Features Of The Ivation Energy Star Compressor Dehumidifier

Does This Unit Allow For A Hose Connection
The answer is yes it does have a hose connection port. However, it has been widely reported in reviews on Amazon that the hose connection on the Ivation dehumidifier is going to be loose because you have to secure the part to the machine on the back before you put the hose on and if you do not get this in place tightly it will leak.
Is The Unit Easy To Empty Out
When it comes to emptying this out, it is actually rather easy to do. You just have to be careful when you are doing it so you do not spill any while carrying the water or removed humidity to the garbage can. However, the overall action of removing and dumping the water out is rather easy to do.
What Kind Of Capacity Does The Unit Offer
Ivation is a great company and they have thought about everyone’s needs. They have managed to offer this in three different sizes for you to use. These sizes are going to be the ones that are going to be easy for you to use and find the one that will work best for your home. While the review here and the links are to the larger model, you can find the smaller units as well rather easily.
What Do I Like With The Portable Dehumidifier
I like the fact this is a dehumidifier that is able to remove a lot of the humidity from the home. This makes it easier for me to get the homes humidity under control and keeps the home cooler and free from some of the humidity that would cause you to have some health issues or even allow for the development of mold or mildew in the home.
Something else that I do like if you are able to get it secured properly, (see my dislike) is the fact that you have a chance to connect a drainage hose to the unit. This will allow it to run quite a bit longer and keep the unit operational on the warmer and humid days inside of house, which even with the newest windows and insulation tends to get warm and I guess the best word would be humid inside.
The LED display that you have available with this unit does make it quite a bit easier for you to use. This allows you to find the settings that you want to use quickly and easily, but also makes it easier for you to get the settings changed without having to really do much to the light if you are changing this around at night.
What Do I Dislike With This Dehumidifier
This is one feature that I do not like with this dehumidifier and that is the fact that the back hose connection so you can use this with almost constant flow requires a couple of screws to connect it to the hose. What is bad is the screws are not included in the setup and this makes it easier for you to have a loose connection when you are using the hose and easily lead to the dehumidifier leaking on you from the loose connection.
Who Would The Ivation Dehumidifier Work Best For
This is going to be a great dehumidifier for someone who is looking to keep the humidity out of the whole home. However, at the same time, this is going to be a dehumidifier that will work perfectly for the larger rooms in the home. So I would highly recommend this for someone who wants to remove humidity from the entire home or a larger room.
My Final Thoughts On The Ivation Energy Star Compressor Dehumidifier
If you are looking for a decent dehumidifier you will find this is one unit that does the job and does it quite well. However, this is ranked fifth in our rankings for a reason and that is definitely something you are going to want to realize as you do have other models that are a little bit better in our rankings, even with a slight difference in the rankings. Overall, the Ivation Energy Star Compressor Dehumidifier does the job and definitely will be able to provide you with the humidity removed from the property and have a nice feel to your home.
