11. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
& TROUBLESHOOTING
Are dehumidifiers
costly?
For about the first month of use, the dehumidifier operates
intensively. This will gradually decrease within time, since
the dehumidifier will have been calibrated in its working
environment. Condensed households may sometime be
significantly expensive to heat. The use of a dehumidifier may
lower energy costs.
Where should the
dehumidifier be
placed ideally?
For optimal results, it is suggested that the dehumidifier is
placed in a central area. Doors within the household should be
open in order for the dehumidifier to enhance its operation.
Can the filter be
replaced by another
HEPA type filter?
The dehumidifier’s filter cannot be replaced by any other type
of filter since it is specifically designed to operate with this unit.
Which is the
appropriate room
humidity level?
Maintaining a proper home humidity level is essential
for your well-being and that of your household. Extreme
fluctuations cause adverse effects on both; low humidity may
cause respiratory problems and damage on wooden doors,
windows, and furniture, and make you vulnerable to electric
shocks due to increased static electricity. On the other hand,
high humidity may promote mold growth, serving as breeding
grounds for various bacteria and resulting in poor health and
also a damaged home. The ideal humidity levels fluctuate
between 45% to 55%.
Why does
condensation persist
on windows even
with dehumidifier’s
use?
When the desired humidity level is reached, there is a
possibility of partial humidity formation on windows. This
occurs due to the temperature variation between the window
and the external weather conditions.
• Operating the dehumidifier should significantly reduce
condensation formation on windows.
Why am I not able
to set the desired
humidity level by
use of the control
panel?
In order to access the humidity "+' and "-" range settings, you
first need to press the "Mode" button, and have no indication
on the control panel, hence Clothes or Shoes modes should
not be selected. This will allow you to manually change the
desired humidity level.
How much time is
needed to dry my
clothes?
The exact time needed to dry clothes depend on many factors,
the room's temperature, the humidity level, the moisture of
the clothes etc., so there is no standard time since of these
variable factors mentioned above.
