humidity and temperature of 30°C. This is the world-wide standard for rating
dehumidifiers. In New Zealand we do not have climatic conditions with this humidity and

Attention: This Dehumidifier is rated to extract 10L per day in an environment of 80% humidity and
temperature of 30°C. This is the world-wide standard for rating dehumidifiers. In NZ we do not have climatic
conditions with this humidity and high temperature. Accordingly this product will not extract 10L per day,
extraction levels will be lower.
This dehumidifier is designed to provide optimum performance at 35°C -15°C but it is still effective down to
5°C. Ultimately the performance of this dehumidifier is dependant on the amount of moisture or water vapour
in the air.

PERMANENT WATER DRAINAGE
It is possible to connect a drainage tube (not

If this option is desired, you will need to purchase a
suitable tube from your local hardware retailer.
(Goldair does not hold tubes as spare parts).
Ensure that the end of the tube is lower than the drain
opening, otherwise the water will not drain and
flooding may occur. Also ensure the water tank is in
position (in the unit) otherwise the continuous
drainage will not operate.
Place the end of the drainage tube in a drainage
outlet. When you no longer wish to use the
permanent water drainage, disconnect the drainage
tube from the device.
