In this review, we are going to be taking a look at the Frigidaire Gallery Large Room 70 Pint Dehumidifier. You are going to learn what this dehumidifier has to offer, and whether or not it offers what you need in a dehumidifier.
Easy Set-Up
Right off the bat, you’re going to notice that setting up this dehumidifier is an easy process. Most of this ease is due to the excellent design this dehumidifier offers. All of the little features and design traits this dehumidifier relies on are outlined and labeled, allowing you to look at this dehumidifier and understand it in a nearly instantaneous manner.
When you are moving this dehumidifier around, so that you can set it up, you’ll notice that there are caster wheels on the bottom and handles on the sides. With the caster wheels, it’s very easy for you to push the dehumidifier from one room to another. That way, if you need to move it from a living room to a bedroom, for example, then you can easily do so. And, if you need to lift the dehumidifier off the ground – perhaps, you’re going up a flight of stairs – then you can do that, as well.
Simple & Useful Controls
On the front of this dehumidifier, there’s a small control panel that consists of various buttons. Each button corresponds to a particular feature/setting, and while these settings and features are basic, they are extremely useful.
While this dehumidifier is running, two of the most useful settings that you’ll be using have to do with the speed of the fan, and the humidity percentage. With the fan speed setting, you are able to determine how fast this dehumidifier’s fan is running. If the fan is running at a lower speed, this means less air is sucked into the dehumidifier, at any given time, and that less humidity is removed. But, if it’s running at a higher speed, then more humidity is removed in a shorter period of time.
With the humidity percentage setting, you can choose how much humidity remains in your space. If you want there to be 50% humidity in the space that you are dehumidifying, then you can set the dehumidifier to that setting. But, if you want there to be less humidity – more, for that matter – then you can set the dehumidifier to that, as well.
As for the other settings and features, there’s a timer that you can use. With this timer, you can determine how long the dehumidifier runs for. And then, when the dehumidifier has run for that period of time – two-hours, for example – it will shut off. That way, the entire dehumidification process is completely automated, allowing for a more convenient and effortless experience with this dehumidifier.
Extremely Efficient
A big part of what makes this dehumidifier such a great purchase is the fact that it is, above all else, extremely efficient. What makes this dehumidifier so efficient is the sheer amount of humidity that it’s capable of removing within a single 24-hour period.
In just 24-hours, this dehumidifier can remove 70-pints of moisture from a particular space. That is a lot of moisture, and as such, this dehumidifier is extremely efficient and very effective at keeping your air free of excess humidity.
Of course, all of that humidity has to go somewhere, which brings us to the next set of excellent features that this dehumidifier has to offer.
Water Bucket & Water Line
While using this dehumidifier, you have two choices as to where this humidity goes. It can go into a water bucket, or it can go through a water line.
If you use the water bucket, you will have to empty it out after a period of time. While this water bucket is quite nice, as it doesn’t require any extra set-up, it isn’t great if you intend to run the dehumidifier for a long period of time. But, even if you do, you don’t need to worry about the tank overflowing, as the dehumidifier shuts off when the tank is full.
If you intend to run this dehumidifier for a long time, hooking up a water line is the ideal choice. With the water line, you can force all of the dehumidified moisture to flow through the water line and into the drain of your faucet or outside.
Conclusion: Efficient & Effective Dehumidifier
The Frigidaire Gallery Large Room 70 Pint Dehumidifier is efficient and effective, allowing for a very pleasant and easy dehumidification experience!
