Hello, Lolawater! This model will need to be drained during the Dry Mode setting only. The unit will continuously drain moisture from the room and a garden hose will be needed to drain the condensate from the unit when using Dry Mode on the appliance. We hope this helps. If you have any additional questions, comments or concerns, please feel free to chat with us online or contact us via phone at 800-374-4432 M-F, 8:30 am- 8:00 pm. ~Briana
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Not if you use a hose to drain the unit - you never have to drain it
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.For cooling, the answer is generally no. If you use the exhaust hose, most of the moisture is expelled to the outside air using this hose as water vapor, however at the end of the season (or if the air is particularly humid constantly) you will need to drain any excess fluid from the bottom of the unit, there is a drain plug built into the unit for that.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.When used in the cooling mode there is no drainage necessary. What moisture that is collected is evaporated and sent out the exhaust vent
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. It does not have to be drain unless you use dry mode. Then it comes with a hose to run. This unit does not cool like a window unit. I bought it and it does not cool off my room. Buy a bigger portable unit or stick with a window unit. I am returning mine.
