Dehumidifier Technician Checklist

This checklist is helpful in prompting a technician to succesfully carry out the maintenance of a dehumidifier. Consistent maintenance of the Dehumidifiers is required to ensure the adequate functioning of the machine and the ability to effectively control the humidity in a building. This checklist provides the technician guidelines on how to thoroughly inspect and service the machine. This app guides a service technician through removing and cleaning the dehumidifier cabinet, removing and cleaning old air filters, or replacing them if necessary, checking drain connections and drain lines, ensuring the security of all hose connections, testing the compressor and fan while the dehumidifier works or runs, and providing an analysis and write-up to the customer so they are aware of humidity controls and operational guidelines. Having a properly functioning dehumidifier is crucial to controlling mold in a home, as well as providing respiratory relief for those with certain breathing problems. Using this app, along with basic other checks such as looking at the condensate pump, the condenser coils, and power cords for obvious problems, can extend the serviceable life of a dehumdification unit as a part of a building or home's overall heating and cooling system.
