Collect the condensation water discharged in the hose with a bucket, and pour the water in the bucket regularly to prevent the water from overflowing. Because of the large amount of dehumidification of industrial dehumidifiers, please use the large capacity bucket.

This method can be used in a small warehouse or a small amount of dehumidifier.

Install drainage system

Install the drainage system inside the warehouse in advance.

In a large warehouse or a large amount of dehumidifier, it is recommended to use this method to drain.

Precautions for installing the drainage system

The drainage system of the dehumidifier requires your company’s plumbers in advance. Consider the flow of water and the length of the pipeline,it is necessary to ensure the water collected from the dehumidifier can smoothly flow to the company’s reservoir. Here, we explain the precautions simply.

The location of the water pipe must be 20cm lower than the height of the hose, and it can also be flat with the ground to prevent the water from flowing into the dehumidifier and cause failure.

The drainage system inside the warehouse needs to be tilted towards the storage tank. There is a certain tilt angle that will be more conducive to flowing out of the pipeline.

Wrong drainage method and disadvantage

Q: The dehumidifier is far from the drainage. Can the hose be extended?

A: Do not increase the length of the hose by itself. The main reasons are the following 3 points.

1)   The 12-meter-long drainage hose is easy to cause drainage clogging .

2)  Long-term blockage of the water pipe will affect the normal operation of the machine. And it is easy to cause damage.

3)  The drainage of the water pipe is not smooth, which will easily cause the water tray to freeze, as shown in the figure. And affect the dehumidification effect.

So use the original hose of the dehumidifier, do not change it by yourself.

Cherish water resources

The dehumidifier stored in the above two methods is the industrial water that can be recycled and reused. Please save water resources.

Please arrange a suitable drainage method according to your actual situation. There are any problems during the period, we are very willing to discuss with your water system engineer!
