I rather hastily bought 5 of these! on a recommendation in the comments section of my "How to Remove Condensation from Windows" video • How to Remove Condensa... , as it looked a pretty good little invention.
Unfortunately the 3 rooms I've tried them out in - the childrens bedrooms and a small 5.5 m2 bathroom - still have condensation forming on the windows over a month after I put the dehumidifiers in place.
So I'm personally a little bit underwhelmed by the Unibond Aero 360, and I won't be buying any new tablets when the existing ones run out.
If you are interested in buying one though, this is the one I bought:

I totally agree with you. I have had mine for a few years now for my patio doors which are just doors that open up into the back garden. It fills up with liquid but the condensation is always there and the water gathers along the metal strip along the threshold, sometimes in puddles!

[@davidpriest5253]

Thanks for the video Charlie. We used to use the old fashioned tray and silica gel type crystal sets for our house, which worked well, but always looked manky as they filled up. In the end, we opted for an E-Bac dehumidifier which has performed really well for over five years now. We have a small conservatory which we use to dry our washing when the weather is bad outside. With the E-Bac running in the room, we get no further moisture build up, and the washing dries really well. Sometimes, you just cant beat opening a window or two to quickly get rid of moisture build up (in bathrooms and when doing a lot of cooking).

[@CharlieDIYte]

Thanks David. Funnily enough I'm trialling an Ebac at the moment - is removing 2.5 litres a day and had solved my condensation problems. Video to follow reasonably soon.

The humidifier I ended up purchasing is made by electriQ. It’s quite sophisticated in as much as it has varied options for display and function including drying clothes which I must say is very impressive. It also has an ultra violet option which is supposed to kill viruses. Hard to assess the effectiveness of that. We keep ours on the landing and during the winter months and it’s going quite a lot. It’s be very noticeable in the reduction of the condensation issues had previously. I believe there are various options on tank volume and the size of House it copes with I must say we are astonished just how much water it pulls from the air. Very pleased with the unit and this is its second winter.

Charlie, you have just come up with the idea of you doing a video installing Secondary Glazing! I know nothing about the magnetic version, but in the listed building we had a neighbour installed the sliding panes which were brilliant. They are actually even better than triple glazed windows for sound insulation. Your problems would be solved and we will have the advantage of learning through you :-D

Hi Rebecca. Don't try one of these. Please. They're rubbish. Watch this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/inqnk2CmmbShjq8 and make as many changes to your lifestyle as you can.

Thank you Charlie, I concur 💯 percent 👍👍👍

[@KateMondor]

I had an electric dehumidifier that I inherited, it used to pull about a litre a day out of the air. That’s a lot compared to what collects in one of these. I’d get another if they weren’t so expensive.

[@davidpearce1934]

Had similar problem and until I bought a proper electric dehumidifier which I leave during the winter plugged in on my landing. It’s gobsmacking how much water it removes from the air. Condensation and therefore mould problems resolved. Worth the £200 in my view.

[@CharlieDIYte]

Yes David. I think that's got to be my next purchase. Out of interest, does it have an appreciable effect on the condensation in the rooms even though it's only in the corridor - as that's where I'd have to put mine as well?

[@johnmasi6929]

I concur with your findings. I had a very similar experience with these units. The reference you make to reviews is important. High ratings are relevant in decision-making but from my experience it pays to actually READ as many of them as possible for you may find that many 4 and 5 star ratings are purely given on the "great packaging" or the "solid feel" of the product. I have lost count of the number of times I have seen "I haven't got round to actually using this yet" and yet 5 stars are awarded.

You're welcome Donald. Please take a few moments to watch this kzbin.info/www/bejne/inqnk2CmmbShjq8 as this should tell you most of what you need to know. PIVs are the way forward in terms of reducing or eliminating condensation.

[@bmbpdk]

In Denmark, all newer houses have vaporbarrier, on the warm side of the insulation. That in it self is ok and prevent moisture getting into the insulation and walls, but... The problem with vaporbarriers and airtight houses, yes the new houses in Denmark are pressuretested, even the electrical outlets are airtights, is that even the slightest moisture condensates on cold surfaces, to come around that, something that circulates the air and dehumidifies it is a must, in Denmark a system called Genvex is very popular. But when people set up vapor barriers without a proper circulation system, airway illness appears, heavier condensation etc. I live in a 118 year old house, it have no vaporbarriers at all and theres a slight draft on the addict, and thats only a good thing, because after 118 years the wood is as healthy as day 1. Another problem with airtight houses is that you cant start your extractor hood without opening a window due to the vacuum or you cant open your windows after you started your extractor hood or you cant get a stove to fire properly. because theres to little oxygen.

