Santa Fe Rx (4023673 ) Dehumidifier Questions & Answers
My Santa Fe RX dehumidifier is leaking lots of
Your pump hose may be damaged or the adapter that connects the small hose to the pump may be loose. The pump itself may be damaged as well. Unfortunately this means that the unit must be partially disassembled in order to access the pump and associated tubing. The pump is located on the bottom of the dehumidifier next to the fan.
You can call Therma-stor service at 1-800-533-7533 for specific advice on your dehumidifier.
My Santa Fe RX runs
Are you keeping all of the metal covers in place while the machine is running? If you remove some of the metal covers, the fan may not move the air through the dehumidifier as intended.
If the compressor runs (with all of the metal covers in place) and the accumulator does not become cold, there are a few things that may be affecting your dehumidifier.
1. low refrigerant charge - you may have a refrigerant leak.
2. blocked capillary tube or broken expansion valve.
3. blocked air filter prevents enough air from moving through the dehumidifier.

Challenge ram 710 manual
Hello
I would like to buy a dehumidifier "Challenge" ram 710. Is there a possibility to connect a little pipe, so it can be runned for 24 hrs, without having to care if the tank is full or not?
Thank you for all your answers!

My comfort site dehumidifier. When the bucket is full
If water is coming out on the floor from your Comfort Site dehumidifier even when the bucket is not overflowing, there may be a few possible causes for this issue:
- Improper Placement of the Bucket: Ensure that the bucket is correctly positioned and inserted into the dehumidifier. Make sure it is securely in place, and the water outlet on the bucket is aligned with the dehumidifier's drainage system. If the bucket is not properly seated or aligned, it can result in water leakage.
- Bucket Seal or Gasket: Check the bucket's seal or gasket for any signs of damage, wear, or misalignment. If the seal is compromised or not making proper contact with the dehumidifier's body, water can escape and leak onto the floor. Clean the seal and ensure it is free from debris or obstructions. If necessary, replace the seal or gasket with a compatible replacement part.
- Drainage Hose Connection: Some dehumidifiers have the option to connect a drainage hose directly to the unit for continuous draining. If a drainage hose is connected, make sure it is securely attached and there are no leaks or loose connections along the hose. Ensure that the other end of the hose is properly directed into a drain or receptacle.
- Internal Drainage System: The dehumidifier's internal drainage system, including the collection tray or drain pan, may be clogged or blocked. Remove the bucket and inspect the drainage area for any debris, buildup, or blockages. Clean the drainage system thoroughly, ensuring that water can flow freely from the collection tray into the bucket without any obstructions.
- Check for Excessive Humidity: If the dehumidifier is operating in an area with extremely high humidity levels, it may struggle to remove moisture effectively. This can result in excessive condensation or water buildup that leads to leakage. Consider using additional dehumidification methods or addressing the underlying humidity issue in the space.
If the issue persists after checking these potential causes, it is advisable to consult the user manual for your specific Comfort Site dehumidifier or contact the manufacturer's customer support for further assistance. They can provide specific troubleshooting steps or offer guidance based on their knowledge of the product.
