Have had this dehumidifier running for 3 weeks in my crawl space to help dry it out after sealing all the vents and putting new plastic down on the ground. Amazingly this unit is pumping water out at nearly 4 gal/per day (humidity was very high)! Pump works well to dump water in an outside container, and cleaning the tank, pump filter, and air filter is very easy. I would recommend this unit for its effectiveness and ease of maintenance.
