Choosing a Location

A dehumidifier operating in a basement will have little or no

effect in drying an adjacent enclosed storage area, such as a

closet, unless there is adequate circulation of air in and out of

the area.

coils can become covered with frost at temperatures below

41°F, which may reduce performance.

NOTE: The dehumidifier has rollers to aid placement,

but it should only be rolled on smooth, flat surfaces.

Do not attempt to roll the dehumidifier on carpet or

over objects.

Moist, humid air is drawn over a cold refrigerated

dehumidifying coil. Moisture in the air condenses on this coil

and drains into a bucket (or through a hose and drain).

Dry, clean air is drawn through the condenser where it is

heated and discharged out the top grille into the room.

It is normal for the surrounding air to become slightly warmer

as the dehumidifier operates.

Automatic Defrost

When frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the compressor

will cycle off and the fan will continue to run until the frost

disappears.

When the coil is defrosted, the compressor or fan will

automatically restart and dehumidifying will resume.
