Good Morning Au2sh,

I understand you are wondering how a continuous drain dehumidifier works. Below are some instructions on how to make your dehumidifier continuously drain.

For Continuous Drainage:

a. For constant drainage operation, you will need a garden hose and a drain nearby to discharge the water into.

b. Remove the bucket from the appliance and set aside.

c. Lift up the side flap located on the left side of the appliance as looking from the front.

d. Insert the female threaded end of the hose through the opening.

e. Screw the garden hose onto the threaded portion of the tray underneath the bucket opening.

f. Make sure the hose is secure so there are not leaks.

g. Direct the hose toward the drain making sure that there are no kinks that will stop the water flowing.

h. Place the end of the hose into the drain.

i. Place the bucket back in the appliance and make sure that it is located correctly.

j. Select the desired humidity setting and fan speed on the unit for continuous draining to start.

Note:

If the dehumidifier stops operating check that the bucket full light is illuminated. If it is remove the bucket and empty the contents and then check the seal between the hose and the drip tray. If there is a small leak then replace the hose gasket and re-tighten the hose. Hope this is helpful.

-Best Regards-
