Info & Guides

Description

One of the most energy-efficient residential dehumidifiers on the market, the American-engineered and assembled Santa Fe Classic Dehumidifier 4044710 eliminates moisture and humidity problems in large basements and crawl spaces. The Classic removes 116 pints of moisture per day under AHAM conditions (80 degrees F at 60 percent RH) and approximately 220 pints at saturation (100 percent relative humidity).

 

Simple Set Up 

In many applications, the Santa Fe Classic dehumidifier requires virtually no assembly. Simply plug it into a standard 15-amp, 115-volt grounded outlet, attach the supplied drain hose, and route it to a nearby floor drain.

Efficient Moisture Removal

Santa Fe dehumidifiers are known for efficient operation for years of use. The Santa Fe Classic is constructed with a more efficient compressor, refrigerator coils, and an internal fan — and uses Santa Fe's efficiency-boosting pre-cooling technology.

As a result, it dehumidifies at a higher energy factor than comparable models of the same capacity (5.9 pints/kWh).

Ideal Spaces for Use

Use the Santa Fe Classic in a large basement or crawl space for optimal performance. Use these guidelines from Santa Fe on your space sizing: 

  • Up to 2,900 square feet in tightly sealed areas.
  • Up to 2,700 square feet in moderately-sealed areas.
  • Up to 2,500 square feet in areas with a few leaks and imperfections.

Upgraded 6-Year Warranty 

Manufacturers have announced that Santa Fe dehumidifiers now have an upgraded warranty that guarantees performance and customer satisfaction for up to six years. 

This industry-leading “Peace of Mind” warranty covers all Santa Fe dehumidifiers manufactured after January 1, 2024, with a 5-year warranty against operational failures and a 6-year warranty for faulty components.

In the unlikely event of a unit breakdown, Santa Fe will either replace or repair the affected unit. However, customers should consult their Owner’s Manual for detailed information about their warranty’s terms and conditions.

Optional Ducting Kit

An optional collar duct kit and ducting accessories are also available. You might prefer to duct your dehumidifier if standalone operation is impractical. Popular ducting options include:

  • Duct multiple rooms to allow air to flow easily back and forth between them
  • Duct the air from one room and direct it to discharge into another nearby room
  • Run ductwork to the edges of a crawl space to force air circulation

Additional Features

  • Simple Controls: Easily adjust the knob to set your ideal humidity level and control fan operation with a single switch.
  • Air Filtration: A pleated MERV 13 filter ensures efficient dehumidifying, protects the dehumidifier's internal components, and captures irritating allergens. You can find replacement MERV 13 filters here.
  • Auto Defrost: The Santa Fe Classic operates successfully in temperatures down to 55 degrees F. If frost forms on the internal components, an automatic defrost system shuts off operation and quickly melts the frost so the unit can resume regular operation.
  • Quiet Operation: From 6 feet away, the Santa Fe Classic has a sound level of 58 to 62 dB, equivalent to a normal conversation.
  • Automatic Restart: After a power outage, it reverts to your previous settings.
  • Smooth-Roll Casters: Four smooth-rolling casters make moving the dehumidifier from space to space easy.
  • R-454B Refrigerant: The Santa Fe Classic now uses R-454B refrigerant, which is more energy-efficient and environmentally safe than previous formulations. 

What Customers Love

  • Superior Efficiency: The Classic removes more moisture per kilowatt hour than many conventional residential dehumidifiers at the same or an even lower operating cost. 

  • Reliable Long Life: Solid internal construction and a heavy-duty cabinet contribute to years of reliable moisture control.

  • Independent Fan Control: An independent fan switch allows you to run the fan continuously for better distribution of dehumidified air or only when the compressor is running.

Things To Consider

  • Size: This model measures 36 inches high by 20 inches wide and 17 inches deep. For areas with limited space, consider the Santa Fe Compact70.

Sylvane's Expert Take

The Santa Fe Classic Dehumidifier removes up to 110 pints of moisture daily while maintaining exceptional energy efficiency in large basements and crawl spaces. Its robust construction and newly upgraded 6-year warranty provide long-term peace of mind for anyone seeking reliable humidity control.

  • Consider Regular Checks: Consider adding periodic air filter checks and cleanings to maintain peak efficiency, reduce allergen buildup, and prolong the unit’s lifespan.
  • Optional Basement Package: Since this dehumidifier is excellent for basement applications, customers should seriously consider Sylvane's exclusive basement package, including an Acu-Rite Remote sensor and Santa Fe external condensate pump.

Reviews Summary
Customers say this dehumidifier effectively controls moisture in large spaces like basements and warehouses. Many report significant humidity reduction within days of installation. While most praise its performance and ease of setup, some note recent models are louder than previous versions. Repeat buyers frequently mention their first units lasting 10-20 years, though several report shorter lifespans of 2-6 years with newer models. Common feedback includes quick humidity reduction from 60-70% to 40-50% range. While the unit receives praise for its effectiveness, some users express concerns about limited repair options and refrigerant leaks after warranty expiration.

    I would buy this product again

    I have a large basement and this unit does a great job of drawing the dampness out of the air in the whole basement. This is the second Santa Fe dehumidifier i have owed. I purchase the first one over 20 years ago an just recently had to replace it. Great product1 I highly recommend it!

    Strong Dehumidifier Performance

    This unit does a great job of keeping my basement dry. Easy to set up and works well with optional ductwork I set up to manage air flow to and from the unit.

    We will

    So far we have installed several of these for a client who owns a number of properties. We have put together a package for each property, with more anticipated, that meet the needs of various floor plans with significant improvement in air quality etc.

    Yes, I would make the purchase all over again!

    I use this Santa Fe Classic to supplement my AC. As humid as it has been--and still is, here in eastern Kansas--I need the Classic. It does an excellent job. The sales person was very helpful, the price was less than shown; it came when it was supposed to. I am very happy with the purchase.
