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.

I’ve only had my moisture medic a week but have been impressed with its performance so far. I can’t really rate durability yet. The extra filter that came with it was damaged during shipping and with a quick phone call to their friendly associate I had a replacement coming right away at no charge. Customer service was excellent. I’d highly recommend them and their product.

Just installed the dehumidifier. Quite simple to do, then plunged it in to an outlet nearby and done. Saved about $ 1,500 by doing it myself, spending about 4 hours total for the installation and building the shelf it is now sitting on.

It would have been convenient, if the control panel was at the outlet end. The unit will typically be installed close to the entrance to the crawlspace, and adding a duct to have suction near the center of the crawlspace. With the control unit in the opposite end, the display can be seen without have to crawl around the unit.

The quality seems very good, but ask me in 10 years.

I’ve only had the moisture medic for several weeks so I can’t speak on how long it will last, but as far as I can tell it’s built very well. Craw space went from 70% humidity to 55% within 2 days. I will definitely be installing this same unit on our future jobs.

<p>I can’t comment on product durability, because it was just installed. But overall impressed with entire experience. Packaged very well, and very easy to install using the hanging kit. Was able to install without any assistance.</p>
