Questions? Call Toll Free (866) 764-9900 Aprilaire High Capacity Basement & Crawlspace Dehumidifier. Removes up to 90 pints / day. Free Indoor Digital Hygrothermometer included with each 1710 Dehumidifier The ultra-quiet Aprilaire High Capacity Basement & Crawlspace Dehumidifier is the newest, best solution to humidity problems in your basement. The 1710 is easy to install - and does not have to be connected via ductwork to your HVAC system. Excess humidity in the air can cause basements to be smelly, musty and noticeably damp. Nobody wants to go there, play there, be there. Excess humidity can damage basement furniture and furnishings, cause wood to swell and fabric to rot. Stored items grow mildew and wall paneling peels. High basement humidity can lead to health threatening conditions too. Any basement with relative humidity regularly above 60% can become the perfect breeding ground for a variety of pathogens like mold, mildew and fungi. Common portable dehumidifiers are a weak answer! Off-the-shelf portable dehumidifiers don't perform well in cooler basement environments and you typically need more than one to treat your entire basement. The solution is a dehumidifier designed exclusively for basement use - the Aprilaire 1710 High Capacity Dehumidifier. More than your standard portable unit, the Model 1710 High Capacity Dehumidifier is in a different class altogether. It provides 100% more capacity, and 300% more efficient operation than the leading portable dehumidifier. The Aprilaire Model 1710 Whole-House Dehumidifier works throughout your entire home. It’s Energy Star® rated, removing 50% more water per kilowatt hour than leading portable dehumidifiers. The Model 1710 also features truly automatic control, so there’s never a need to manually control the dehumidifier — just set it once and forget it! The best choice for healthy, comfortable air is the Model 1710 Whole-House Dehumidifier installed in your basement or crawl. The benefits and results speak for themselves: Provides three times the moisture removing capacity of leading portable dehumidifiers—up to 90 pints or 11.25 gallons per day Has no tank to empty - unit can be attached to home's water drainage system with 1" PVC pipe. Can also be gravity drained into floor drain or sump pit. Can use optional condensate pump to pump water up to a sink. Click here for more info on condensate drainage.

Comments about Aprilaire Aprilaire 1710 High Capacity Free Standing Basement / Crawlspace Dehumidifier:

- Very damp, stone "pittsburgh" basement with musty odors
- turned it on and set it to a high setting and let it do its thing
- for almost two weeks it ran 24/7 there was a constant drainage of water - goodness only knows how much it sucked out of the walls
- have had product for about 3 weeks - it is now cycling on and off and I cannot describe the difference in the smell and feel of the basement

very good product so far...

Comments about Aprilaire Aprilaire 1710 High Capacity Free Standing Basement / Crawlspace Dehumidifier:

Using in damp unfinished basement. Been in use about three weeks. Was using LG 35 pint humidifier, replaced with this unit. Single setting results in 15 point spread in RH on a daily basis. No way to set to a specfic RH. With this more powerful unit, expected it to run less to maintain RH. This unit runs as much a cheaper unit, if not more. LG unit was $200, had RH set for auto operation, and energy star certified. At this point I'm disappointed in this unit's performance based on the price I paid for it (over [$]).

Comments about Aprilaire Aprilaire 1710 High Capacity Free Standing Basement / Crawlspace Dehumidifier:

We are remodeling an Alaska WWII Army bunker and use the dehumdifier in the shop area. It works great at higher room temperatures. Currently we are keeping the day time temperature about 62 degrees F. The scale in the owner's manual doesn't even go that low of temperature. The dehumidifier seems to work better if we have it warmer than that.
