Dehumidifier Features
Moisture Removal
At first, the dehumidifier will remove large amounts of moisture It will continue to
do so until the relative humidity is reduced to a point where moisture damage will
not occur Then, the amount of moisture removed from the air will be a tot less. This
indicates the dehumidifier is operating effectively and is maintaining the relative
humidity at the desired level, .Judge the performance of the dehumidifier by the
elimination of dampness and dampness odors, not by the amount of water being
deposited in the bucket When bucket has filled with water, unit will turn off, All
models feature an Automatic Shut-Off light that will glow until bucket is emptied
and returned to the proper position
Operating Conditions
A dehumidifier will not operate satisfactorily if room temperature is 65°F (18°C) or
lower, or if the humidity in the room is low Under these conditions, the
dehumidifier should be turned off
A dehumidifier will not eliminate frost on windows during winter. The
dehumidifying coil normally operates above freezing temperatures and cannot
prevent moisture from condensing on the inside of a window pane that is below
freezing.
TIP: it may be helpful to use a dehumidifier in the kitchen or laundry area where
the humidity is high. Reducing humidity in these areas may reduce frost on
windows in other parts of the home
