, scout and harvest through the day.
- Ducted, Hung or Freestanding: Inlet and outlet collars take flex duct or hard pipe, and the outlet damper stops reverse airflow at idle.
- Canopy-Level Control Option: The onboard display sets RH directly, while the optional A77 remote or a dry-contact controller reads conditions where the plants are.
- MERV 11 Filtration: The disposable filter keeps dust, leaf litter and trim debris off the coil so capacity holds steady between changes.
- Corrosion-Resistant Coil: The aluminum coil stands up to the wet, nutrient-laden air a grow room or greenhouse produces every day.
- Insulated Cabinet: Half-inch EPS insulation lines the cabinet, cutting condensation on the shell and keeping running noise down.
- ETL Listed, Five-Year Warranty: The unit carries the Intertek ETL mark, and the warranty covers all parts including the refrigeration system.
