We really like this unit except that the cover on the top rattles unless we put a heavy object on it.

Comments about Thermastor Santa Fe RX High Efficiency Dehumidifier (4023673):
I use the product for whole house humidity control.It does this job very well. Very quiet,economical flawless operation. The top cover is somewhat difficult to remove and replace. this is important because the only controls to operate the unit are located under the cover. Because the top cover is difficult to remove and replace, I leave it off the unit, which is not very convenient and detracts from the overall appeal of the unit.I would also like to see an on off switch to completely shut the unit off. There are times when I would like to completely shut off the unit, and the only way to do that is to pull out the plug.This is a problem because with the plug removed the pump does not work and water will sometimes over flow the collection pan. An LED or LCD display showing humidity percentage and controls mounted on the exterior of the unit that could be accessed without taking off the cover would really be nice.
Comments about Thermastor Santa Fe RX High Efficiency Dehumidifier (4023673):
Small hardware store units ran constantly and still couldn't do the job. Mold was growing in the bath/laundry/bedroom areas and the boys couldn't sleep in the stuffy dampness of this semi-raised basement. This did the job! Big improvement right away. Because of its capacity, it is larger, heavier and noisier than little home units, but it does not need to run constantly like they did. It is also a great allergy reducer.

Great product! We run this in our damp basement and the mold smell has been completely eliminated. I am allergic to mold - so this is very important to me. We also purchased the optional HEPA filter and notice a significant difference in the freshness of the basement.

Althoug this unit is relatively expensive, its worth every penny! No more damp basement!
Comments about Thermastor Santa Fe RX High Efficiency Dehumidifier (4023673):
There is no manual or even a sheet of paper describing the system included - it would be nice to know something about the machine, including filter life time. The promised Hygrothermometer was never sent by the manufacturer after I sent in the registration. [...]tomers.

We have two. A Santa Fe bought 2000 and an Rx bought 2007. Both are working well - no problems. We did vacuum the dust from the heat exchanger of the older unit in 2006. No other maintenance was ever required. We bought the Rx for our vacation place. Much quieter - can be used inside the house.
Unfortunately the lack of competition and the excellent build quality (made in the USA) make it expensive.
