Default Faulty dehumidifier


"Lobster" wrote in message
m...
I have a portable dehumidifier (Wickes own brand; I think it's a
compressor model?) about 18 months old which has stopped working.

The humidistat appears to be working in that if you turn it up, it clicks
in and the dehumidifer motor starts working; however the water output
container remains bone-dry.

Any thoughts as to what might be wrong, and whether it's repairable or a
bin job?

Thanks
David


If you have the receipt, a card statement, or anything that proves when you
bought it (Like a manufacturing date on it, as it is an own brand), it's a
take it back to the shop job, under your rights as detailed in the sale of
goods act.

If it is a compressor type, it will detail the refrigerant gas it uses on
the back somewhere.

http://consumerdirect.gov.uk has more advise.
