2. Clean the accessible portion of the drain pan and the drain
insert using a mild detergent
3. If the drain has a capped tee or elbow to allow cleaner to
be poured directly in the drain, remove the cap and pour
approximately one cup of white vinegar into the tube (see
FIGURE 7) If there is no visible access to the drain line from
outside of the dehumidifier, pour approximately one cup
of vinegar into the drain pan of the dehumidifier where the
drain insert was located

4. Reinstall the drain insert by gently placing the tip into the
drain opening and rocking the insert downwards into place
(see FIGURE 6) When inserted properly, the top of the drain
insert will be at the same height as the filter guide channel.
5. If the dehumidifier has clear flexible drain tubing, look for
excess buildup in the drain line that might prevent water
flow, and replace as needed. Clear, smooth, flexible 3/4"
Inside Diameter (ID) drain tubing is available in most
hardware stores or Do-It-Yourself (DIY) retail stores
NOTICE
Running the dehumidifier without the drain insert can lead
to condensate leaks.
