Power Connection:

Drainage Options:

Your Dreo dehumidifier offers two drainage methods:

1. Manual Drainage: The 2-gallon (8L) water tank collects condensed moisture. When the tank is full, the LED display will show a water-full alert, and the unit will automatically stop operation. Carefully remove the tank and empty the water.
2. Continuous Drainage: For uninterrupted operation, connect a standard garden hose (not included, 25mm diameter recommended) to the drain hose outlet at the back of the unit. Ensure the hose is sloped downwards to allow gravity drainage into a floor drain or larger container.
