Overview

A homeowner dealing with a damp basement, sealed crawl space or whole-home humidity gets a complete bundle kit here, built around an Aprilaire E070 with continuous draining. It cycles itself on and off automatically according to a humidity target.

Capacity, an Energy Star recognition and a kit that includes the extras to get started are the reasons to buy, with a five-year warranty. The limits are that installation is not described and that the spec table shows tank and speed figures that look inconsistent, so rely on the capacity and airflow numbers.

Who it's for

A large damp space or an entire home with a high moisture load suits this kit, including the commercial spaces the listing mentions. Small rooms, and buyers who want a simple portable unit, should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • High daily capacity
  • Large stated coverage
  • Kit includes hose, risers and filters
  • Automatic defrost and shutoff
Cons
  • Installation steps not listed
  • Spec table has inconsistent figures
  • Heavy to lift into place

Performance notes

Humidity control follows a relative humidity set point, so the unit starts and stops by itself as moisture rises and falls. Capacity and airflow govern how fast a damp space is dried, while continuous draining removes the need to empty a tank. Automatic defrost lets it continue working in cooler spaces.
