Dry laundry indoors, fast
No outdoor drying space? Endless loads of washing and a damp smell hanging around the house? No problem.

Smart Laundry Mode on the Arete® One 6L makes drying clothes indoors faster, easier and more efficient. It can dry a typical load in just 6 hours, making it ideal for flats, shared homes and spaces without outdoor drying options or tumble dryers. This mode speeds up drying time while actively removing excess moisture from the air. It helps prevent damp build-up, protects walls and windows from condensation and keeps living spaces feeling fresh. No more draping laundry over radiators or waking up to a stuffy room, just quicker drying and better air quality, all at the touch of a button.

Sleep and study-friendly night mode
Late-night study sessions or light sleeping? The Arete® One 6L has you covered.

Night Mode turns off all lights and beeps, creating a whisper-quiet, distraction-free performance. With sound levels as low as 32dB and no bright control panel glow, it’s ideal for light sleepers, nurseries, home offices or late-night study sessions. Whether you’re working late, winding down or sleeping through the night, you can leave it running confidently while it continues to clean and dehumidify the air in the background. No interruptions, just cleaner, drier air exactly when you need it most.

Energy-saving smart humidity mode
The Arete® One 6L features Meaco Control Logic, a one touch solution meaning very little effort and big results. Engineered to maintain a steady and comfortable humidity level with maximum energy efficiency - all from a touch of a button.

Once the desired humidity has been reached, the dehumidifier switches off and monitors the air every 30 minutes, only restarting if humidity rises by more than 5%. This smart control ensures low running costs and consistent air quality, keeping your space comfortable and energy-wise.

All the clever engineering happens behind the scenes - so you just tap a button and enjoy lower running costs and smarter energy use.

Two-in-one excellence
Instead of buying two units – a dehumidifier and an air purifier – the MeacoDry Arete® solves both your problems in one stylish box. The Arete® One 6L is a compact dehumidifier and air purifier in one, ideal for managing damp, mould and condensation where space is limited.

With an integrated medical-grade H13 HEPA filter, Arete® can remove 99.75% of particles as small as 0,3 micrometers in diameter. Simply install the filter in the back of the unit and begin running the dehumidifier, your Arete® will do the rest. Alternatively, you can run your MeacoDry Arete® on Air Purification Mode if you wish to use it solely for purification, and you’ll be enjoying cleaner air in no time.