[@morganefarcy4463]

Thank you for this honest review. Finally, it is nice to find a fair one. I think none of these products are miraculous, it can help but we can not expect so much. The best are still the electric ones.

[@craigpeel5995]

I have to say that I use one in a built in wardrobe which is against an outside wall and it keeps my clothes dry and no mildew on the walls. I don't think it's meant to act like a dehumidifier

[@stephentaylor1568]

They are great for smaller spaces, we have two in our static caravan over winter and I would rather the water collected in this unit than was absorbed into the van furniture.

[@RPKGameVids]

The back of the one in your kids room was too close to the wooden beam, there needs to be a decent amount of space all around a dehumidifier so the airflow doesn't get impeded.

Trying to hold back condensation on a property with single glazing is like trying to hold back the tide using a shovel. You need to be running dehumidifiers 24/7. I watched this review prior to purchasing 5 of the Unibond 360s myself. In my experience, they are excellent. For the past few years I've been running two small (1.5ltr capacity) thermo-electric Peltier technology "dehumidifiers" per large window in the lounge and also in the main bedroom of my bungalow, and a smaller one (1ltr capacity) on a tiny window. Brilliant technology, but with the cost of electricity these days ... I decided to seek out alternative ideas.The Unibonds will see me through until we eventually get the promised ultra cheap energy from renewables.Any. Day. Now.🤣

I live in an old cottage in the UK with condensation issues. I tried these a number of years ago and had the exact same result. I ended up buying dehumidifiers. These are capable of removing tens of litres per day. We can get a litre or more each day in each dehumidifier. The down side is the initial outlay and then the cost of electricity, but it makes a huge difference and even makes your home feel warmer. Thanks for the great videos.

I took mine and moved it from the windowsill to ontop of my cupboard, its no where near a wall and has airflow on both sides small room and still same issue with the windows....after 2 weeks of leaving it in the new place. These work ok. But they are not great but for £10 you get what you paid for. Id say these are fantastic for bathrooms which dont have a window and only an extractor fan. Which is where i plan to use this but id suggest an electric based product for clearing windows and not this.

[@syedaliii8920]

Totally agree with you Charlie. It works, but very suitable for my 3 bedroom property. I need to buy lots of those tablets! It's cheaper to buy a compression dehumidifier. (refrigitant type).

[@CharlieDIYte]

Agreed, as I discussed here kzbin.info/www/bejne/inqnk2CmmbShjq8. The ultimate solution though is a PIV.

[@rattylol]

Works for me. (I use the similar B&Q version) I put in on the floor in my bedroom bay window. I use one in a built-in cupboard under my eaves as well and it collects a bucket of water in there, stops mould on the walls. You do have to do all the other remedies such as opening windows after a shower, no washing on radiators etc, you can't just expect that little thing to handle it all by itself. I crack the window about two mm also, it doesn't make it any colder. Were too spoilt these days, when I was young it wasn't condensation inside on the windows it was inch thick ice.

[@jorose2460]

I remember thick ice on my brothers bedroom window in the 60s. I was lucky because the chimney from the coal fire went through my room right next to my bed.

[@CharlieDIYte]

Aw, thanks. 🙏 Have you watched this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/inqnk2CmmbShjq8 It's much more comprehensive.

[@traceya8699]

Heating, ventilation, and double glazed windows are my tips. In bedrooms as someone sleeps they breathe out moisture and it condensates on the cold window. Moisture will always condensate on the coldest part of a window. It was a big ask to get those moisture traps to work in your situation. If you heat, ventilate and have double glazing then a good quality electric dehumidifier should help but might not eliminate window condensation completely and especially on very cold nights. The space between the curtains and the window needs heated up. How about a curtain fan heater? You would need one on each window though!

[@nickdawes6600]

I agree. They didn't come anywhere close to getting rid of window condensation in our house.

