11. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
& TROUBLESHOOTING
Are dehumidifiers
costly? For about the first month of use, the dehumidifier operates
intensively. This will gradually decrease within time, since the
dehumidifier will have been calibrated in its working
environment. Condensed households may sometime be
significantly expensive to heat. The use of a dehumidifier
may lower energy cost.
Where should the
dehumidifier be
placed ideally?
For optimal results, it is suggested that the dehumidifier is
placed in a central area. Doors within the household should be
open in order for the dehumidiifer to enhance its operation.
Can the filter be
replaced by another
HEPA type filter?
The dehumidifier’s filter cannot be replaced by any other type
of filter since it is specifically designed to operate with this unit.
Which is the
appropriate room
humidity level?
Maintaining a proper home humidity level is essential for your
well-being and that of your household. Extreme fluctuations
cause adverse effects on both; low humidity may cause
respiratory problems and damage on wooden doors, windows,
and furniture, and make you vulnerable to electric shocks due
to increased static electricity. On the other hand, high humidity
may promote mold growth, serving as breeding grounds
for various bacteria and resulting in poor health and also a
damaged home. The ideal humidity levels fluctuate between
50% to 60%.
Why does
condensation persist
on windows even
with dehumidifier’s
use?
When the desired humidity level is reached, there is a
possibility of partial humidity formation on windows. This
occurs due to the temperature variation between the window
and the external weather conditions.
•Operating the dehumidiifer should significantly reduce
condensation formation on window.
Can i wash the
carbon filter? You can not wash the carbon filter. That is because the
carbon will lost it's nature restraint to chemicals, unpleasant
smells, and smoke from cigarette.
16EN

How much time is
needed to dry my
clothes?
The exact time needed to dry clothes depend on many factors,
the room's temperature, the humidity level, the moisture of the
clothes etc., so there is no standard time since of these variable
factors mentioned above.
Why does the
dehumidifier
continue its
operation even
though the desired
humidity level has
been reached?
When the dehumidiifer reaches its set point it will continue
operating until humidity level reaches the desired setting with
a tolerance of 2-5%, then the compressor will stop operating
and soon after the fan will stop operating also.
The dehumidifier is
not a chilling device.
What could be the
cause of cold air
being extracted?
The dehumidifier operates by intaking condensed air removing
any moisture and sending it back in the area it operates. If
you are standing near the dehumidiifer while operating you
may feel that the air coming out of the fan is cooler due to the
diffusion reality, it is at the same room-temperature but with
less humidity.
The unit does not start
l Make sure the dehumidifier’s plug is placed completely into the socket.
l Check the house fuse/circuit breaker box.
l Check whether the power cord is damaged.
l Check the water bucket, if it is full, empty it.
l Check if the dehumidifier has reached its preset level.
l Make sure the water bucket is positioned properly.
l Room temperature is lower or higher than the advised operational range.
l Check whether the humidity level has been set in high level.
Dehumidifier does not dry the air as efficient
l Make sure that the dehumidifier has been operating enough time to remove the
moisture.
l Make sure there are no curtains, blinds or furniture blocking the front or back of the
dehumidifier.
l The humidity selector may not be set low enough.
l Make sure you have cleaned the filter as suggested. Clogged filter may result in
reduced performance.
EN 17

l All house exits (windows doors etc) where the dehumidifier is operating, should be shuted.
l Room temperature is below the advised operational range.
l There is a kerosene heater or something giving off water vapor in the room.
