AprilAire E100 Pro Dehumidifier Bundle - 100 Pint Whole House Dehumidifier - Full Complete Kit - Crawl Spaces, Basements, Whole Homes, Commercial up to 5,500 sq. ft - 5 Year Warranty Included

I gave up on the cheap ($300) dehumidifiers that break every 2-3 years and don’t dehumidify enough.Although comparatively expensive, this is a high quality unit that has double the capacity of most other dehumidifiers. You have the option to run it as a standalone, or ducted unit. Very versatile.

Easy install to replace existing unit. AC company wanted $4700. I did it myself.

I have a basement systems dehumidifier installed by dryzone when they encapsulated my crawl space in my newly purchased near the beach house several years ago. I noticed my electric bill going up a lot for quite a few months this summer. I have a remote temp and humidity Wi-Fi sensor in the crawl space reporting the humidity to be in the upper 70% range. I also have a Kasa plug that reported the dehumidifier running 24 hours a day, at nearly 700 watts draw. So I researched dehumidifiers for crawl spaces, and this April AIr is rated the same 100 pints as the old one with many positive 5 star reviews. I got the kit that include legs and a drain hose. Its weight and size made it a two person job to get it through the barely big enough crawl space door and 30 or so feet over to its home. Since there was already a dedicated electric plug and a drain into the sump pump pit, final installation was easy with some minor adjusting to get it level. Got the control panel set how I wanted it. Within a day the humidity was down to 50 to 55%. It would run 30 minutes and off 60 minutes most days. Very humid days it ran a bit more. I expect this coming winter to see it running much less. The Kasa plug makes keeping track of the electric use real easy, and the WiFI humidity reader confirms it is working effectively. This dehumidifier will pay for itself in reduced power charges in 18 months, and the crawl space will stop deteriorating from the excessive humidity. The old dehumidifier needed expensive filters, the April Air has a washable filter, another big cost savings. It's also quieter too, it's hard to hear through the floor to tell if it's running. As long as it gives me a long life, I will remain happy.In my inland house I have an Oasis dehumidifier in the basement that is 50+ years old, and is still running perfectly, other than the humidistat failed. I bought a stand alone humidistat, wire jumped the bad one, and plugged the Oasis into the stand alone stat, it has a digital readout and the ability to set it to turn at 53% and off at 50%. If the April Air lasts half as long as the Oasis, I'll be real happy.

Easy to install. Works great.

Very easy installation. Works well.

I got quotes for tens of thousands worth of work done to my basement because a tiny bit of water trickles in during heavy rain and snow. I don't have the budget to do a full remodel like that. this thing runs well and doesnt hurt my electric bill as much as a smaller one probably would struggling all day to keep up. I had an issue with the first one delivered dented and customer service was completely amazing. Hopefully I wont need them in the future but if I did I would feel confident.

It does exactly what they said it would do. It took about a month and it got the humidity down to the mid 30 from about 70%. That's why it took so long and hasn't missed a beat since. This was a crawl space 1800 sq ft by 4 high.

Great product has been able to keep the house at appropriate humidity level
