A dehumidifier includes an evaporator, a condenser, a fan, and a processor. In response to determining that a measured relative humidity is greater than or equal to a relative humidity set point, the processor sets the dehumidifier to a first operating mode, wherein a compressor is enabled and the fan is set to a first fan speed while in the first operating mode. The processor further determines whether the dehumidifier has been operating in the first operating mode for a predetermined amount of time, and in response, sets the dehumidifier to a second operating mode if the measured relative humidity is still greater than the relative humidity set point, wherein the compressor is enabled and the fan is set to a second fan speed while in the second operating mode. The second fan speed is greater than the first fan speed.

Portable dehumidifier control system

A dehumidification system includes an evaporator, a condenser positioned proximate to the evaporator, and a drain pan. The drain pan is disposed at least partially below the evaporator and the condenser. The drain pan includes a top piece and a bottom piece disposed at least partially below the top piece. The top piece includes a drainage opening, and is configured to collect water condensed from the evaporator and drain the condensed water to the bottom piece via the drainage opening. The bottom piece includes an enclosed wall, and the condensed water drained from the top piece is directed into an area of the bottom piece that is at least partially surrounded by the enclosed wall.

Drainage system for a portable dehumidifier

A portable dehumidifier includes a cabinet, an evaporator, a condenser, a drain pan, multiple support legs, a compressor, and a fan. The cabinet includes an airflow inlet, an airflow outlet, and at least two wheels. The evaporator is located adjacent to the airflow inlet. The condenser is located adjacent to the evaporator and on a side of the evaporator opposite the airflow inlet. The drain pan is located at least partially below the evaporator and the condenser. The support legs extend from a bottom side of the drain pan towards the bottom side of the cabinet. The compressor is located below the drain pan. The fan is located adjacent to the condenser and on a side of the condenser opposite the evaporator.
