The 70 Pint Moisture Medic DH I ordered happens to be made by AprilAire, so you’re sure of a quality product. To get it through my small crawlspace opening, I had to remove it’s feet. But with use of the AprilAire hang kit, the feet weren’t to be used anyway. Perhaps it might have been easier with two people getting the DH into the crawlspace and into position, but I ended up doing it all by myself. Just inside my crawlspace, I placed in a small dolly. Pulled the DH through the opening and onto the dolly. From there I was able to slowly wheel the Moisture Medic over the 6 mil ground cover into the place to be hung. I went the extra mile ordering the Moisture Medic with the 8620W AprilAire Wi-Fi Thermostat. In my case, this is also to be installed in the Crawlspace allowing monitoring and control from one’s iphone or Android. Upon installing the 8620W, it’s backlight would not come on. Called AprilAire and together we determined it was defective. Within a couple weeks a replacement was sent via Crawlspaserepair. Installed it and it worked fine. All working well and the savings by DIY is considerable.

Our new unit is currently installed and has been running for a week plus now in our newly encapsulated Crawlspace. The unit is extremely well built, quiet, and is pulling lots of moisture from under the house. We placed the discharge tube into a 5 gallon bucket outside our crawlspace. Every morning it is already overflowing so the unit is working well. We are very pleased with quality and the value we received. The mold remediation company wanted to charge $400 dollars more so we purchased the unit ourself. Thank you for the great deal and free shipping. The unit shipped the same day and arrived 3 days later. I will look forward to doing business again. Thank you!

After just a month, it's hard to judge durability or even quality. Still, the convenience of being able to monitor and control the dehumidifier that's in the crawlspace from inside the house is a big benefit. I do wish the setting levels could be set to an exact percent, but the convenience is great.

It was as advertised and easy to install. Hung it from the joist, plugged it in, dropped the tube into an existing drain and hit the switch. Lots of moisture so it is working hard but I hope to see a difference in a week or two.

The Moisture Medic is a great machine for an even better price with a five year guarantee. I had another brand "blow" the mother board during a power surge. The warrantee means a lot.



Crawl space users, ensure your drain hole through your house's foundation is horizontally lower than the total distance from the top of the unit to the unit's gravity-fed drain plug. I ended up with no space between the house's floor (above the unit) and the top of the unit.
