Heating the air, or lowering the dew-point temperature, creates a pressure differential (and a resulting concentration gradient); this causes moisture to diffuse from the plastic to the air.

As the encompassing air gets dried, the dew-point is brought down and the temperature that is maintained on the cool evaporator loop likewise is lowered.

Harriman (3) has pointed out that rather than measuring surface RH conditions, it may be more practical to check the dew-point temperature of the indoor air by measuring the indoor air temperature and RH and determining the corresponding dew-point conditions from a psychrometric chart or available software program.

It doesn't fall, but rather forms on an exposed surface when that surface becomes colder than the dew-point temperature, which depends on the humidity.

Because belt drives invariably undergo distortion, slippage occurs, causing rotation speed, and thus dew-point performance, to vary from target settings.
