Outstanding video! As a fellow DIY homeowner with a crawl space with high humidity, I have a need for such a unit. I just pulled the trigger and ordered the Sentinel HDi65s to replace a DriEaz crawl space dehumidifier that lasted 10+ years. That unit is discontinued and their new replacement was approximately twice the price of this HDi65s with lower review ratings. I had a few questions in my mind about this unit and you literally answered ALL of them! Thanks for this outstanding video!
+@nicholasferriero6442 you’re welcome! 🍻
I put one like this in my garage, keeps the M3 nice and dry while waiting to go out in nice weather.
+Bob Fognozzle nice!
Did you seal your vents too? Without sealing it seems like a losing battle to continuously dehumidify circulating air that would run the electric bill way up.
+@tadmccalister2234 yes I mentioned that and also have a separate video on it
Here in upper South Carolina we have Duke Energy but specifically in my neighborhood, the local monopolies won and it's a middle man called Blue Ridge. Same provider (Duke Energy), increased costs, worse net metering, worse peak pricing so that they make sure to profit -___- Made dehumidifying my basement impractical since with peak costs was approaching $550 in the summer months per month. Nice vid tho
+RuslanVideoFilms wow! Crazy
Thanks for the review. Any updates on the alorair after 6 months? Thanks again.
+@Ransomed77 still working well 🍻
@@HelpMeDIY Thanks
Hi, thanks for the information. Looking to also get a dehumidifier for my crawl space 80% RH. Looks like it has been about 1 month since you posted the video. Can you please let me know if the humidity ever come down to 60 %? That's.
+AV Electronic sure did!
@@HelpMeDIY thanks. Going to get it then. Since encapsulation cost upward of 15k. I have sealed all the vents and installed 1 exhaust fan to prevent Radon gas from the soil.
I have about 3 to 4 feet of crawlspace under my home. Square footage is about 1900sqft. Will this model be large enough to take care of the humidity problem?
+@bradtaylor301 well mine is a lot bigger and it seems to be doing a good job for me, so I would say yes.
So I don't really need the "gravity" hose if I just use the pump drain hose? Then I can just run the pump hose outside? Am i understanding this correctly?
+@bradtaylor301 that’s correct
And OBTW….. you might consider 4 in. Dia drain pipes at your downspouts to get water away from your foundation…about 5 feet should be good.
I was thinking the same thing!
Just purchased this brand new and it’s been running for about two weeks straight but has yet to pump water. I have the pump drain connected and have tried to press the drain button but still nothing. Do you know what would cause this?
+@sabsanddad something isn’t right. I’d call their tech support
I would recommend a piece of pipe on the outside to direct the water away from the foundation…..about 5 feet should be enough.
+Bob Fognozzle these is actually drainage all around the exterior underground so hopefully that handles it well 🤷♂️
I am sorry for being so ignorant but I have another question. I don't have any standing water issues under my house, but I do have humidity issues which cause mold. Is all I need to do is have the hose connected that moves the condensation caused from the humid conditions, from under the house to the outside? Sorry about the crappy sentence structure. :)
+@bradtaylor301 yes!
I can barely crawl in my crawlspace, jesus is yours huge
+Jacob Smith 😆
Are you happy with this unit?
+@jonathanritter7364 yes I am! 🍻
*I would think they at least put a vapor barrier under the slab.*
+@EdA-bz3bu let’s hope 😆
