Troubleshooting
If the
Dehumidifier
Fails
to Start
Make sure the unit is plugged
into an operating
outlet.
If the indicator
light (most
models)
is on, empty
the
full water container.
The indicator
light should
now
go OFF, and the dehumidifier
will begin to operate.
If
the dehumidifier
does not begin
to operate
make sure
the float is attached
to the water container.
Unit
Runs,
But Very
Little
Water
is
Collected
• Tile amount
of water removed
from tile air depends
on
the relative
humidity
of the air and the capacity
of the
dehumidifier
purchased.
When
the air feels damp
(high relative
humidity),
more
moisture
will be
removed
and the container
will fill up more rapidly.
As the unit
continues
to remove
moisture
and reduce
the humidity
in the area, less water will be collected
in the container.
This
unit
is equipped
with
a defrost
control,
which
will
automatically
activate
when
needed.
When
in
defrost
mode
the
compressor
will
cycle
on and
off and
the
unit
will
make
less water.
•
Room
humidity
is low (below
40%).
Save
Electricity
• In general,
dehumidification
is not usually
needed
during
conditions
of low room
temperature.
To save
electricity,
it is best to turn the unit
OFF during
these
conditions.
Sounds
It is reassuring
to know that your dehumidifier
is
functioning
properly.
These are some normal
sounds
which
should
not be a cause for concern:
• Air rushing
over air drying
coils.
•
Hissing
or thumping
- refrigerant
is flowing
throughout
the sealed
system
and may generate
a
"boiling"
sound
right after the compressor
stops.
•
Compressor
may "thump"
as it cycles on and off.
• Water dripping
from coils onto the drain plate.
• The humidistat
control,
compressor
and fan "tick"
as
they turn on and off. Metal makes
a similar
sound
when
expanding
or contracting.
