Question from Mike: Asked on 08/10/2025 How do i get it to turn off automatically, including the fan when its reached the right humidity?

Answer from RogelReyes: Answered on 08/10/2025

Hi Mike, when the humidity of the room is 2% lower than the desired humidity, the compressor will turn off automatically, but the fan will continue to operate to ensure that the air within the room is not stale. The unit will use only a minimal amount of energy in fan mode. Thank you.

Question from Kirsty: Asked on 20/06/2025 Can it be used as a fan?

Answer from JoseBacud: Answered on 21/06/2025

Hi,Yes, the ElectriQ CD12LE dehumidifier features a dedicated FAN mode, allowing it to function solely as an air circulator and purifier. In this mode, it improves ventilation and air quality without extracting moisture, which is useful for odor removal or general air circulation.Thanks!

Answer from Rebecca: Answered on 20/04/2023

Hi Lucy,

Thanks for getting in touch.

The air purification is very effective, it comes with a HEPA filter that works to remove 99.97% of airborne particles such as dust, pollen, mold and bacteria. The UV light and ioniser add an extra layer of filtration.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Rebecca

Question from Has: Asked on 16/09/2020 Where is the best place to put it in a three bedroomed house?

Answer from Nick: Answered on 17/09/2020
For the first few weeks, leave the dehumidifier in each room for a few days to draw out the excess moisture. Then put it closest to the source of humidity which could be a kitchen or bathroom. Otherwise for general humidity leave in hall upstairs or downstairs.

Question from CT: Asked on 16/09/2020 hi is it normal for it to turn itself off at the 55% i asked it to and to not turn itself back on even at 63% and also not even have the fan bit going either because it keeps doing that?

Answer from Nick: Answered on 17/09/2020
If setup in auto-mode it will turn itself off when it reach 50-55% relative humidity. To over-ride, move to manual mode but I suggest 55% is about right.

Question from Brian: Asked on 07/01/2019 Does it come with hose for continuous operation?

Answer from Henry: Answered on 07/01/2019
Hi, the CD12LE does not come with a hose but can be used with a standard hosepipe with an 10mm internal diameter.

Question from Babak: Asked on 06/01/2019 How often should the air filter be changed? Also, does the UV light produces ozone?
Thank you

Answer from Henry: Answered on 07/01/2019
Hello Babak, The filters will last about 18 months before they need changing. The UV light does not produce any Ozone.

Question from Catherine Ross: Asked on 22/09/2017 Does it automatically switch itself off when the tank is full?

Answer from Sophie: Answered on 22/09/2017
Hi, thank you for your question. Yes it will.

Thanks,
