    Dehumidifier not working
    My dehumidifier has stopped removing moister. I have a hygrometer and know that my humidex is around 75%, so it should be working. It sounds like it's running fine, just not removing water. Thanks for any help.

    The fan may be running but the compressor is not. I hate to say this but unless it has a simple humidstat and not a circuit board it will cost as much to repair as replace.
