Technology and Extraction

The Frigidaire FAD504DWD 50-pint Dehumidifier is provided with a fan that pulls moisture-laden air across the dehumidifying coil. The coils condense or draw moisture from the air and air flows through the side louvers into the room as dry, warm air. The extraction rate is 50 pints per day.

Bacteria filter

Thanks to a bacteria filter, Frigidaire FAD504DWD 50-pint Dehumidifier also helps eliminate harmful bacteria, room odors and other airborne particles.

Water tank and continuous drain option

The Frigidaire FAD504DWD 50-pint Dehumidifier features a water tank of 16,3 pints. The automatic shut-off turns off the unit every time the tank is almost full. The tank is placed on the front of the device for easy access whenever you need to empty it, while the carrying handle and splash guard make emptying your bucket hassle-free. Plus, the slide-out bottom provides easy access to the filter. When the unit is located near a sustainable drain, also, the Frigidaire dehumidifier is capable of continuous operation.

Control Panel

The Frigidaire FAD504DWD 50-pint Dehumidifier features electronic controls with digital humidity readout. A couple of LED indicators inform you when it’s time to clean the filter and when the water tank nears its capacity and it’s time to empty your bucket. The control panel also allows you to choose the fan speed and set a timer.
But the strong point of this Frigidaire FAD504DWD 50-pint Dehumidifier is its electronic humidity control, which allows you to select and control the exact percentage of humidity in your room.

Noise

No dehumidifier it totally silent. Yet, the Frigidaire FAD504DWD 50-pint Dehumidifier is one of the quietest on the market. You can hear the noise of air blowing into the room, but you can easily get used to it and even stop hearing it after few minutes.

Warranty

Frigidaire offers a one-year warranty and a limited 2-5 year warranty on the sealed system (the compressor, condenser, evaporator and tubing). A PDF file about WARRANTY SPECIFICATIONS is available on the Amazon page.
