FREQUENTLY

ASKED

QUESTIONS

Smells

and

odours

On

first

use

of

the

dehumidifier

and

periodically

afterwards

you

might

notice

a

smell

coming

from

the

dehumidifier.

This

is

caused

by

the

Zeolite

desiccant

material

and

is

not

a

sign

that

the

dehumidifier

is

faulty,

nor

is

it

harmful

to

humans

or

pets.

The

smell

occurs

because

the

desiccant

disc

absorbs

odours

from

ambient

like

cooking

smells,

cigarettes,

cosmetics,

hair

sprays,

building

materials

and

new

furniture

and

then

when

the

desiccant

is

heated

the

smell

is

discharged

back

into

the

room.

This

smell

has

been

described

as

being

like

a

burning

or

acrid

smell.

It

is

normal,

will

not

last

long

and

is

not

a

sign

of

a

fault.

 

You

can

clear

it

by

running

the

dehumidifier

in

a

separate

ventilated

space

like

a

garage

or

if

it

is

dry

outside.

 

Amount

of

water

collected

and

size

of

the

tank

When

you

first

use

your

dehumidifier

it

will

work

harder

to

reduce

the

room

humidity

down

to

50%RH

(default

mode

or

the

desired

humidity

set,

if

settings

have

been

changed).

 

This

is

the

time

when

it

will

produce

the

most

water

and

as

such

will

require

emptying

most

frequently

(even

2

Ͳ

3

times

/

day).

 

As

the

room

becomes

dryer,

the

dehumidifier

collects

less

water

and

it

will

take

longer

to

fill

the

tank,

this

is

perfectly

normal.

 

When

the

target

relative

humidity

has

been

reached

the

dehumidifier

will

stop

collecting

water

and

will

operate

for

longer

periods

in

fan

only

mode,

this

is

normal

operation.

The

intelligent

logic

of

your

machine

will

save

you

money.

Unless

you

are

using

the

unit

to

dry

clothes,

we

recommend

to

set

the

desired

humidity

to

50

Ͳ

60%RH

If

you

find

that

you

still

have

condensation

on

your

windows

or

you

need

to

dry

the

air

further

then

the

40%RH

or

continuous

mode

can

be

used

with

fan

set

to

turbo

mode.

This

might

well

be

necessary

if

you

have

single

glazed

windows,

the

house

is

poorly

insulated

or

if

the

outside

air

temperature

drops

towards

freezing.

Using

in

Turbo

mode

will

add

more

heat

to

your

room

and

reduce

your

heating

bill

as

dry

air

will

heat

quicker.

For

unoccupied

properties,

garages,

etc.

use

60

Ͳ

70%

RH

with

fan

in

Turbo

or

Sleep

mode

according

to

your

needs.

That

will

ensure

minimum

power

consumption

while

will

prevent

moisture

related

issues.
