Abstract
A dehumidifier includes a body having an inlet for suctioning air and an outlet for discharging air; a compressor, disposed at the body, for compressing a refrigerant; a condenser for condensing the refrigerant compressed from the compressor; an expander for expanding the refrigerant condensed from the condenser; an evaporator, disposed at upstream of the condenser according to the flow direction of air, for evaporating the refrigerant expanded from the expander; a condensate water tank to store condensate water condensed from the evaporator; and a condensate water pipe, connected to the condensate water tank, for flowing the condensate water to be heat-exchanged with the refrigerant compressed from the compressor.
