How we picked
This guide covers the 4 dehumidifiers in the pool whose listing titles say LGR, the low grain refrigerant kind. The picks are ranked first by the capacity group the title prints, from 150 pints or more down to 100 to 149 pints, then by the number of other details each title states (area, pump, drain hose, whole house, commercial, basement, crawl space, small room, Energy Star, Wi-Fi or app), then by the order in the pool file. The ALORAIR 170 PPD listing states a pump, a drain hose and a commercial use, giving it 3 other details, the most here. The Dri-Eaz 2800i title prints 130 pints per day, placing it last. All 4 listings name a pump and a commercial use.
How to choose
Pints per day: reading the figure in a title
The pints-per-day figure is the seller's label, printed in the listing title. In this pool, 2 of the 4 titles print 150 pints or more, 1 prints 130 pints per day, and 1 prints no figure at all. The ENERGY STAR and DOE pages explain how capacity is stated and how the measuring standard changed in recent years; the figure in a title is not a measured result in any home.
Pump, drain hose or bucket
Every listing in this pool states that a pump comes with the unit. Only 1 of the 4 titles also names a drain hose. When a title does not state a drain hose, the listing does not tell you whether one is included; the maker's page is the place to read about water removal options.
Floor area figures as the seller's own
None of the 4 LGR listings in this pool prints a square-foot figure. A floor area in a title is the seller's own number, and this guide never adds areas or treats a figure as coverage of a space. If a floor area matters to you, look for a listing that states one.
LGR, compressor and desiccant as title words
LGR stands for low grain refrigerant, a kind of dehumidifier named in the title. This guide covers only listings whose titles say LGR. The catalogue does not say how LGR compares with compressor or desiccant kinds in any space; the word is a listing detail, nothing more.
Commercial grade as a listing word
All 4 titles in this pool name a commercial use. That word is the seller's own; this guide does not say a unit meets a code, a restoration job or a business requirement. The title states the word, and the review reads it as a stated detail.
What this review leaves out (and why)
The catalogue holds no measured moisture removal, noise, energy use, power draw, tank size, hose length, operating temperature, filter, weight or dimensions. This guide compares the 4 picks only on the details their titles state: capacity group, pump, drain hose, commercial, basement and crawl space words. For anything else, the maker's page and the official pages in the sources are the place to read.
Questions
What does LGR mean in a dehumidifier title?
LGR stands for low grain refrigerant, a kind of dehumidifier named in the listing title. This guide covers only listings whose titles say LGR. The catalogue does not say how LGR performs in any space or temperature; the word is a stated detail of the listing, and the maker's page is where to read what the maker says about it.
Does this review cover moisture removal, noise, energy use or mold?
No. This review does not cover measured moisture removal, noise, energy use, power draw, tank size, hose length or any health or mold outcome. The catalogue has no data for those. The maker's page and the official pages in the sources, such as the EPA mold pages and the CDC mold page, are where to read about them.
Why do some titles print different pint figures for similar units?
The pints-per-day figure is the seller's label, and the measuring standard behind it changed in recent years. The ENERGY STAR and DOE pages explain how capacity is stated and how the measurement procedure changed, which is why one unit can carry two different pint figures. This guide reads the figure the title prints and never converts it.
Do all LGR dehumidifiers come with a pump?
In this pool, all 4 listings state that a pump comes with the unit. That is a detail of these particular titles, not a rule for every LGR dehumidifier. Only 1 of the 4 titles also names a drain hose. When a title does not state a drain hose, the listing does not tell you whether one is included.
Can a dehumidifier prevent mold in a basement?
This guide gives no health or mold advice. The EPA and CDC mold pages explain that the key to mold control is moisture control, and the CDC page mentions that an air conditioner or dehumidifier can help keep humidity levels low. Read those official pages for guidance; this review only compares listings on stated details.
