Dry big crawl spaces—fast, quiet, and ready to drain
- Removes 85 PPD @ AHAM / 180 PPD @ saturation to bring humidity under control quickly.
- Built‑in pump + gravity drain. Package includes a 19.6‑ft hose for pump mode and a 6.5‑ft hose for gravity—route water where you need it.
- Sized for up to ~2,300 sq ft crawl spaces and basements; ENERGY STAR® certified with IEF ~1.8 L/kWh.
Best for: basements, crawl spaces, storage, and mechanical rooms needing reliable, continuous dehumidification in a compact footprint.
In the Box & Installation
- Included: Galaxy 85P dehumidifier, MERV‑1 filter, 6.5‑ft gravity drain hose, 19.6‑ft pump hose, power cord, user guide.
- Install (quick): Place level (often elevated for gravity flow) → connect gravity or pump hose → choose %RH (typ. 45–55%) or GPP setpoint → run continuously; auto‑defrost manages cold starts.
Benefits
- Set‑and‑forget draining. Switch between gravity and pump on the control panel; the pump can lift to ~19.6 ft for flexible routing.
- Cold‑space ready. Auto‑defrost keeps the coil clear down to ~37.4°F so drying doesn’t stall in chilly crawl spaces.
- Compact & quiet. Only 21.3 × 11.7 × 14.1 in, 57.3 lb, and ≤55 dBA—easy to stage between joists.
- Low maintenance. Side‑sliding MERV‑1 prefilter, 194 CFM airflow, R32 refrigerant, cETL safety listing.
- Smart control choices. Run by %RH or GPP (grains per pound), with memory restart after power interruptions.
