FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why doesn't the dehumidier seem to extract much water if the temperature is low?
This is a compressor dehumidifier which works best in temperatures above 15
o
C. If the
temperature is low and the air is dryer than the setting on the humidistat the unit will not
extract water. If you want to use a dehumidier for outside buildings, unheated properties,
boats or garages please check our desiccant range.
Why doesn't the unit work /or stops suddenly?
The water tank may be full or displaced. To rectify: empty the tank and carefully place the
tank back in the unit. Also the unit may be running in dehumidifying mode with a low room
temperature. Please check if the room temperature is lower than 5
o
C. If so, the unit will stop
working while in dehumidifying mode. (unit may be defrosting).
The ambient operating range is between 5
o
C and 35
o
C with a relative humidity ranging from
30% to 80%. For maximum efciency use the unit between 15
o
C and 32
o
C.
Sometimes cold and/or hot air comes out from the air outlet grill, why?
When the unit is in dehumidifying mode it absorbs humid air from room and freezes it to
reduce the humidity.
During the cold cycle there should be cold air coming out of the unit
During the hot cycle hot dry air should be coming out of the outlet grill.
