Bhd-501-G 50Pt Dehumidifier - Heat Controller Inc Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We bought one of these locally before readnig the reviews. I mean, a dehumidifier is a dehumidifier, right? Or so you'd think. Mistake.
It worked great abut 2 days. Then I noticed water collecting in the bucket despite having an external drain hose connected. Though maybe the hose wasn't tight so I added a clamp and emptied the bucket. 2 days later go downstairs to find the unit shut off. Bucket was filled with water. It wasn't coming from the hose outlet. It was coming from the upper cabinet, which was holding a lot of water some place where water shouldn't be. Well we have enough water problems of our own downstairs, no need for another.
Then I found the reivews on the internet which present these units in a very negative light. No quick fix I could find.
So I got as much water out as I could and returned it. It's funny, when you open the box there's a big yellow card that says "STOP! Do not return this item if there are problems. Call for service instead." RIGHT, I'm gona spend $200 for this thing, then 4 days later take it in for service, my time and expense to get it there, and have it gone for a month! How presumptuous. That TELLS YOU right there, they get a lot of returns - and they JUST DON'T CARE. That means means poor quality, and the co. wants the consumer to bear the burden. No thanks. Let THEM deal with their junk product.
Don't but a Comfort-Aire.

Frigidaire Dehumidifier, 70-Pint Capacity, FAD704TDP Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I spent a night reviewing dehumidifiers at Consumer Reports, amazon, and elsewhere to understand what I should use for a damp basement after the 2010 east coast winter. I realized, finally, by plowing through all the hype, that the "70 pints" does not refer to the volume of the bucket, but the rate at which the dehumidifier can remove water vapor from the air: 70 pints per day, but the buckets are all the same, about 2 gallons. That needs to be made clearer in the review and advertising. For a block-wall basement, with French drains, in an area with high water table, or for any room where liquid water appears, you need the highest rate so the unit cycles on and off. Otherwise, you seriously waste power.
This unit (Frigidaire FAD704TDP) was not reviewed by Consumer Reports, but by others who were concerned with drying rates and noise. This unit is almost silent! It filled a 2-gal bucket in just a few hours in a 40x60 foot basement with no liquid water but with damp block foundation. Overnight, the difference was remarkable; in two days time, it was dry and liveable without further odors. It cycles in 1-3 hours, depending on rainfall, when set to 40% humidity, and I would suppose that higher or lower settings may be needed at other times of year.
I built a clear vinyl hose from parts at hardware store, and piped the water to the small sump attached to the house HVAC. The unit had to be placed on an 8" box (wooden), with casters to keep it from rolling off. Being able to see the hose water was important as grunge will appear; when not hosed out, this eventually blocked the hose and defeated the dehumidifier. The built-in air filter is not designed to remove mold spores to prevent this problem.
A very good product, confidently recommended.
