  Your Danby Dehumidifier might not start due to several reasons. First, ensure the dehumidifier is properly plugged into the outlet. Check your house's fuse or circuit breaker and replace the fuse or reset the breaker if needed. If the dehumidifier has reached its preset level or the bucket is full, it will automatically turn off; change to a lower setting or empty the bucket. Make sure the bucket is correctly placed. Finally, note that there is a protective time delay of up to 3 minutes to prevent compressor overload after being turned back on.

  If you are unable to set the controls on your Danby Dehumidifier, it may be because the compressor turns off, but the fan continues to run for about 3 minutes at a fixed setting. This is normal operation. Wait approximately 3 minutes before attempting to set the fan as desired.

Why is my Danby DDR30B2GDB not removing enough moisture?

  Caleb MyersAug 12, 2025
  If your Danby Dehumidifier isn't drying the air effectively, several factors could be at play. First, allow at least 24 hours for the unit to reach the desired dryness, especially after initial setup. Check for any obstructions like curtains or furniture blocking airflow to the front or back of the unit. A dirty filter can also reduce performance. Ensure the humidity control is set low enough; for drier air, set it to a lower percentage or continuous operation. Verify that all doors and windows are tightly closed, and ensure a clothes dryer isn't blowing moisture into the room, and if so, vent the dryer to the outside. Finally, remember that lower room temperatures reduce moisture removal, and these dehumidifiers are designed to operate above 41°F (5°C).

  Your Danby Dehumidifier might run constantly if the area it's dehumidifying is too large for its capacity. Also, check that all doors and windows are closed to prevent outside air from entering the space.
