Hi drginavet, thanks for the follow-up! Yes, if your Insignia™ 35-Pint Dehumidifier has a label indicating R-32 refrigerant and an A2L ISO 817 classification, that means it uses a mildly flammable refrigerant. R-32 is commonly used in newer appliances because it’s more energy-efficient and has a lower environmental impact than older refrigerants.The A2L rating means:A = Low toxicity 2L = Mild flammability with low burning velocity. It’s generally safe for residential use including in a basement with a furnace and water heater as long as the area is well-ventilated and the unit is installed and operated according to the manufacturer’s safety guidelines. Avoid placing the dehumidifier near open flames or ignition sources, and don’t store flammable materials nearby. Tine | Insignia Support
