This dehumidifier has been a game-changer for my 1945 brick house with a dirt crawl space. It has effectively reduced the moisture and mold problem to a comfortable level of 45-50%. When I first started using it, I had to empty it twice a day and monitored its performance with hydrometers. The attached meter proved to be accurate as well. Although I haven't found a permanent spot for it yet, I have been moving it around the house and can't speak to its hose-emptying abilities. However, it has successfully eliminated the gnat problem and now I only need to empty it once a day. This is especially impressive given the spring/summer rainy season and clay soil here in SCC. Additionally, my allergies have significantly improved since using this dehumidifier.

I purchased an Impecca dehumidifier last Fall and used it for about a week before encountering issues with water leakage. Despite reaching out to the company and initially not receiving a response, I was eventually able to get in touch with them and they quickly sent me a replacement unit. I am now satisfied with their customer support and believe they stand behind their product. Thank you, Impecca, for addressing my concerns and providing me with a working dehumidifier.

I recently purchased the Impecca 4,500 Sq. Ft. Dehumidifier for my walk-out basement and have mixed feelings about it. The unit arrived well-packaged and without any damage. It was fairly easy to set up and the performance in removing moisture is outstanding. However, there are a couple of issues that led me to give it a three-star rating.

Firstly, the controls are outdated and don't match the unit's aesthetics. I would prefer more modern controls, and some parts of the panel are not intuitive. Secondly, the design of the reservoir makes it difficult to clean and it's nearly impossible to pour out the water without making a mess.

Overall, I will be keeping the unit and plan to run a drain line to it to avoid dealing with the reservoir. While the performance is great, the negatives significantly impact my overall satisfaction with the product. If you found this review helpful, please consider clicking the helpful button below.

I purchased the dehumidifier on January 18th due to musty odors and moldy smells in the house, as well as damage to my leather and faux leather clothing and shoes. When I first started using the dehumidifier, the humidity level was 88%. I used the turbo setting and had to empty the canister every 3-4 hours. I set the desired humidity to 35, and the machine ran 24/7, except for at night or if we forgot to empty it during the day. By early April, I noticed a significant improvement in the crispness and freshness of the house's smell. The machine stopped running last Wednesday when the humidity reached 35, and now it hovers around the 39-40% range. Overall, the dehumidifier has exceeded my expectations, although there is still a slight odor in the master suite, indicating that mold growth is being inhibited but not completely eradicated. My house is 3500 square feet with an open floor plan, and I usually leave the doors open and keep the unit in the family room. The house feels cooler overall, but the family room feels warmer. I rarely use my air conditioner, so I believe I would achieve the desired results faster if I did. The unit makes a sound similar to a low setting fan when I am in the room. Some people have had difficulty replacing the canister, but I have found that placing the unit on a level surface solves this issue.

We highly recommend the Impecca brand of dehumidifiers, especially the 4500 model. Living near the beach means we deal with a lot of humidity, but these dehumidifiers have been incredibly effective and reliable. We previously tried another brand, which didn't work at all, but the Impecca 4500 has been a game-changer for us. We love the design and functionality, and the fact that it's able to remove 1.75 liters of water from the air per day is impressive. Our indoor humidity levels have drastically improved, and we no longer have issues with mold. Overall, we are very satisfied with these Impecca dehumidifiers.

My experience with the new dehumidifier in our crawl space has been very positive. We initially had issues with water puddles in the crawl space, and the old dehumidifier became loud and inefficient after an HVAC maintenance visit. After investing in additional waterproofing and purchasing a new dehumidifier, we have seen a significant improvement in the humidity levels. The new dehumidifier is also quiet and has made a noticeable difference in the overall humidity in the crawl space. We will continue to monitor its performance and provide updates in the future.

I bought a smaller unit without knowing much about them, and it turned out to be ineffective. It was rated for 100 cubic feet, not square feet, which is a major difference. The new one does a much better job and can run for a couple of hours before needing to empty the water bin. I can't speak to its energy efficiency as I haven't assessed that. It is a bit louder than I expected, but I mainly run it when I'm out of the house. It is easy to maneuver, even up and down stairs. Overall, I wish it were quieter, but I am still happy with my purchase as it makes the Florida heat more bearable.

After using this Item for one summer, I am happy to report that all the features work well and it is quiet. However, it is heavy and difficult to move on carpet, and it uses a significant amount of energy. I was surprised to see my electric bill double after running it constantly for a couple of weeks to control humidity. It used as much power as my whole-house A/C unit.
