Hi, There are many reasons why a dehumidifier willnot work or collect water. Here is a tip that I wrote to help people to figure out what is going wrongwith their dehumidifier
The most common cause of frost and ice buildup on a dehumidifier is
because the unit is operating in temperatures that are too cold. Many
dehumidifiers are not equipped to run at temperatures below 65 degrees
Fahrenheit. To fix this problem, Position the dehumidifier in an area where there is at least one foot of
clearance around the unit in order to allow for proper air circulation
during its operation. Close all windows, doors and other outside
openings to make sure your unit isn't attempting to remove moisture from
areas outside of the immediate room. Determine the temperature of the room by checking a nearby thermostat or
by using a hand-held thermometer.
Check the filter for dirt and buildup. Unplug the unit from the
electrical source and check the filter by opening the filter
compartment. If the filter is dirty, it will restrict airflow through
the unit and lead to freezing. Soleus recommends lightly vacuuming the
surface of the filter to remove dirt. The filter also can be washed in
warm water if it is extremely dirty. Once clean, place the filter back
in its compartment. Allow for the ice to melt and then restart your
dehumidifier.
