Frigidaire dehumidifier after
Frigidaire dehumidifier after
Needed another dehumidifier after our previous one was recalled for a fire hazard. After researching and reading the reviews, I went to order the Frigidaire, and a newer model was available as indicated by Amazon's website. So I ordered the newer model and currently have it in our finished basement. So far, I'm very pleased with the unit. It's very easy to setup and operate. Has a extremely sturdy handle on the top, which can slide down and hide out of the way. The handle is great when you need to lift it a little to roll it around on the wheels. I set the humidity setting to 45% and have emptied the water holder a couple times. The fan shuts off and a little white light on the front at the top will flash to let you know it's full. Very easy to empty. Once empty, pop the water holder back in, and it starts right back up. One thing caught my attention; the fan seems to run all the time. This is not really a big thing for me, just a little unexpected. I thought maybe it would shut off when the right humidity level was obtained, but that's ok. The air coming out the side is a little warm, and with it being in the basement, it does seem to keep the chill off the rooms. Guess that can be looked at as a bonus. Overall, if you're needing a dehumidifier, you can't go wrong with this one..
UPDATE (4.16.15): I have this unit (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0013BKDO8/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_5) in the basement monitoring the humidity. After a couple days, it indicated the humidity was low. I adjusted the humidity setting upward on the Frigidaire. Next time I went down to check on the unit, the fan was NOT running and the water holder was NOT full. I stand corrected on the fan never shutting off.

There is misinformation floated in some of the
comments. Hopefully this will clear up most of it. As an engineer type, I
do more of the detail thing but hey, whatever floats your boat.
NOTE: Although I own this model, this is mostly information on dehumidifiers in general. Other reviewers offer detailed specifics so no duplication needed here.
This covers 1-how it works; 2-sizing tips; 3-general tips, 4-cautions and user reflections.
HOW DEHUMIDIFIRES WORK
First, a dehumidifier is just like an air conditioner except for the location of the warm coil [technically the condenser coil]. With an A/C system the warm coil is outside the house [needs a 2nd fan], so an A/C unit has its cooling coil [technically a DX or expansion coil] inside the house [cooling it] and the heat it absorbs from the house air is transferred to the warm coil outside the house. Basically it is simple; the heat in the house is dumped outside. It's gotta go somewhere!
With a dehumidifier, the warm coil is inside, so the air cooled by the cooling coil blows across the warm coil [one fan needed]. Why? What happens? Well the cool air passing through the cool coil is warmed by the warm coil before exiting the unit.. The net result is that air discharged from the dehumidifier leaves the unit at about 100F [or about 20F warmer than room temperature]. What happens is that a dehumidifier does a better job removing moisture from the air but does not cool the house.
If you are a little confused, try this. Turn your dehumidifier off for about 5 minutes [this is important, trust me]. When you turn it on, put your hand immediately over the discharge air from the unit. You will feel cold air. As the warm air coil heats up, the discharge air changes from cold air to warm air.
