Answer This Question

A: If your dehumidifier is not collecting water, the appliance is not operating properly. For help with this situation, please review the support article titled: "Dehumidifier - Not Collecting Water" on the GE Appliances website.

Q:Range of temperatures, high and low dehumidifier will work. How large is bucket? Can pump be turned off forever?

by|Feb 26, 2024

2 Answers

Answer This Question

A: There is no pump on Model # ADEL50LZ. Your question was posted on Model # ADEL50LZ product page, just FYI.

by|Aug 31, 2024

A: Place the dehumidifier in an area where the temperature will not fall below 41 degrees F and (5 degrees C) or above 90 degrees F (32C). The coils can become covered with frost at temperatures below 41 degrees F, which may reduce performance. The bucket will hold approximately 2 gallons of water. As long as you don't have the hose connected you won't need to use the pump. When the hose is connected, water will go through it instead of running into the bucket. Note: The bucket must be securely in place for the dehumidifier to operate. The bucket must be in place regardless of what method you use to remove water collected by the dehumidifier.

A: Such an ambiguous response, never used to be like this. Disappointed. The “where was it manufactured” response above was hilariously deflective and posed the company to be American. Pardon me while i render my hand salute.

Completely junk. I’ve wasted better money

I’d give it less stars if I could. Worked for a week then didn’t ever again. Bucket has never seen a drop of water. Does not do anything but light up. Going with HOME LABS. I need a refund ASAP

We are so sorry to hear of your experience with this dehumidifier. We strongly encourage you to contact your retailer for replacement options.

Disappointed

My unit worked for two full summers and now this year the main panel does not function. I’m off switch. Turns the unit on and off makes the entire screen go dark, but the unit continues to run. I am very disappointed with this GE product and will probably never buy another.

We are sorry to hear about your control panel going out. We suggest trying a quick electronic reset. This can be done by removing the power cord for 30 seconds and then plugging it back in. If this doesn't work, we suggest getting in touch with our service team for support. You can do so by calling 1-800-432-2737 or by visiting this link here (https://www.geappliances.com/ge/service-and-support/service.htm).

Still going after a year of continuous use

I have a second home in South Georgia that I visit every other month. Needed something to run constantly to reduce mildew and mold. This helps tremendously. Have it set in the den with a drain hose. The house is 2300 square feet. I keep it at a relevant humidity setting of 40 and we have not had any mold or mildew issues since I purchased it in February of 2022. Keeps the entire house from smelling stale and stagnant.

Greetings – Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback with us regarding your dehumidifier! We’re thrilled that it is working so well for you. Thank you for choosing GE Appliances for your home and please let us know if you have additional questions. -Kacie@GEA GE_Appliances

This equipment was easy to set up, literally push button...

This equipment was easy to set up, literally push button and go. Immediately we could feel its efficacy and high capacity to dry up the air in our Minnesota basement. It is a beast and it is NOT too loud when compared to other units we have had. If you use it on your apt. or main floor well perhaps yes, but IMHO this is just the thing for avoiding humid basement during the snow melt. The standard hose connect eliminates the need to empty out the water collection bucket, so this has basically been running on auto-pilot since day one.

I'm happy with this purchase. It dried the basement out...

I'm happy with this purchase. It dried the basement out really quickly and efficiently. It's really quiet. It does not come with the drain hose. And it's plug doesn't stick right out. So it's only a slight challenge as I have 2 plugs like this and it's a little forced.

Replacing after 12 years!

I purchased the 50 pint model almost 12.5 years ago and it was going strong until recently (don't know exactly when it died, but within the last week). I live 200 feet from the river and our house was built in the 50's, so it ran pretty much continuously 9 months out of the year since April of 2010! Can't complain about that!

Lasted three years

This lasted three years. While it worked it was fine. This year it started running (the fan as least) but I started to get a musty smell in my basement and the humidity level was reading sixty percent (I set it at forty). Finally inspected the machine and found it totally dry inside. After giving up on it I tore it apart and found severe rusting by the coils. I don’t think something designed to be wet all the time should be rusting. I bought another dehumidifier but it wasn’t a GE.

Heats Room

I have owned a 70 pint GE humidifier for three years and decided to purchase two more for other areas of the home. Much to my surprise the 70 pint was no longer available but this model was reflected as the replacement. Thinking it would work similarly, if not the same as, the previous model I purchased two. These units have removed some moisture but have ended up raising the overall temperature in the entire house by 5 degrees, after running them in conjunction with our 4 portable a/c units for the entire day. My 70 pint model blows slightly warmer air than the room, however no where near the same heat as the two new models. When we reached out to GE customer service we were advised this is normal but they can be returned to the vendor, which I am sure will be another battle. Do yourself a favor and forgo purchasing these units as they act more as a heater than a dehumidifier.

Hi - Thank you for providing feedback on your new dehumidifiers. We are sorry to hear you are not happy with the performance of this model. Your opinion and first-hand experience is very important to us and we will gladly share this information with our product design team for future product consideration. We do wish you all the best!

Bought 3, all broken just outside of warranty!

I bought three GE "ADEL50LW" from Home Depot. No wonder it's not carried anymore. Do they change the model # as soon as enough bad reviews show up? All three worked well for about 6 months. Then the tanks started filling up despite the hose being firmly attached. I drilled a hole in the tank and installed my own hose! That worked well for about another 6 months or so. I made sure to clean the filters as recommended by the manual. Just outside of the warranty, all three are completely dead. Oh, they make a racket and use a lot of electricity, but not one drop of water taken out of the air. I will never buy a GE dehumidifier again and suggest you learn from my mistake.

Hi there, thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear about the issues that you've had with your dehumidifiers. We can understand how this would be frustrating. We would not recommend making adjustments to your appliance's physical or electronic makeup as this could void your warranty. We hope that we can work hard in the future to earn your trust back. We're always here should you have questions or concerns. Best wishes. -Michael@GEA GE_Appliances

Failed after 9 months of service - AVOID

I purchased this GE Dehumidifier about 20 months ago and have used it for a approximately 9 months of service. It recently stopped dehumidifying after a coupe months of beginning to struggle to reduce humidity. I could hear the tell-tale "cracking" noise of ice forming, indicating that it was low on Refrigerant. Then could hear the compressor cycle off while the unit would defrost. I took it apart and found that the evaporator coils were freezing up due to low Refrigerant. I sprayed bubble leak detector on the evaporator and could see 2 spots where it was leaking. I've posted a picture - where you see it foaming is where it is leaking. I'm beyond disappointed that GE would produce such a low quality product and then only warranty it for 12 months. Until GE steps up and addresses this issue, I would recommend you avoid purchasing a GE Dehumidifier. And Home Depot should take a look at what's going on and stop selling these products.
