Having a dehumidifier in your home has never been easier with the De'Longhi 50 Pint Dehumidifier with Pump. It's your choice how you want to collect the water; you can either activate the patented pump function, which continuously discharges moisture through the 16' provided hose without having to ever empty a bucket; drain passively out of the unit with the 3' provided hose or manually empty the collection tank when needed. Either way you choose it's easy to monitor the water level with the frontally located transparent water tank. All De'Longhi dehumidifiers are Energy-Star qualified, so you can save on energy bills, plus they contain the refrigerant R410A.
Every unit is extremely user-friendly; you control the ideal humidity level that best suits your needs by simply adjusting the humidistat. You can also monitor the relative humidity and temperature with the easy to use LCD electronic controls. Maintenance is a snap; you just rinse the washable air filter when it becomes dirty. Additional features include easy roll castors and handles, a 24-hr timer, 2 fan settings, an anti-frost device, low temperature operation down to 41 degrees F, and tank control system with alarm.
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
We purchased this unit for our relatively damp basement. The pump was the primary selling point as our last unit was gravity fed and had to be elevated off the ground in order to drain into the laundry tub. We've been running it for over a month with good results and the pump works well.
The other reviewer commented on how the unit heated up his/her basement, but this has not been our experience. Drier air simply feels warmer than damp air. I'd recommend this unit to anybody who wants a unit with a pump, otherwise a cheaper model would work just as well.
