air dehumidifier with chemical filtering system/ chemical purifying system


Explanation:
we do not have "air driers" here we call them dehumidifiers unless they are talking about a "hair dryer" which needless to say is used to dry hair after taking a shower.
Dehumidifiers come with all sorts of filters, charcoal is the one most common as it traps chemicals and inputities in wet and dry applications (think fish tank filter - it uses charcoal also), but there are more specialized filtering systems to deal with contaminants such as paint fumes, acid fumes etc.
