Question
I’ve been using my dehumidifier a lot this summer. How should I clean it?
Answer
To prevent fungus from growing in your machine, clean any pans, drains, and filters occasionally with a mixture of 1/2 cup bleach and 1 quart water. If you see mineral deposits, a common problem, scrub them with a mixture of equal parts vinegar and water. Rinse all the dehumidifier’s parts well before restarting it.
