Cadpxs Crawlspace Dehumidifier Remois XP145 (145 Pints, With Pump)

What is the actual moisture removal capacity of this dehumidifier?

The Cadpxs Remois XP145 removes up to 145 pints per day under saturation conditions (90°F/90% RH). Under more realistic AHAM standard conditions (80°F/60% RH), it removes 60 pints per day. At DOE test conditions (65°F/60% RH), the capacity is 38 pints per day. These varying ratings reflect different testing standards, with the AHAM rating being most representative of typical home conditions.

How does the built-in pump system work?

The integrated pump automatically removes collected water without manual intervention. It can lift water vertically up to 19.6 feet and comes with a 19.6-foot drain hose for flexible routing. The pump activates when the internal reservoir reaches capacity, continuously draining water to your chosen location such as a sink, floor drain, or outside area. This eliminates the need for manual tank emptying.

Can this dehumidifier be ceiling mounted?

Yes, the unit supports both floor and ceiling mounting installations. The compact 20.9 x 13.5 x 14.5 inch dimensions and 23.1kg weight make it suitable for ceiling installation in crawl spaces where floor space is limited. The built-in pump works effectively in either orientation, ensuring proper drainage regardless of mounting position.

What size area will this dehumidifier effectively cover?

This unit is rated for spaces up to 1,500 square feet. Coverage depends on factors like ceiling height, insulation, moisture sources and desired humidity levels. In well-sealed basements or crawl spaces, it can effectively manage humidity across the full 1,500 square feet. In areas with high moisture infiltration or poor sealing, effective coverage may be reduced.

How quiet is this dehumidifier during operation?

The unit operates at low noise levels suitable for occupied spaces. Customer reviews consistently mention quiet operation, with users noting it doesn't cause disturbance even during overnight use. The exact decibel rating isn't specified, but the design prioritises quiet operation whilst maintaining high performance, making it suitable for basements adjacent to living areas.

What maintenance does this dehumidifier require?

Regular maintenance includes cleaning the washable air filter periodically to maintain airflow efficiency. The metal casing can be wiped clean as needed. The pump system is self-maintaining under normal use. Check drain hose connections periodically to ensure proper water flow. The durable construction minimises maintenance requirements compared to residential-grade units.

Does this unit have automatic defrost capability?

Yes, the dehumidifier features automatic defrost functionality. This prevents ice buildup on the cooling coils when operating in cooler environments, ensuring consistent performance even when temperatures drop. The defrost cycle activates automatically when needed and resumes normal operation once complete, maintaining continuous humidity control without manual intervention.

What warranty and support comes with this dehumidifier?

The unit includes a 5-year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects and component failures. Cadpxs provides professional customer support to address any issues promptly. The unit is cETL safety certified, meeting strict industry standards for electrical safety and performance. Customer reviews highlight responsive support when replacement units were needed.
