Product Overview
This 40-pint unit is designed to remove excess moisture from moderate-sized environments.
|
![]() |
With a top handle, caster wheels, and a light overall weight, the Soleus Air 40-pint CFM-40E Dehumidifier can be moved effortlessly from room to room for moderate dehumidifying tasks throughout your home or office. The unit includes an adjustable, built-in humidistat that features 3 humidity settings to give you flexibility in choosing the right level of humidity. Refrigeration technology that does not use ozone-damaging cholorofluorocarbon, or CFC refrigerants, makes this dehumidifier environmentally friendly and pollution-free.
Product Profile
Operating in a temperature range of 36 to 98 degrees Fahrenheit, the CFM40E excels as a year-round basement dehumidifier. Yet, it's portability, compactness, and effectiveness make it ideal for removing excess moisture from home and office rooms as well. The unit features a continuous water drainage port that allows you to automatically drain water from the collection tank instead of emptying it manually. Additionally, an auto-shutoff control naturally suspends dehumidifier operation when the tank reaches capacity to protect against water overflow. Complete product features include:
- 40-pint capacity
- Minimum operating temperature of 36 degrees F
- Automatic defrost function
- Built-in humidistat
- 3 humidity settings
- Manual and continuous drainage
- Tank control system
- Large capacity drainage tank
- 43-dB rating in "Quiet" mode
- Washable, permanent air filter
- Low power consumption
- Caster wheels
Selectable Power and Humidity Levels
The Soleus CFM-40E is equipped with a built-in humidistat that offers 3 humidity settings: 50%, 60%, and 70%. In default mode—the mode the unit automatically adjusts to when it's turned on—the dehumidifier runs continuously, no matter what the room humidity is. Upon reaching a relative humidity lower than the selected level, the dehumidifier stops running automatically. Three power levels including quiet, medium, and high allow you to control the unit's energy consumption and adjust its noise level.
Protection From Water Overflow
The dehumidifier features a 12.5-pint water collection tank with a tank control system that prevents overflow. A magnetic float level indicator included in the tank provides accurate water level readings. When the tank reaches capacity, a "Tank Full" indicator light will activate, and the unit will turn off automatically. Only after the tank is emptied manually can normal operation resume.
Automatic Gravity Drainage
The CFM-40E is equipped with a continuous drainage port that enables automatic gravity drainage. To activate, attach a commercial-grade hose with an inner diameter of 15 mm. to the port and position the hose downhill so that water can drain out using the force of gravity.
Low Noise Level
Caster wheels make it easy to move the unit room to room. Additionally, operating the dehumidifier in "Quiet" mode reduces its overall noise level to 43 decibels. This is roughly equivalent to the sound of raindrops.

Soleus Air CFM-40E Dehumidifier
Reviewed by: Marge on 2008-06-20
We ordered a Soleus Air CFM-40E dehumidifier on line, and it arrived exactly on the date it was promised. It arrived in good condition, and we immediately put it to use in our basement. First of all, we were impressed with the appearance of the unit and simplicity of operation. It is smaller in size than any other dehumidifier we have ever had but does a better more efficient job of removing excess humidity. The handle on top is a nice feature which makes it easy to move the dehumidifier around to different areas of the room. We like the window indicator which shows how much water is in the tank. We then can get an idea of how much water is being taken out of the air and when it is full enough to empty before it turns off.
We cannot believe how quiet it is when running--it sounds as though it is a quiet fan rather than a dehumidifier. With our previous dehumidifier, as soon as we opened the door at the top of the basement stairs, we could hear it running. With the Soleus, we have to walk down to the bottom of the stairs in order to hear it running. We can actually watch tv in the same room as the dehumidifier and are able to hear the tv without a problem. Prior to owning the Soleus, we had to turn our old dehumidifier off in order to watch tv.
If this product continues to perform the way it does now, I would definitely buy another one, and I will recommend it to others.
