Frequent enquiries
Q: Why is there less water stored in dehumidifier water
tank in Winter?
In winter temperature is low and air is dry. In comparison with summer,
the dehumidification ability of the dehumidifier decreases remarkably,
this is not a product defect.
Q: Why the dehumidifier
running suddenly？
cannot
run or stops
 In this case, this dehumidifier may be full of water or the water tank is not
installed properly, please drain the water in the water tank, or re-install the
water tank in a proper way.
 At the moment the dehumidifier may be in the “dehumidification mode”, the
ambient temperature is lower or higher (dehumidification cannot be
performed ）when the ambient temperature is ＜41℉or ＞90℉).
The ambient temperature for operation of the dehumidifier is 41 - 90 ℉, and
the relative humidity is 30%-80%. The optimal temperature for use is
61-90℉.
Q: Why is hot air blown out from air supply outlet?
 This dehumidifier extracts the air in the room, and the dehumidification unit
cools the air, the temperature decreases below the condensation point, the air
condenses into water drops, which falls into water tank finally, and the
dehumidified air is heated by the temperature returning unit. This can reduce
energy consumption and also accelerate dehumidification, therefore, hot air
is blown out, this is not a product defect.

Installation
 Please drain the water from water tank before running.
 During running please do not open doors and windows as much as
possible to save energy resources.
 When the dehumidifier is installed, a certain space must be reserved
around this dehumidifier, the minimum distance above is 19.7inch,
and the minimum distance in front/rear and left/right is 7.9inch as
required, as shown in figure below.
 When big noise is found during operation of this dehumidifier:
It is recommended inserting pads or damping rubber sheets, etc.
below this dehumidifier, this can reduce vibration and noise, and can
also reduce sinking of wood floor or carpet.
