Soleus Dehumidifiers

We constantly see new brands of dehumidifiers making it on the market straight out of China with the strategy of producing dehumidifiers at the lowest possible price point. Soleus dehumidifiers are the exact opposite. Although the company that owns Soleus claims that they produce "low price" dehumidifiers, when you look at the price compared to other dehumidifiers on the market you are essentially paying about the same price as every other quality dehumidifier company. However, Soleus has a lot more to offer than just some random no-name company who will go out of business before your warranty is even up. Soleus dehumidifiers are well known for their durability and efficiency, and are not known as cheap dehumidifiers when it comes to quality unlike some other brands.

In fact, our second best selling dehumidifier as of the writing of this article is called the Soleus Air CFM-40 E 40-Pint Dehumidifier with Humidistat and has remained in the top 3 best selling spots for almost a year and a half now. In addition, this is our best selling dehumidifier of any dehumidifier that is not a 70-pint dehumidifier.

Typically buyers who read our product descriptions either pick a Frigidaire dehumidifier or a Soleus dehumidifiers because they are typically the best known for a reasonable combination of price, quality, and warranty. Soleus generally backs their products with a one year full warranty and a 3 year limited warranty. At one point Soleus was even offering a 5 year warranty so they may go back to offering that deal again. If not, there are services out there that will insure your purchase as $200 can be quite a bit of money to spend on an appliance. However, Soleus is a pretty good place to put your $200 because it will typically last longer than some of these random brands that you see at Walmart trying to sell at the lowest possible price.

Soleus dehumidifiers generally provide all the features you expect from a modern dehumidifier including digital controls, a full valve that shuts the dehumidifier off when it gets too full, and an automatic shut off valve to prevent from overheating. Additionally, some come with anti-freezing technologies for those who plan on using their dehumidifier in sub-freezing temperatures.

The one thing that makes these dehumidifiers stand out compared to other brands is that Soleus dehumidifiers have a sense of style that is lacking in other dehumidifiers. If you are stuck between choosing a Frigidaire and a Soleus since these are typically the most popular models, many people choose to go with the Soleus for looks alone. With a Frigidaire and most other dehumidifiers you are going to get a very classic dehumidifier look which is generally square with a variety of entrance points to absorb the most moisture possible. Although Soleus still designs their dehumidifiers with moisture absorbtion in mind, they are able to craft their dehumidifiers with a style all their own. Some models have rounded edges with a large digital display that brings the look into the new century. Other dehumidifiers that they produce actually have a very light blue design that make them really stand out. In addition, they offer a model with ultra violet light that helps clean the air as it dehumidifies the air. They also use a technology on their filters that allow them to be hand washed which saves you a bunch of money as you do not have to buy new filters when you buy a Soleus.

One of the few downsides to buying a Soleus is that not all their models are energy star certified. This generally means that they use a bit more electricity than their counterparts. However, this is balanced out by a good trait that they have much strong dehumidification power than their competitors as well. Unfortunately, you cannot have both energy efficiency and strong dehumidification power so Soleus is generally for those who are either trying to dehumidify a large area or those that have a serious moisture problem. There are additional alternatives if you are looking to dehumidify very small spaces that may better suit your needs such as mini-dehumidifiers by Eva-Dry. But if you are looking to dehumidify more than 500 square feet or if you have ever had a moisture problem in your house, then a Soleus dehumidifier is going to be a much better choice than a mini-dehumidifier or even a smaller model.

Soleus only produces mid to large sized dehumidifiers which means that they are ultra-specialized in what they do. This generally gives them a better sense of quality than those dehumidifiers that are made in a factory with a bunch of other purposes. Soleus has gotten quite good at their production of home dehumidifiers so this is definitely one of the recommended brands to choose if you are looking for a dehumidifier that falls into a mid-size home dehumidifier category.

Soleus also uses technology that drastically reduces noise which is why many people choose Soleus over other brands. Although this depends on the model, some of their products are actually the quietest available in the 40 to 70-pint range.

Buying a Soleus dehumidifier is generally a good idea if you are looking to buy a dehumidifier that is going to last you a while for your basement or to dehumidify an entire floor. They are also a good choice if you are looking to combat an already existing moisture problem. However, these dehumidifiers may not be a good choice if you are only looking to dehumidify a bathroom or a small space. As long as you are using them for one of the first two reasons, Soleus is a great brand to choose.
