Optimal Timing for Dehumidifier Maintenance and Repair

The best way to avoid needing a dehumidifier repair is to keep your unit well maintained. This means keeping the filters clean, changing the refrigerant once a year, and performing a general inspection of the unit every six months. If you notice anything unusual, such as a strange noise or a burning smell, get your dehumidifier repaired right away.

You should also get your unit repaired if:

• The dehumidifier is more than five years old
• The dehumidifier is not removing moisture from the air
• The dehumidifier is constantly cycling on and off
• Moisture is collecting in the unit
• You are having trouble turning the unit on or off
• The dehumidifier is making strange noises
• There is a burning smell coming from the unit
