- Does it need a floor drain?
- No. The built-in pump can push water up a hose to a sink, window or drain line, so a floor drain is not required.
- How loud is it?
- Owners describe it as noticeably loud. It is better placed in a basement or utility room than next to a bedroom or living area.
- Can it run continuously?
- Yes, when connected to a hose for draining. Without a hose, it shuts off automatically when the bucket fills.
- What size room does it handle?
- At 50 pints per day it is built for large, damp spaces such as a full basement. It is more capacity than a small bedroom needs.
- How does it compare with gravity-drain dehumidifiers?
- The main difference is the pump, which lets it drain upward. Gravity-drain models are simpler and usually lighter, but they need a low drain point.
