That is a lot of water it is pulling out of the air. I have a very large basement that had a high humidity of 60-70% or so it would fill the 13.1 container pints within the day, 12-24 hours. A full container isn't that heavy, about 13.5 lbs, to carry with the single handle and to dump. Really easy to remove the full bucket and carry to the sink to dump. Much quieter then the one I had to replace that quit working. Indeed, this unit in every way seems superior to its 70-pint cousinįrigidaire Dehumidifier FFAD7033R1 Reviewįrigidaire Dehumidifier FFAD7033R1 has many positive reviews from they costumer, when they buy it at online store. To top it off, the unit is quiet (quieter than the 70-pint version) and has easy to operate controls. Much better than I thought I could get from one of these portable units. Within two days, humidity dropped to mid-50s, and then 40's after a week. When I first turned on the unit, humidity was about 90% - downright swampy. In my area, electricity is 9.69 cents per KWH, so operating continuously, this unit costs $44 per month in electricity, not including the condensate pump. In operation on the high setting, this unit draws 628 watts. The other thing I get from my home automation system is very accurate energy consumption data. Many times, the unit will report 40%, but my humidity meter at the edge of my basement is in the mid-60s. The Fridgidaire has a built in humidity meter, but it reports the humidity in the vicinity of the unit - a very different level than found several feet away. For one, I have a few humidity sensors scattered around my basement, and this gives me a much better picture of humidity conditions. I have the dehumifier connected to my home automation system, and there are several benefits. I'd recommend a condensate pump - I use one of the Little Giant units, and the whole setup works perfectly. There's also the matter of drainage.95 pints a day is a lot of water - you really need a drain and some plumbing for a unit this size. The most challenging part - and it's really not a big deal - is getting the casters on the unit. So far, both units have exceeded my expectations.Īlthough it comes in a large, cumbersome package, it's actually easy to unpack and setup. In the garage, we use the smaller 70-pint version of this same unit, leaving the larger unit for the main area. My basement is about 2800 SF divided into a main room and a garage. I bought one of these for my very humid North Carolina beach home. The dehumidifiers are white, beige, gray or black plastic and measure between 19 and 24 inches tall, 13 and 15 inches wide, and 9 and 11 inches deep. ![]() The model number and date code are printed on a sticker on the back, front or side of the unit.
