An AprilAire Whole House Dehumidifier provides several benefits that can make life comfortable for you this summer. Though it may seem simple to install, putting this dehumidifier together can be more difficult.<\/p>\n<p>To be safe, we&#8217;d recommend hiring a professional. If you attempt to DIY, there&#8217;s a chance you may hear noises and become unsure whether you&#8217;ve received a faulty device. Since this is an excellent investment in your home, it&#8217;s a good idea to take the time and follow these steps before jumping to conclusions should you attempt to set the dehumidifier up yourself.<\/p>\n<p>Here are 8 installation tips you should follow:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1279\" height=\"570\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-23345\" style=\"width: 100%;height: 400px;object-fit: cover\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step1-aa.jpg\" alt=\"verifying aprilaire whole house dehumidifier\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step1-aa.jpg 1279w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step1-aa-400x178.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step1-aa-1024x456.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step1-aa-768x342.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1279px) 100vw, 1279px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>1) Verify the Label<\/h2>\n<p>Sometimes we receive products that aren&#8217;t exactly what we ordered.<\/p>\n<p>It happens!<\/p>\n<p>Check the box. On the side should be the model number details. This will verify whether you&#8217;ve received the right device. It is also essential to be able to look up troubleshooting information specifically for your dehumidifier model.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>2) Register your dehumidifier<\/h2>\n<p>After you&#8217;ve verified that you received the correct model, you should check for the serial number to register it. The serial number should be below the model number on the packaged box. It&#8217;s important to register so that you guarantee your warranty.<\/p>\n<p>With the warranty, you can receive a brand-new dehumidifier without spending extra if it hasn&#8217;t expired.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a class=\"ffbutton\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aprilaire.com\/owner-center\/warranty-registration\">Register Your Dehumidifier<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1279\" height=\"570\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-23347\" style=\"width: 100%;height: 400px;object-fit: cover\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step3-aa.jpg\" alt=\"follow instructions aprilaire dehumidifier\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step3-aa.jpg 1279w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step3-aa-400x178.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step3-aa-1024x456.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step3-aa-768x342.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1279px) 100vw, 1279px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>3) Read all instructions before attempting to install!<\/h2>\n<p>You may be an experienced DIYer, but slowing down and reading all the instructions can be beneficial. It&#8217;s easy to overlook an important detail that may be the difference between smoothly installing your dehumidifier and a difficult one.<\/p>\n<p>AprilAire Whole House Dehumidifiers come with a parts list sheet. Read through this sheet and ensure you have all the required pieces.<br \/>\nImproper installation can damage your dehumidifier or, worse, cause personal injury. Though it may seem like a simple step to skip, we highly recommend doing so!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1279\" height=\"570\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-23346\" style=\"width: 100%;height: 400px;object-fit: cover\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step2-aa.jpg\" alt=\"store aprilaire dehumidifier in right position\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step2-aa.jpg 1279w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step2-aa-400x178.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step2-aa-1024x456.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step2-aa-768x342.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1279px) 100vw, 1279px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>4) Wait 24 hours before running the unit if it was not shipped or stored in the correct position.<\/h2>\n<p>Manufacturers attempt to provide every product in pristine condition, but they&#8217;re not perfect. It&#8217;s also possible that the shipping company didn&#8217;t notice how it was handled. Either way, if you notice that the unit wasn&#8217;t positioned correctly, you should wait 24 hours before attempting to run it.<\/p>\n<p><i>So, what is the proper position?<\/i><\/p>\n<p>The AprilAire boxes in which the dehumidifier is contained have arrows on the side that show which way the box should be facing. A quick tip is that the opposite end of the lid should be facing up. When you open the box, the AprilAire logo should be upright. This should be the case even if you decide to pack it up for storage or when moving, so keep it in mind!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1279\" height=\"570\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-23348\" style=\"width: 100%;height: 400px;object-fit: cover\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step4-aa.jpg\" alt=\"safely remove aprilaire whole house dehumidifier shipping bracket\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step4-aa.jpg 1279w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step4-aa-400x178.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step4-aa-1024x456.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/step4-aa-768x342.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1279px) 100vw, 1279px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>5) Safely remove the shipping bracket!<\/h2>\n<p>Removing the shipping bracket is crucial to installing your dehumidifier. The bracket can easily get caught on the insulation on the inside of the device. A small tool, such as a screwdriver or perhaps a butter knife, can help you pry it away from the zip tie.<\/p>\n<p>During this step, take care to ensure that no small pieces of the bracket are left inside the dehumidifier, causing a ruckus.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>6) Ensuring the Dehumidifier is level BEFORE installing the drain assembly.<\/h2>\n<p>If you decide to install your AprilAire Dehumidifier yourself, when you&#8217;re getting ready to connect the drain assembly you should pay attention to this step. Making sure the device is level is essential so that you can ensure that proper draining occurs. To do this, take a level and place it on the unit.<\/p>\n<p>Adjust the pre-installed leveling feet to achieve perfect balance if the dehumidifier is off-level.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>7) Become familiar with the AprilAire Dehumidifier Diagnostic Codes<\/h2>\n<p>Like a doctor can diagnose your condition when you come in for an emergency visit, your dehumidifier will supply codes to give you an idea of what&#8217;s wrong with it. Learning these codes or at least being familiar with them will help you troubleshoot issues.<br \/>\nSome of the diagnostic codes are as follows:<\/p>\n<h3>Code E1 \u2013 Internal Humidity or Temperature Sensor Failure<\/h3>\n<p>\nThis code appears when your AprilAire dehumidifier has a faulty user interface.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Code E2 \u2013 High Refrigeration Pressure<\/h3>\n<p>This means you have an issue with the fan not operating efficiently because of an external obstruction.

A loose screw can damage parts of the device, so it&#8217;s vital to ensure this step is completed correctly.<\/p>\n<p>Use the proper tools during this process. A good screwdriver, a small flathead screwdriver, nose pliers, and a level are all recommended.<\/p>\n<p>If it is noisy, unplug the dehumidifier. Examine the screws on the front grille and the screws around the fan motor housing. If the noise continues, check the fan for any other possible blockages.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"724\" height=\"483\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22905\" style=\"width: 100%;height: 400px;object-fit: cover\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.filtersfast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/healthy-family-at-home.jpg\" alt=\"Smiling family sitting on the couch together playing video games.

Verifying your device, reading all instructions, taking your time, and using the right tools are essential tips.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re a visual, determined do-it-yourselfer, sometimes it&#8217;s best to go to the source if you have any issues.
