Excellent, but cannot get red error light my to shut off!
on August 17, 2026
Posted by: Fella
Bought this humidifier 6 years ago - it’s been great! Easy to use and has kept the moisture in my basement to a minimum. WiFi functionality easy to use. For the last 8 months or so, however, I’ve troubleshooted everything and cannot get the red error light to shut off, so the dehumidifier hasn’t worked for this long. Next step is to call Frigidaire and hope they can help.

Dehumidifier works great but emits hot air
on July 5, 2026
Posted by: Momo9696
It works great. We were able to get a hose directly from the tray to a drain so we never need to empty it. It emits hot air though so it warms up the place at times. It’s a problem for us as we use it in the summer when it get hot and humid. Otherwise it gets the job done. We love the fact that we can turn it on/off from the app whenever we are!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We are delighted to hear that your Frigidaire dehumidifier has been performing well and effectively managing the humidity in your home. It's great to know that the continuous drain option has made maintenance more convenient and that you are enjoying the flexibility of controlling the unit remotely through the app.

We also appreciate you sharing your experience regarding the warm air produced during operation. We understand that this can be less than ideal during the summer months when temperatures are already high. Because dehumidifiers remove moisture from the air through the refrigeration process, it is normal for them to release some warm air while operating. However, we understand your concern, and your feedback is valuable as we continue working to improve the comfort and performance of our products.

Thank you for choosing Frigidaire. If you ever have any questions or need assistance with your dehumidifier, please don't hesitate to contact us through Live Chat at Frigidaire.ca or by calling 1-800-265-8352, Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. EST. We are always happy to help. - Maria

This one didn't break, yet
on June 2, 2026
Posted by: fstrdr14
I've had it for 3 years now and it didn't break. It's used in the basement, like my other ones, turned off in the winter and back on in the summer. When you turn them on, they don't start. This one has been good, plus I like the fact that it's connected. Hopefully a better product than other before it.

He frozen…
on June 1, 2026
Posted by: WheelSeb
The filter is frozen after two years…. This is the second one that's causing us this problem.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from frigidaire.caBy Reed, Online Outreach Specialist, June 2, 2026
Hi WheelSeb, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear that the filter has frozen again, especially since this is the second time you’ve encountered this issue with a unit. We understand how disappointing and frustrating that must be.

There are a few things you may want to check. Please make sure the air filter is clean and free of dust buildup, as restricted airflow can sometimes contribute to ice formation. It’s also a good idea to confirm that the air intake and exhaust areas are not blocked and that the temperature setting is not being run at the lowest setting for long periods of time. If the filter remains frozen after thawing and performing these checks, the unit may require further inspection.

We appreciate you sharing your concerns with us.

For additional assistance, please connect with us through Frigidaire.ca or by calling 1-800-265-8352, Monday - Friday, 8:30am – 8:30pm ET. We’ll be happy to assist further.
