Does this unit use a standard garden hose for continuous draining? The manual lists using a 5/16" hose, which left me scratching my head.

Great advice. Also, remember that your house is likely just a hole in the ground surrounded by ancient dirt / clay. That means you can think of your house as a bowl that takes all the surrounding...

Sorry to hear. I bought a new dehumidifier and cleaned up and fixed an old one we had here that was running 24/7 doing nothing due to dust. While I was researching it, I had found a model that was...

Most dehumidifiers won't work very good in a basement. You need to get a "basmement dehumidifier" that is designed to work in lower temperatures.

Thanks. I would be placing this about 6 feet away from a floor drain so I guess no pump is necessary.

I bought this last year for the same sale price. This is a decent unit that is used in my basement. Couldn't agree more about how loud this thing and could get annoying if it's near a high usage area...

I have found a way around this. I drain my dehumidifier into a condensate pump, which pumps the water into my washing machine drain in my basement laundry room. New condensate pumps are under $50....

I personally wouldn’t recommend a dehumidifier for this application. These are really not designed to remove that much moisture over that short amount of time. While it will certainly help remove...

It will certainly help, but as someone else mentioned, it’s possible that it will run non-stop. I would suggest determining the root cause of the excessive moisture in your garage, particularly if...

Not trolling. Is what I did. Working well. My house burned down in 2016 and I was homeless for 2 years with my wife and newborn. $80 in extra precautions here is fine to me.
What if fire when not...

I can’t tell if you are serious or trolling!
But if you are serious, then advise about vents, fan and vapor barrier is spot on and I hade done those. Otherwise, sounds like a lot of safeguard with...

Will this help with stale basement smell?
I live in Midwest where it’s humid in warmer months.

If it's that humid in there, then this'll run forever and you'll be paying a ton in electricity. I recently decided to tear down my garage that also had mold issues. The problem with my garage was...

I'm not sure how the ones with built in pumps work, but if you have this somewhere where a drain isn't close, or it cannot drain with gravity, then you need a pump to get the water there. I have one...

Would this help with a moldy 2-car garage?
Assume I've done everything else humanly possible to solve the problem. Thanks

No pump, but you can still attach a hose and elevated it above the drain for continuous use. If you have a Costco membership they have the Danby 50 pint model with a pump for $180 I believe. All the...
