TROUBLESHOOTING Issue Cause Solution Normal Operation 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 defrost cycle hot dry air should be coming out of the outlet grill. Is the plug properly inserted in the socket? Insert the plug into the socket and ensure the socket is switched on.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Why doesn’t the dehumidifier seem to extract much water if the temperature is low? This is a compressor dehumidifier which works best in temperatures above 15⁰C. 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 dehumidifier for outside buildings, unheated properties, boats or garages please check our desiccant range.