[@CharlieDIYte]

Much cheaper to run and they constantly come on if humidity levels get higher than whatever I've set it at. I've also installed secondary glazing for sound proofing purposes but it's ended up completely preventing any condensation forming on the windows as they are not cold.

The makers don’t claim that this product will eliminate condensation. If you have a persistent humidity problem the most effective way to tackle it is to use a powered dehumidifier that has a water extraction rate in keeping with the size of your home. The Unibond Aero 360 should only be considered as a secondary measure in your case.

[@gingergingerginger1]

To be fair, it does say to keep the unit at least 10cm away from the wall, so that might be restricting air flow somewhat.

[@davfree9732]

The windows are the dehumidifiers. All that moisture is hitting the cold window and turning to water. The windows surface area are bigger than the dehumidifier. So it’s not surprising it’s not stopping condensation on the windows. Especially in Winter. I say this as I had the exact same experience with my 360. That said, the car cabin flooded last year and I popped the 360 in and it helped dry out the interior. If a passive dehumidifier is what you want then it’s design it pretty good.

Hi. I do not pretend to sound like an expert or so... But living in Scandinavia I think the condensation problem you have is due to lack of intake of outside air. If you have some ventilators it will most likely heavily reduce the problem. No house in Scandinavia has moister if the vents work properly. Take care, and thanks for the great review

[@DariointheWorkshop]

The problem with this kind of kits is that they do not circulate the air. They do remove moisture from the air near them, but then cold spots in the house, like windows, actually compete with the devices because they act like dehumidifiers themselves by condensing moisture into water droplets. Not trying to suggest a magical solution. I just wanted to explain the phenomenon.

Hi, judging from your accent you live in the UK. In your climate you will always get moisture on your windows if you have a single glass window. When the air hits your glass it has a sudden change in temperature and will therefore reach its "dew point". To avoid this, you need to install mechanical ventilation...

[@SteMan1971]

I've been using one of these for about 3 week now in my garage bar, and I personally think it makes a difference. I have a digital thermometer on the wall that detects temp & moisture in the air and before using this, the moisture reading always read around 75-80%. Since using this, the reading has dropped to 60-67%... so they definitely make a difference in my opinion.

[@CharlieDIYte]

But that moisture level reading is also influenced by heat as discussed here kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJPXmp1-gN5ljNE I'm telling you, these things are as useful as a chocolate tea pot, and you've got all that gunk to clean out when it's full. 😉

@@CharlieDIYte I'm no expert, but my bar gets pretty cold if I haven't been in there for a few days, so whether it's hot or cold, the moisture level is always the same. But since using this Aero device, the moisture level has slowly reduced.... maybe a coincidence? I don't know.

You should show a reading for moisture as I think you have a damp problem in your house and thats maybe the issue

[@emilscovasa4025]

Why haven't you put like 2 or 3 of them in the unused bothroom, it might work better that way

[@tinawrend8732]

I have one of these i change it monthly due to damp in my flat But.... ive noticed in the base where the blue water collects i empty it regular but ive noticed the blue solid mass is growing and can not be removed at all In 5 months its now around half up the base which im disapointed about

Hi great video.. Condensation prob in my house with double glaze windows. We open windows daily to air the rooms that's all fine. The prob starts at night in bed the windows fog up over night and are soaking wet the next day. Bought uni bond 360 looks like they will not do the job. I've tried use salt and other ideas nothing has helped. Did u ever get the window condensation solved or stopped

[@rattylol]

I can't imagine me "hoovering" every window every morning lol

[@borodinskyful]

this product works for me but the extent of my condensation was much less to begin with... basically got triple glazing (which is awesome) but the windows are set in old Aluminium window frames which don't have a thermal break.... so I get condensation on the frames particularly if the bedroom door is shut... this product eliminated the issue even with the shut bedroom doors as it essentially is sucking out the moisture we put into the room through breathing.

Have you looked at a PIV unit (Positive Input Ventilation). I had a big problem with condensation streaming, damp, mould. Fitted a Nuaire PIV unit and it literally cured the problem overnight. Also replaces your house with fresh air each day. Check them out.

