Can you clean a dehumidifier, I wondered as I starred at the shocking sight before me. The Frigidaire dehumidifier, model number FAD504DWD, in my workshop needed a serious cleaning after the coils clogged up with dust, hair, mold, and zooglea slime. In this video, I show how I cleaned the unit inside and out with soap and water in order to save money on a replacement. It was purchased new over 10 years ago and had never been inspected or deep cleaned. Only washed the bucket and filter periodically. Besides developing a bad smell, the dehumidifier was not collecting water as it should, and it was also getting to hot. Cleaning the coils, bucket, and filter fixed the problem and it's performance was restored. I then custom cut a pre filter and installed it to help prevent this problem from happening again. I show that custom made filter towards the end of the video. I believe the Frigidaire dehumidifier model number FAD504DWD has been discontinued or at least it's getting hard to find. The unit shown in the video is still working as of January 2024. But it will need replacement some day. I can no longer find the filter material used in the video, but I included a link to another filter material. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
