Frequently Asked Questions (12)

  • What causes the Kenmore 54351 dehumidifier to ice up?

    Frost may appear on the coils if the room temperature is below 65°F (18°C). This is normal, and the frost will usually disappear within 60 minutes.


    For more information, see pages 6 and 15 of the manual.

  • Why is my Kenmore 54351 dehumidifier not turning on?

    Your dehumidifier may not start if:

    • The power cord is unplugged. Ensure the dehumidifier plug is pushed completely into the outlet.
    • The fuse is blown or circuit breaker is tripped. Check your house fuse or circuit breaker box and replace the fuse or reset the breaker.
    • The water bucket is full. The dehumidifier automatically turns off when the bucket is full. Empty the bucket.
    • The bucket is not installed properly. Make sure the bucket is in the right place.

    For more information, see page 15 of the manual.

  • How do I operate the Kenmore 54351 dehumidifier?

    To operate your dehumidifier:

    1. Turn the Humidity Control to Off.
    2. Plug the power supply cord into an electrical outlet.
    3. Set the Humidity Control anywhere between Off and Max for normal operation. Turn it toward Max for more dehumidification and toward Off for less.
    4. To stop the unit manually, turn the Humidity Control to Off.
    5. To control the speed of airflow, turn the Fan Speed switch toward Low or High.

    For more information, see page 11 of the manual.

  • Why is my Kenmore 54351 dehumidifier not collecting water?

    If your dehumidifier is not drying the air as it should, it may be because:

    • Not enough time was allowed to remove moisture. When first installed, allow at least 3 or 4 days to maintain the desired dryness.
    • Airflow is restricted. Make sure there are no curtains, blinds, or furniture blocking the front or back of the dehumidifier.
    • The Humidity Control may not be set high enough. Turn the humidity control knob closer to the Max position.
    • Doors and windows may not be closed tightly. Check that all doors, windows, and other openings are securely closed.
    • A clothes dryer may be blowing moisture-laden air into the room. Install the dehumidifier away from the dryer and ensure the dryer is vented to the outside.
    • The room temperature is too low. The unit will not operate satisfactorily if the room temperature is below 65°F (18°C).

    For more information, see page 15 of the manual.

  • What size room is the Kenmore 54351 dehumidifier suitable for?

    The dehumidifier is not designed to dehumidify the entire house. You should make sure the dehumidifier is the correct size for the area you want to dehumidify. For best effectiveness, it must be operated in an enclosed area with all doors, windows, and other outside openings to the room closed.

  • What are the recommended humidity settings for the Kenmore 54351 dehumidifier?

    For more information, see page 11 of the manual.

  • How often do I need to empty the water bucket of the Kenmore 54351 dehumidifier?

    You need to empty the water bucket when the bucket is full, which is indicated by the Auto shut-off light glowing. The dehumidifier will automatically turn off when the bucket is full. Pull out the bucket by grasping the handle, empty it into a large sink or tub, and then replace it properly.

  • How do I perform general maintenance cleaning on my Kenmore 54351 dehumidifier?

    Before performing any maintenance, disconnect the power supply cord from the receptacle.

    To clean:

    • Front case, bucket, and cabinet: Clean with a soft cloth, warm water, and a mild detergent. Clean the grille with a vacuum attachment or brush. Do not use bleach or abrasives.
    • Air filter: Remove the water bucket, pull out the air filter, wash it with warm water and a mild detergent, rinse, and dry it before replacing it in the unit.
    • Coil: Remove the Front Grille, then use a small brush to gently clean the coils. If necessary, use warm water and a mild detergent, rinse, and dry thoroughly. Do not spray the coil with a water hose. Be careful of sharp edges.

    For more information, see page 14 of the manual.

  • Can I use continuous drainage with the Kenmore 54351 dehumidifier?
    Yes, you can use continuous drainage. To do so, attach a length of garden hose to the threaded drain hose connector. First, remove the drain hole cover, then connect a garden hose to the threaded drain hose connector, and push the drain hose connector tightly into the drain hole on the Rear Grille. The drain hose connector accepts a standard garden hose fitting. Do not overtighten the hose; use a rubber washer and tighten firmly by hand without stripping the plastic threads. Ensure the hose lies flat from the dehumidifier to the drain and is not bent or kinked.
    For more information, see page 12 of the manual.

  • What is the optimal operating temperature range for the Kenmore 54351 dehumidifier?

    The dehumidifier may not operate if the room temperature is below 65°F (18°C). Low temperatures could cause coils to frost, and the unit will not operate satisfactorily below this temperature.


    For more information, see pages 6 and 15 of the manual.

  • What does the 'bucket full' indicator mean on the Kenmore 54351 dehumidifier?

    The 'bucket full' indicator, also known as the Auto shut-off light, glows when the bucket fills or is missing. The dehumidifier has a water level control switch and will turn off when the bucket is full or not replaced in the proper position. The dehumidifier will not run if the bucket is not in the proper position.

To set the Kenmore 54351 - 35 Pint Dehumidifier to collect water only in the bucket instead of the hose outlet, follow these steps:

1. Remove the drain hose if it is attached.
2. Ensure the drain hole cover is in place to block the hose outlet.
3. Make sure the water bucket is properly installed in its correct position.

The dehumidifier will then collect water in the bucket, and you will need to empty it manually when full.
