I have been running this dehumidifier for a week now. My humidity gauge reads 38% but the dehumidifier reads a constant 50%. I have pre set it to 35% yet it continues to run indicating 50%. I am only getting about a quart of water after 10-11 hours.

I just purchased this model. Why would there be no auto shut off on this unit when desired humidity level is reached. Seems my only option is to continuously look until desired level reached then turn off manually

Is this meant for only one room or how many Square Ft. Does it service?

Asked by: jgh51
As indicated in the title, the LG PuriCare™ 50 Pint Dehumidifier has a dehumidification capacity of 50 pints per day. Dehumidifier capacity is rated by the amount of moisture removed in 24 hours, so a 50-pint humidifier is rated to remove 50 pints of moisture in one day. A dehumidifier's capacity loosely indicates how large of a space it will cover in square feet. Therefore, if you know the square footage of the area you'd like to dehumidify, you can get a loose idea of the capacity you will need. You will first need to measure the area where you want to operate the dehumidifier. Choosing a dehumidifier based on the size of your space and its capacity alone isn't enough. To find the absolute best solution, you'll also need to consider your room's conditions. In other words, You'll need to take the size of the space into account as well as the level of dampness. You can actually measure room humidity levels with a simple room humidity monitor or a humidity gauge, also known as a hygrometer. To find out the size of your room in square feet by measuring the length and width of your room and multiply them. A dehumidifier’s performance is greatly affected by both the size and humidity level of a particular area. A 50-pint Dehumidifier is recommended for a 500 sq. ft area that is very damp with a 70-80% Humidity level in which you have wet spots on the walls or floors. It is recommended for areas up to 2000 square feet that smell musty and feel damp all the time. These are places where you have experienced mold growth in the past or where moisture is visible on the walls...^IFV

Living in the tri-state area, humidity is a problem during spring/summer, dryness in fall/winter. I'm looking for a unit that can both dehumidify but equally add humidity to a room if it notices uncomfortable levels. Does this do that?

Asked by: The Jeffrey
The LG PuriCare™ 50* Pint Dehumidifier, Model # UD501KOG5 only dehumidifies, it does not humidify. You can adjust your desired humidity level in 5-percent increments from 30-80%. An indoor humidity level of 30 - 40% is recommended in the winter months and depending on your personal preferences, it may be even higher. If you need to add moisture to your room, you will need a large room humidifier. A humidifier will rapidly increase the moisture in the air and help maintain a comfortable level of humidity...^IFV

The auto defrost light came on and the temperature is not below 41degrees. Will the compressor come back on automatically when the light goes off?

Asked by: Clau47

Does this LG dehumidifer have a hook-up to use a garden hose to drain the water? Also will this dehumidifer shut off when the set humidity level is reached, and then turn back on when humidity goes back up?
