  If your Perfect Aire dehumidifier isn't collecting water, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the unit's size is appropriate for the room. When initially installed, run it on Continuous Mode for 24 hours. Allow sufficient time for moisture removal and set the humidity level low enough to ensure it actively removes moisture. The current humidity setting might match the room's actual humidity, preventing water collection. Verify that all doors and windows are closed, the unit is level with good air circulation, and the room temperature is above 41ºF.

What to do if my Perfect Aire Dehumidifier continuous drain is not working?

  If the continuous drain on your Perfect Aire dehumidifier isn't working correctly, make sure the hose is clean, pliable, and no more than 6 feet long. Ensure the hose is securely attached at both ends, especially the connector inside the unit. The hose should exit from the back of the unit and slope downwards towards the drain. If using a garden hose with an adapter, verify the connection is secure. Check for obstructions, kinks, or tears in the hose. The unit should be level, and the bucket should be fully pushed in. Ensure the filter, vents, and bucket are clean. If water still goes into the bucket, double-check the setup or try re-attaching the hose.

Why is my Perfect Aire 4PAD70 always running?

  Rachel GravesAug 17, 2025
  Your Perfect Aire Dehumidifier might be continuously running for several reasons. The unit may be too large or small for the room, or it may simply need more time to remove moisture. If it's in CONTINUOUS mode, deselect this and set it to an appropriate humidity level. If the room's humidity is higher than the set level, it will keep running. Ensure all doors and windows are closed, the unit is level with good air circulation, and nothing is blocking it. Lowering the room temperature or relocating the unit away from moisture sources like sinks or washing machines might help. Also, ensure the filter, vents, and bucket are clean.

  If your Perfect Aire dehumidifier isn't starting, first ensure the plug is fully inserted into the outlet. Check your home's fuse or circuit breaker box. Also, verify that the bucket is not full and is correctly positioned. If the unit is in NORMAL mode, confirm that the humidity setting is lower than the current Relative Humidity (RH).

  If you find water on the floor near your Perfect Aire dehumidifier, check all hose connection points to ensure they are secure. If you're collecting water in the bucket, verify that the continuous drain outlet plug is properly inserted in the back of the unit and that the unit is level. Also, ensure that the foam piece has not been removed from the float.
