But when you have a bigger space to dehumidify you can install a gravity drain hose so the Soleus Air dp2-70e-03 will dispose of the water itself continuously. But what if you do not have a floor drain around in the room itself. Then comes in and very handy the included electrical pump. This pump is attached to the gravity drain hose and will dispose of the water by pumping it up to a drain on a higher level. This is a perfect solution for a basement for example. The pump can dispose of 300 pints or 140 liters a day. It can pump the water to a height of about 16 ft.

On the operations panel an indicator light will show when it is time to wash the filter. Cleaning the unit and bucket can easily be done with a mild detergent.

If you care less about looks but want a great solution for humidity issues then the Soleus Air dp2-70e-03 is what you should want. It has huge capacity of 70 pint a day and runs very quietly. It has several indicators to make operation easy and user friendly. And for more convenience it comes with an electrical drainage pump so you can use it even in basements without floor drain.
