5. Water Drainage

The Wpsoert WP05 Dehumidifier offers two drainage options: manual drainage using the water tank or continuous drainage with the included hose.

5.1 Manual Drainage (Water Tank)

• The unit has a 0.53-gallon (2-liter) removable water tank.
• When the tank is full, the dehumidifier will automatically shut off, and an indicator light will illuminate.
• Carefully pull out the water tank from the front of the unit.
• Empty the collected water.
• Slide the empty tank back into the unit until it clicks into place. The dehumidifier will resume operation.

5.2 Continuous Drainage (Drain Hose)

For continuous operation without needing to empty the water tank, use the included 6.56ft drain hose.

1. Locate the drain outlet on the back or side of the unit (refer to product diagrams).
2. Remove the rubber stopper from the drain outlet.
3. Connect one end of the drain hose to the outlet, ensuring a secure fit.
4. Direct the other end of the hose to a suitable drain (e.g., floor drain, large bucket, sink). Ensure the hose is sloped downwards to allow gravity drainage and is free of kinks.
5. Once connected, the unit will continuously drain water, bypassing the internal tank.
