Control Humidity and prevent mold and mildew growth with the Comfort-Aire 20 Pint Portable Cube Dehumidifier BCD-20A. This easily portable and compact dehumidifier for basement use helps to save space thanks to its minimal cube design. Capable of covering areas like bedrooms, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and basements up to 1,500 square feet.
Equipped with a 25-pint 3-Gallon Water Tank, the Comfort-Aire whole house dehumidifier can remove up to 20 pints of moisture per day. This large and unique water tank enables the rest of the dehumidifier to nest inside it, helping to save space during storage. In addition, the 25-pint tank boasts two side handles and a carrying handle to make removing and emptying it much easier.
The Continuous Drainage capable Comfort-Aire BCD-20A Dehumidifier is an ideal basement dehumidifier. Thanks to this feature, you can use a drainage hose (not included) to drain into a secondary location continuously. When in bucketless mode, water can be drained directly to another location with a drainage hose (not included). Ensure the hose is properly connected and the opposite end empties into a drain or other location with the right capacity, like a sink or basin. Make sure the unit is properly placed on a flat surface and that the hose height is lower to avoid water backflow and ensure smooth drainage. In order to exit bucketless mode simply press the "FILL LEVEL" and "UP" button to exit and then turn off the power. This includes gravity-driven drainage into a sink, window, or drain without the need to empty the bucket or stop the operation manually.
Help yourself and the environment with this Energy StarĀ® Certified home dehumidifier. The renowned Energy StarĀ® rating by the EPA ensures this dehumidifier uses at least 10% less energy than other comparable models. In addition to helping you reduce your monthly energy bill, it can also help save the environment by producing less emissions.
Storing and moving this small dehumidifier couldnāt be easier with its Compact & Portable cube design. It boasts a unique feature that allows the bulk of the unit to nest inside the tank when not in use. This helps make storage a breeze, while four gliding caster wheels make the unit easily portable from room to room.
Control your dehumidifier from the palm of your hand thanks to Remote Operation with the NetHome Plus smartphone app. Within this app, you can control your dehumidifier, adjust settings, and monitor air filter status, water levels, and more. Here, you are able to access all the same features and functions as the on-unit control panel, but from anywhere you want.
Located at the top of the unit, the LED Digital Display control panel is simple to use. It features an on/off button, fan speeds low/high, an adjustable humidity range between 35% and 85%, a programmable 24-hour timer, and three intelligent modes. These modes include smart mode, max mode, and continuous mode for even more added convenience.
Three Automatic Functions help you to set your dehumidifier and forget about it. The first is the automatic defrost feature, which temporarily turns the compressor off until the coils are defrosted. Next is the automatic restart feature, which remembers and resumes previous settings after a power outage or interruption occurs. Last is the automatic shutoff feature, which turns the unit off for safety once the water level becomes full.

Bucketless Mode (only on some models):
- The dehumidifier can be used without the bucket when the unit is in bucketless mode
- The unit will not remind you when the bucket is full when in this mode
- Check whether the drainage tube (not included) is properly connected beforehand
- The overall height of the tube should be lower than the drain to avoid water backflow and ensure smooth discharge
- Place the end of the hose into the drain area or the container to catch the water
- Link the other end of the tube to a place with unlimited drainage capacity, such as a sink or a basin
- Do not place the other end of the tube in a container with limited capacity, otherwise the water may overflow to the floor
- To exit the bucketless mode: press FILL LEVEL and up to exit, then turn off the power
- Make sure the unit is placed on a flat, horizontal table to prevent toppling and sliding - the tilt angle needs to be less than 1 degree
- When in bucketless mode, if the switch on the back of the unit (the micro switch) is pushed, the unit will exit this mode
- The unit should not be moved while it's working, first turn off the power and remove the plug
NOTE: It may cause an unexpected exit from the bucketless mode when the tank float touches the micro switch (at the bottom back of the unit). So please check whether the bottom of the unit is clear under the bucketless mode.
