Key Features and Benefits of the Whirlpool 50 Pint Energy Star Dehumidifier

  • Large Removal Capacity: Extracts up to 50 pints of water per day, making it an efficient choice for bedrooms, basements, and living areas up to 1,200 square feet.
  • Energy Star Efficiency: Runs efficiently and effectively with an Energy Star 6.0 certification and a 2.01 liters per kWh integrated energy factor.
  • Digital Humidistat: Set precise humidity targets between 35 and 80 percent RH, view real-time readings, and program the 24-hour timer from an easy-to-read control screen.
  • Quiet Operation: Operates quietly between 43 dB and 47 dB (about the noise level of a conversation), allowing you to dry without causing disruptions.
  • Collection Tank: These models feature an 18-pint (No pump) or 14-pint (With pump) condensate tank. They can also be connected to a standard garden hose for continuous, low-level draining.
  • Low-Temp Operation: Automatically defrosts the coils down to 41 degrees F, so crawl spaces and unheated rooms stay protected year-round.
  • Full-Tank Alert: An audible alarm, indicator light, and auto shut-off prevent accidental spills when the bucket reaches capacity.
  • Washable Filter: Remove, rinse, and reinstall the filter in seconds to maintain strong airflow and reduce particulate buildup.
  • Portable Design: Integrated handles and caster wheels let you reposition the 30.8-pound dehumidifier without heavy lifting.
  • Auto Restart: The system remembers your last settings and resumes operation automatically when power dies, minimizing downtime in critical spaces.

Built-in pump advantage

Continuous drainage is especially helpful if you want set-it-and-forget-it dehumidifier performance. If you're dehumidifying a basement, crawl space, or another hard-to-reach space, the Whirlpool 50 Pint Energy Star Dehumidifier with Optional Pump lifts collected water up to 16 feet through a standard garden hose connection. This feature lets you route condensate to a sink, window, or plumbing line. Whether you choose the pump or gravity drain model, the sealed connection minimizes leaks and keeps the surrounding area clean.

Sylvane’s Expert Take

The Whirlpool 50 Pint Energy Star Dehumidifier delivers dependable moisture removal, straightforward controls, and flexible drainage, with an optional pump model. Energy-saving performance, low-temperature operation, and a large collection tank cover day-to-day needs, while the optional pump model offers hands-free convenience when gravity drainage is not an option. For customers who need an efficient, user-friendly dehumidifier that adapts to various installation scenarios, this model checks every critical box.
