My Frigidaire 70 runs pretty much constantly and shuts off for just a few minutes to maintain a humidity of 55%. I'm also concerned what effect this might have on my electric bill. Since mine drains directly into a sump pump I can't put a figure on how often I would need to empty the tank. My basement is about 2,000 sq.ft. and is dry to start with, so the machine is only pulling moisture from any air which gets into the basement.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello Littleg. Be sure that the air movement through dehumidifier is not blocked. The grill may be dirty. Use a brush attachment from a vacuum cleaner to clean grill. The dehumidifier must be placed in a space that does not restrict air flowing into the vents or out of the front grill. Kindly, Anna
