MeacoDry Arete One 6L Compact Dehumidifier / Air Purifier

The smart, quiet and compact MeacoDry Arete One 6L dehumidifier built for single rooms, shared houses and ideal also for student accommodation. The smallest in Meaco's range, this unit is made for homes where every inch of space matters but comfort still counts. Offering the same trusted Arete performance as the larger units, the 6L delivers strong dehumidification and air purification in one compact package.

Whether you’re in a small house share, a studio flat or a student rental, the Arete One 6L is designed for the realities of everyday living: constant laundry, busy bathrooms and condensation that appears fast.

Meaco's smallest dehumidifier brings calm and control back to busy spaces:

• Tackle damp from frequently used bathrooms
• Reduce moisture before mould has a chance to grow
• Prevent condensation on cold windows
• Dry laundry quickly and stop clothes smelling musty
• Improve air quality with a medical-grade H13 HEPA filter

Arete is designed in the UK and built for the British and Irish climates. It’s efficient, dependable and perfectly suited to student life, busy shared homes and single rooms that need a little extra help.

Big performance, compact footprint

Short on floor space? Dealing with damp in an already crowded room? This compact, ultra-quiet and efficient dehumidifier fits neatly into any space or onto a countertop.

Even with its smaller size, the Arete One 6L dehumidifier delivers strong moisture control without taking over the room. It’s ideal for spaces up to 25m², around the size of a double bedroom.

Its slim, flush-back shape lets it sit close to a wall or under a desk, supplying cleaner, drier air without stealing space. Lightweight and simple to move, it can sit on furniture or counters, giving you reliable performance wherever you need it.

Dry laundry indoors quickly

No outdoor drying area? Constant washing and a lingering damp smell? The Arete One 6L has you covered.

Smart Laundry Mode makes indoor drying faster, easier and more efficient. It can dry a typical load in around 6 hours, making it ideal for flats, shared homes and places without outdoor drying or a tumble dryer. This mode speeds up drying while removing excess moisture from the air, helping prevent damp, protecting windows and walls from condensation and keeping the space fresher. No more laundry on radiators or waking up to a heavy, humid room, just faster drying and better air quality at the press of a button.

Sleep- and study-friendly night mode

Late-night revision or sensitive sleepers? The Arete One 6L works quietly in the background.

Night Mode disables all lights and beeps for low-distraction running. With sound levels from just 32dB and no bright control panel, it’s perfect for light sleepers, nurseries, home offices or late study sessions. Whether you’re working, winding down or sleeping, it keeps cleaning and dehumidifying the air without disturbance.

Energy-saving smart humidity control

The Arete® One 6L includes Meaco Control Logic, a one-touch setting that gives consistent comfort with minimal effort. It maintains a steady humidity level with maximum energy efficiency.

Once your chosen humidity is reached, the unit switches off and checks the air every 30 minutes, only restarting if levels rise by more than 5%. This smart system keeps running costs low while maintaining comfortable air quality.

All the clever work happens in the background. You simply press a button and enjoy efficient, economical operation.

Two-in-one performance

Rather than buying both a dehumidifier and an air purifier, the MeacoDry Arete combines them in one sleek unit. The Arete One 6L handles damp, mould and condensation while also purifying the air, ideal when space is tight.

With its built-in medical-grade H13 HEPA filter, Arete® can capture 99.75% of particles as small as 0.3 micrometres. Just insert the filter in the back and run the dehumidifier; Arete® takes care of the rest. You can also use Air Purification Mode on its own if you want it purely for cleaner air.

Warranty

Every Arete® One 6L includes a five-year warranty for long-lasting reassurance. Your purchase is protected, with expert support available whenever you need it.
