DBA Singapore | Ceiling Dehumidifiers & Humidity Control Solutions

Q: How quiet are ceiling dehumidifiers?

DBA UTC units run from about 39 dB(A) at 3 m for the UTC20 up to 50 dB(A) for the UTC120, thanks to shock-absorbing mounts and rubber vibration washers. Installed above a false ceiling with a flexible duct section, day-to-day noise is minimal.

Q: Where does the water go?

Every UTC has a built-in drain pump that lifts condensate up to 1.8 m with an integral check valve, so the unit isn't limited to gravity drainage. An upper U-trap blocks odours and an insulated flexible hose prevents sweating and vibration transfer.

Q: Can I control it from my phone?

Yes. Each unit pairs with the Tuya Smart app over 2.4 GHz WiFi for remote humidity control, and offers RS485 Modbus for BMS / building-automation integration on commercial projects.

Q: How often does it need maintenance?

Clean the washable mesh filter every two weeks, and have the coil and drain serviced yearly. Coastal homes or units above a kitchen should halve these intervals.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size dehumidifier do I need for an HDB flat?+

For a typical 4-room HDB flat of around 1000 sqft, a single DBA-UTC68 (68 L/day) ducted to the living and sleeping areas keeps the whole home below 60% RH. Smaller flats or single rooms suit the UTC20; larger landed homes step up to the UTC120. Not sure? Try the humidity calculator.
