A:AnswerMaybe not but, it works great and my air conditioner runs a lot less. So after considering the savings from lessoning the use of my 5 ton air conditioner, and the noticeably lower electricity bill, I call it a win.
A:AnswerI’m having the same problem. The hose I’m using is kink-free and have pressed the “cont” button. I’m going to try again and will let you know how it goes.
A:AnswerCorrection to other answers: It is a one-shot timer that resets every time. The manual says: "The timer settings are for one-time only and will need to be set each time you want
your dehumidifier to turn on and off by itself."
A:AnswerOur Hisense still runs after seven years but it's not dehumidifying very well. It may have lost some gas although it will still pull a small amount of water.
A:AnswerIt’s a standard male garden hose outlet, also known as 3/4” GHT (garden hose thread). I bought a Dixon TCF72 female connector that has a barded 1/4” connector and then Watts SVGE20 Pre-Cut 3/8-Inch Diameter by 1/4-Inch Clear Vinyl Tubing, 20-Foot Length for the drain hose.
A:AnswerI owned a GE and recently purchased this 35 pint model from Best Buy. The design of the GE seemed to have less air flow than this model, which may explain the lower square footage. I use the 35 pint in a 20'x30' room in my basement and set the humidity level at 35%. The GE took almost a day to pull the humidity down to this level and seemed to struggle to maintain it on really humid/rainy days. This model consistently keeps the humidity level at 35%. The 50 pint version of this same model does a much better job though. I use the 50 pint model on the 2nd floor of my home, which is 35'x35' with another 35 pint unit on the top floor. It makes it much easier to breathe in the whole house with the lower humidity levels and prevents steam and moisture buildup in the bathrooms. I hope this helps.
