How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Normal operation, but check for overheating if running non-stop.
- Reduce moisture sources: Close windows and doors, fix water leaks, and limit activities that add moisture.
- Check room size: Ensure the dehumidifier's pint/day rating matches the room size and conditions.
- Verify sensor accuracy: Compare with an external hygrometer. Replace humidity sensor if readings are inaccurate.
