Built-in digital touch controller

Integrated controller on the front of the unit — set humidity target, monitor extraction, view system status, configure schedules. RS485 Modbus and WiFi standard on every unit. Intuitive interface designed for pool owners, not just engineers.

Modbus RTU + RS-485

Standard on every unit. Serial bus integration with BMS systems via Modbus protocol — typical for office, school and retail fit-outs where ventilation needs to coordinate with heating, lighting, and access control.

WiFi + Microwell app

WiFi standard on every DRY 400 Metal — connects to the Microwell mobile app for remote monitoring, humidity setpoint adjustment, schedule control, and alert notifications. Owner-friendly setup; engineer-level access for service technicians via separate login.

Eberle remote humidistat option

Optional EBERLE HYG6001 wired remote humidistat with built-in touch controller (£120 add-on), or HYG7001 with thermostat too (£140). Useful where the dehumidifier is wall-mounted high up but the user wants control at hand height. Hard-wired alternative to WiFi for installs without reliable WiFi coverage.

DRY EASY 300 wireless remote

Optional Microwell DRY EASY 300 wireless humidistat + thermostat (£345 add-on) with built-in touch controller, WiFi, and RS-485 Modbus. Battery-powered remote head — mount it anywhere in the pool hall. Most popular control upgrade for high-end residential and hotel scopes.

microSAFETY+ supervision

Microwell's continuous self-monitoring system — included as standard on every DRY pool dehumidifier. Tracks compressor health, fan operation, refrigerant pressure, defrost cycles, drain status. Attempts automatic corrective action on minor faults; flags error codes via the controller and app on more serious issues.

Defrost + low-temp operation

Operating range +9°C to +42°C. Active demand-controlled defrost — the unit recognises when ice forms on the evaporator and triggers a defrost cycle automatically. Important for pool halls that drop in temperature overnight or during low-occupancy periods. Performance maintained at 5°C/80% RH (~28 L/day extraction).

DRY contact + boiler control

Auxiliary DRY contact for external automation — turn off when pool is covered, run boost when occupied, interlock with pool cover position sensor. Boiler control output for the optional LPHW heating coil. PV-ready connection for solar-driven operation. All standard on every DRY 400 Metal.

DRY 400 Metal — anchor configuration

Up to 45 m² water surface. 48 L/day at 30°C/60% RH (78 L/day max at 35°C/80% RH). 600 m³/h airflow. 800 W average power. 1,900 W heat recovery. Aluminium casing (RAL9010 white standard). Wall-mounted on console. Single-phase 230V.

Casing options — Metal / Silver

Metal/Alu (this configuration) uses an aluminium casing — lighter, higher corrosion resistance, RAL9010 white standard. Silver variant uses stainless steel — premium finish, ideal for high-end residential pools where the unit is visible. Wave plastic option also available for budget-conscious installs.

Heating add-ons (LPHW or electric)

Optional heating coil to supplement the 1,900 W heat recovery. LPHW (Low Pressure Hot Water) 3.5 kW from boiler or heat pump — £228 unregulated, £442 with solenoid valve. Electric heating 2 kW — £490 add-on. Most domestic pools don't need this; commercial wellness installs often do.

Installation type — wall / floor / through-wall

Wall console (this configuration) — standard. Mobile floor stand with 4 wheels (£235) for non-fixed installs. Through-the-wall variant (DRY 400 Duct/TTW) for plant-room installs with grilles in the pool hall — cleaner aesthetic.

microLIGHT+ Pool Security upgrade

Upgrade from standard microLIGHT+ to Pool Security version (£140). Adds protective alerts when humidity strays outside healthy range — protects building fabric from condensation damage. Recommended for second-home or holiday-let pools where the owner is not on site daily.

Fresh air supply adapter

Optional galvanised duct adapter (Ø100 mm, 50 mm length) for fresh air connection — £35. Brings up to 30% nominal airflow as fresh outdoor air, preheated by the condenser. Useful for hotels and wellness centres where fresh air rates matter for bathing comfort.

Step down — DRY 300 (up to 30 m²)

For hot tubs, swim spas, plunge pools, or smaller domestic pools up to 30 m² water surface. 36 L/day extraction at typical pool conditions. 700 W average power. Same warranty, same control architecture, same corrosion protection. Quote on request — sized to project.

Step up — DRY 500 / 800 / 1200

DRY 500 covers up to 60 m² (medium pools); DRY 800 up to 80 m² (commercial wellness); DRY 1200 up to 120 m² (large commercial). DRY SIREN ceiling-mounted split unit also available for up to 120 m² — 360° air dispersion. All POA — sized to project at quote.

5-year compressor warranty

Microwell provides a 5-year compressor warranty as standard — the heart of the dehumidifier protected for the typical replacement cycle of pool equipment. Plus 3-year spare parts coverage and a lifetime warranty on the condensing tray. Backed by Microwell's 34 years of business experience and ISO 9001 / 14001 / 45001 accreditation.

Lifetime condensing tray

The condensing tray collects water as it condenses on the cold evaporator coil — the part most exposed to chlorinated water and aggressive pool chemistry. Microwell warrants this part for the lifetime of the unit. Underpinned by stainless steel / titanium construction in the most aggressive areas, and powder coating elsewhere.

Filter — annual check

Standard washable filter on the air intake. Annual visual check, wash with mild detergent if dust loading is visible. Optional upgraded F-class filter (£52) for installations where pool hall dust loading is high — gym areas, public pools, hotel lobbies. Field-replaceable in minutes via the front access panel.

GoldFin coil inspection

Annual visual inspection of the evaporator and condenser coils — confirm GoldFin epoxy coating intact, no debris obstructing fin spacing, no signs of zinc-coating damage on copper pipework. Wash with low-pressure water if visibly dirty. Don't use chlorinated cleaning agents — pool chemistry is already aggressive enough.

Condensate drain check

Quarterly visual check of condensate drain — confirm free-flowing, no standing water in the tray, trap maintained. Common failure mode is drain blockage by debris or biofilm — easy to spot, easy to clear. CleverBloom service plan includes drain inspection on every visit.

CleverBloom pool service plan

For domestic indoor pools, hotels, and commercial wellness clients, CleverBloom offers scheduled service contracts: annual filter check and clean, coil inspection, drain check, condensing tray inspection, microLIGHT+ calibration, BMS integration verification. Quoted per project based on pool size, access, and SLA requirements.
