3. Setup

3.1 Placement

Place the dehumidifier in a location where the humidity is highest and air circulation is good. Ensure there is at least 8 inches of space around the unit for optimal airflow. The unit is portable with 360-degree easy-roll hidden wheels for room-to-room portability.

3.2 Power Connection

Plug the dehumidifier into a standard 115V, 60Hz grounded electrical outlet. Do not use extension cords or power strips.

3.3 Drainage Options

The unit offers two methods for water drainage:

  1. Manual Emptying: The water tank can be manually removed and emptied when full. The unit will alert you when the tank is full and automatically shut off to prevent overflow.
  2. Continuous Drainage: For continuous operation without manual emptying, connect a standard garden hose (not included) to the continuous drain outlet. Ensure the hose is sloped downwards to allow gravity drainage into a suitable drain.
