Since you have already done the things we say to do, with no success and yours is not a new unit. It may be time to replace it. As often is the case, repairing older units can cost as much or more than a price new one. If you have been satisfied up to now with Haier, purchase another one from them. Their new electronic models are Energy Star Rated. However, this time if you do, also purchase and extended warranty. In the long run, it could pay for itself.
the hoses may have dry rotted during storage, this would cause small cracks at the bends or stress points on the phone. new hoses should fix the issue.
Shinn, I'd say you've gotten your monies worth out of 6 year old dehumidifier. Most of the time, it's more expensive in the end, to repair one than it is to purchase a new one. With that said, I'd vote for purchasing a new one. Just take as good of care of the new one as your did the old one. Obviously, you performed preventive maintenance on the old one and that's very important. Which makes you the exception to the rule, that most consumers don't take care of what they have and are astonished when an appliance fails.
Well life span is 3-15 years depends how long and hard you run them. 45 pint is about 1000sqft basment. rule of thumbs bigger better. run less and do a better job. I would start by filling the bucket and place in a dry shower see if you have a crack. cant find a source for the bucket discontinued this might be your problem. http://www.repairclinic.com/SSPartDetail.aspx?s=t-M7DH45B2A-%3d%3di1025984&PartID=1025984 Repair cost are about 40-50 and hour!!!! good luck
HI, you can purchase this Board by clicking the link below. it will direct you to an online parts store. you can purchase the Board at this site location as well if you wish.
Replacement 'plugs' can be purchased from most hardware stores. Depending upon their organization, it will/should be in the 'outdoor' section with the hoses...or in the small hardware section (with the dehumidifiers.)
As the bucket has the 'male' end of a hose, and the original cap has
been misplaced or broken, then you just need to cap it....or in the
case of a leak (smokeythecat) just put in a standard hose washer to
tighten the seal.
Just tell the associate what you are trying to do, and they hopefully can take you to either of these sections to locate the part.
However, if the above 'leak' is actually caused by a crack in the bucket....then a new bucket is more expensive than you (I) expected....I have just gone to the local dump...where the appliances are sorted out...looked for a dehumifier and liberated the bucket (the sizes are remarkably universal... ....this can/is/has been a location for the above desired cap as well :)
Hope these solutions help you to 'fix-ya' ....please rank.