[@CharlieDIYte]

Yes, this was my update to this vid kzbin.info/www/bejne/inqnk2CmmbShjq8 There's a lot of love for PIVs in the comments. 👏👌

[@abbsguy]

thank you

[@CharlieDIYte]

You're welcome but this is what you need to watch kzbin.info/www/bejne/inqnk2CmmbShjq8 👍

[@dcoughla681]

Ages ago, I tried this for a month like you & whilst it does remove moisture a little bit, it takes its time & I didn’t notice any real difference to be honest. Also, the refills are expensive. Better to change your lifestyle habits.

[@CharlieDIYte]

Agreed, as I discussed in this recent video update kzbin.info/www/bejne/inqnk2CmmbShjq8

[@sureshpeshawaria347]

I've been using this for a year now, works perfectly - I mean collects moisture BUT I still have mould problems..may be too much damp...the cartridges cost about £3-4.. one lasts for about a month...

[@CharlieDIYte]

You need to watch this kzbin.info/www/bejne/inqnk2CmmbShjq8 👍🏻

[@JohnPaulSheridan]

Thanks good video. What was that little vacuum thing you used on the window?

[@CharlieDIYte]

Karcher - check out my update video kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJPXmp1-gN5ljNE

[@vampirezio6996]

Did you find a good solution to remove moisture and get the condensation off the windows.

[@brendandax]

Bought one just this week - dunno why I looked for reviews afterwards! It's not like me. Anyway, I'm not seeing decent results yet after a number of days. I hastily bought because I saw an offer in a local bargain store for €9.50. Homebase are selling the same item for €25! I'd be fuming if I had laid out €25 for this.

[@michaelrobert503]

Ive tried these absorber types and they seem to collect a lot of water. But didn't cure the problem on windows etc... so I recently bought a proper dehumidifier for less than £100. and it is great, it seems to collect about a litre + of water every day... god knows where it comes from. job done. don't waste your money on these cheap absorber types.

[@travis3430]

As the window is colder, the condensation will go there. When theres alot on moisture in the air in my garage, my cast iron weight plates are wet (its vented well also)

[@qureshifaisal79]

Is it pick the dust mites from room

[@gazzaemerson4337]

I love mine

[@tigertiger12345]

Mine all work....I guess i have way less moisture...Some homes might need more in one room or an electric one perhaps, but for now, mines are doing great. I do agree the replacement tabs are a bit expensive though.

[@stuartsinclair6269]

Go for the cheapest option first, it’s like hot and cold meeting at a point, My first option is to clear seal around the frames, try and do it inside first then outside my theory is this should stop the two temperatures meeting 👍🏻

[@CharlieDIYte]

As discussed here kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJPXmp1-gN5ljNE

[@SuperDuper332]

Mine got spilt by the cats and now I have a greasy and slippery floor, it's a wooden floor and I don't know what to use to clean it

[@robloxfan4271]

Yes but it takes time to work it does clear my windows but you still breeth in the night so leave the room for a while then check

[@grahamcolgate]

Thanks for the video and your experience. To be honest, I am not surprised on your results, you do seem to have a LOT of condensation :). I use these in a few places and have had reasonably good results, like boat cabin, under stairs, bathroom cupboard etc. Helps stop mould and damp smell. These are generally much smaller areas with slightly more consistent conditions

[@CharlieDIYte]

Cheers Graham. You're right - those are the limitations of the unit - you just wish they could be as honest on the packaging, but clearly they're not going to do that!

[@nickteale7600]

Been using these for 2 years now and they don't stop any condensation. They may reduce some moisture from the air but not enough to stop the condensation. Decided to go ahead and buy a debumidifier which will save money buying aero tablets in the long run and do a better job.

[@CharlieDIYte]

Well done. These are a hopeless gimmick. You're much better with a dehumidifier. You might also find this useful kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJPXmp1-gN5ljNE

[@nickteale7600]

Thanks Charlie, watched the video and realised I've watched this one before. I bought a window vac a few weeks ago to clear the windows and shower of condensation after watching. Been following your videos for a few years now since I first watched your video on applying silicon sealer.

[@detoxhealth]

Solution: Have wall vents installed in each of the spare rooms. It's a one-time cost and will ensure that the moisture is able to escape continually to the outside.

[@pamhenry7498]

I've just moved. I put one in the bathroom where the window is very small and no extractor fan. Getting an extractor fan put in next month. Looks like thats what's needed here.
