Possible Causes

Uneven floor surface, Loose internal components, Unbalanced fan wheel, Missing or hardened rubber feet

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before tilting or opening it.

Steps:

  • Level the unit: Place the dehumidifier on a flat, solid surface. Avoid soft carpets that allow movement.
  • Check feet: Inspect the rubber feet or casters. Replace missing or hardened Argo anti-vibration feet.
  • Inspect fan: Remove the cover and check that the fan wheel is not warped or clogged with debris on one side. Clean and replace if necessary.
  • Tighten hardware: Check screws securing the compressor, fan housing, and panels. Tighten any loose fasteners.
  • Test: Reassemble and run the unit. If vibration persists, the fan wheel or motor shaft may be bent and should be replaced.
