This 50 pint unit generates much more heat than prior different brand 50 pint units I have used. Why is that? Is that a design flaw? null

I don’t think so. The manual stated it will blow hot air when it is processing which makes sense. It intakes humid air, and as it is removing humidity, the byproduct is hot but not humid air. But only when it is actively removing humidity. It does not bother me.

I think it's because the dehumidifer standards have changed in the US. The heat you're speaking of could also be where the unit it located, is it in a tight space, against a wall or out in open space? Have you double checked the filter to make sure it's clean? The air could also be getting filtered quicker than you're old one. Not sure.
