& TROUBLE
SHOOTING
Does the Zeolite need
replacing?
No there is no need for replacement. The Zeolite is
regenerated within the dehumidifier and this will last
for many years.
Are dehumidifiers
expensive to run?
For the first month upon its initial operation, the
dehumidifier operates at its maximum in order to
calibrate in its working environment. As time passes,
this will gradually reduce, since the dehumidifier will
be controlled via its humidistat. In regards to damp
houses, the use of a dehumidifier may lower your
central billing costs significantly.
Do desiccant
dehumidifiers generate
an unpleasant smell?
During the first days of usage and periodically
afterwards you might notice a smell coming from the
dehumidifier. This is caused by the Zeolite desiccant
material and it is not a sign that the dehumidifier is
not working properly nor that it is harmful to humans
or pets. The smell occurs because the Zeolite absorbs
odors from items like cigarettes, cosmetics, hair
sprays, building materials and new furniture, and as
the desiccant is heated the smell is discharged into
the room. You can clear it by running the
dehumidifier in a separate space like a garage or - if it
is dry – outside.
Where would it be
better to place the
dehumidifier?
For optimal results, it is suggested to place the
dehumidifier in a central area, like a hallway. Leave
the doors open and the moisture will migrate
naturally towards the device to be processed.
Can we replace the
filter with one of other
type like HEPA filter ?
EN
Yes, the filter can be replaced with HEPA-CARBON
filter named PDD HEPA-CARBON and with CARBON
filter named PDD CARBON.
