ecoQ DryAir 12L – Commissioning

Question

What do I need to bear in mind when commissioning an ecoQ DryAir 12L?

Answer

Place the dehumidifier in an upright position on a stable, level surface. Before switching it on for the first time, it is a good idea to ensure that the device has been standing upright for several hours to protect the compressor, as it is sometimes transported in a horizontal position. 

The dehumidifier should also be placed at a safe distance of at least 50 cm from a wall or piece of furniture with the air filter. On the other sides, the distance should be at least 10 cm. The supply voltage should match the value on the type plate, and the socket must be earthed. In addition, the dehumidifier must never be placed directly next to a radiator or heating appliance. 

The power cable should be easily accessible and must not be damaged by sharp edges or crushed in any way during use. The tank must also be inserted correctly. If the tank is full or not seated correctly, the ‘Tank Full’ indicator lights up and the dehumidifier stops dehumidifying. 

If part of your home suffers from high humidity, the dehumidifier can be placed there first and then moved to another part of the house later.

The dehumidifier works best at normal room temperature; its efficiency decreases when the ambient temperature falls below 15 °C. 

Additional note: Once the selected target humidity in the room has been reached, the compressor switches off and the operating indicator goes out. The fan switches to a lower speed and continues to run for 3 minutes to further check the humidity in the room. If no increased humidity is detected by the device during this time, the fan also switches off.
