Getting error message of F2 on Soleus Dehumidifier. What to do?

It works by chilling a set of fins like a freezer. It probably needs gas. Get inside it and feel the evaporator with it running. Keep away from the fan though.

hi Randal.
this is all i could find on the internet.
Your dehumidifier has sensors to monitor for various conditions that may prevent the unit from operating in a normal manner
problem,the led display is showing e5, possible cause,over current protection..solution.unplug for 10.minutes then turn on the unit and if the e5 is still showing contact customer services or a dealer.

you could try this link as well to see if its of any help to you.

It is possible that the drain hose is not properly positioned. It is very fussy about that. Here is a link to the manual on PDF. See pages 8 thru 12.

Hello - Typically error code F2 indicates a sensor failed has occurred on the dehumidifier. You may want to contact your manufacturer to verify if the part is available and can be replace. Some do, some don't. Also confirm if the unit has a limited warranty on such concern.

A couple of answers say the hose should be no longer than 5 feet. Why does this matter? The water is simply draining downhill and out the hose. It isn't being pumped or anything.

When I searched this error code, I found that F-2 means bad sensor. I found no further information as to what sensor it was. You don't give the name of the manufacturer, so I couldn't search from that perspective.

If it is a bad sensor, you may require professional repair.

Before I took it anywhere to be worked on, I would be certain that the catch bucket was setting square (indicating no water in the bucket).
