  If your Sunpentown Dehumidifier fails to start, there are a couple of potential reasons: * The power may be off, or the power cord might be unplugged or not securely fitted. In this case, check the power to the outlet and the fuse/circuit breaker box. * The set humidity might have been reached, or the water bucket may not be properly placed or is full. You should also check the power to the outlet and the fuse/circuit breaker box.

  If you notice decreased performance in your Sunpentown Dehumidifier, consider these possibilities: 1. The air filter or air inlet/outlet could be blocked. Inspect and clean the air filter and inlets/outlets. 2. Open windows and doors can impact performance. Ensure windows and doors are closed. 3. The unit may not have been given enough time to remove moisture. Allow more time for the dehumidifier to work. 4. The humidity setting might be too high. Adjust the humidity setting to a lower level. 5. The ambient temperature may be too cold (below 41°F). Try to increase the ambient temperature.

Why is my Sunpentown SD-52PE Dehumidifier not collecting as much water during the winter months?
- G
  Gloria HarrisonSep 3, 2025
  During the winter months, if your Sunpentown Dehumidifier is not collecting as much water, understand that when the temperature is low, the absolute humidity level will drop, even when the relative humidity is at the same percentage. There is less water vapor in the air when the temperature is low.
