“Does the fan on this unit run continuously once the power is turned on ? I know the compressor will switch on and off to dehumidify, but I don't want the fan to run continuously....I want it to run in an Energy Saver mode like my window AC”

The first person to answer the question.........didn't answer the question. I bought this unit and tested it and it does in fact shut the circulation fan off once the humidity % setpoint is reached. If the room humidity sensor reads humidity above the setpoint, the fan and compressor will turn on again and drop the humidity back down to the setpoint and then turn the compressor and circulation fan off (silent). This is how the unit should operate. Some manufacturers leave the circulation fan running 100% of the time and aside from the noise, this wastes energy. The manual and all online information makes no attempt to explain this mode of operation which I think most purchasers would want to know. If this unit ran the circulation fan 100% of the time, I would have returned it to Best Buy today. So far, it runs very well, puts out moderate noise (meaning you definitely know it's on) but it is not too loud to be irritating. Quieter than a window AC unit. Worth the $130 I paid on the Deal of the Day.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Just purchased this and the fan continuously run even when the humidity level has been met.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It has a timer setting so it can turn off and on when you want if to
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There are various settings that you can select on the unit. You can have it turn on when the humidity reaches a certain level. You can leave it in continuous mode, causing it to run endlessly. Finally, you can just run it manually, as in turn it on and off as you please. However, to answer you question, yes once you turn the unit on the fan continuous to run. I've had it for a week and haven't found a way where you can turn the unit power on but not have the fan run.
