FAQ's

Customer Questions

What kind of maintenance is required?

Routine maintenance includes checking and replacing filters regularly, inspecting drainage lines, and cleaning the coils periodically. Most users find the upkeep simple and manageable.

How often do I need to clean or change the filter?

Most customers check the filter every 1–3 months. Depending on dust levels and usage, you may need to clean or replace it quarterly.

What makes Santa Fe dehumidifiers stand out from other brands?

Santa Fe dehumidifiers are engineered and assembled in Madison, Wisconsin, by Therma-Stor. They are known for their durability, energy efficiency, and high-performance moisture control. Each unit is supported by a 6-year limited warranty, reflecting the brand’s commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.

Can I use one unit for both my basement and the whole house?

If centrally located and ducted properly, models like the Ultra98 or Ultra120 can manage humidity for your entire home. A professional can help plan the best layout.

Is it safe to run the dehumidifier continuously?

Yes, Santa Fe units are designed for continuous operation. You can set a target humidity level, and the unit will cycle on and off as needed to maintain it.

What is the warranty coverage for Santa Fe dehumidifiers?

Each Santa Fe dehumidifier comes with a 6-year limited warranty, providing peace of mind and reflecting the brand's confidence in their product's durability and performance.

Will it make my house feel cooler or just less humid?

While it doesn’t lower the temperature directly, reducing humidity makes the air feel cooler and more comfortable, especially in the summer.

Will this help with mold or allergy issues?

Definitely. Lowering humidity reduces the growth of mold, mildew, and dust mites—common allergy triggers. Santa Fe units also come with high-quality filters to trap airborne particles.

How can I set the dehumidifier to lower than 40%?

No, the Santa Fe UL4657 (Ultra98) cannot typically be set lower than 40% relative humidity. Dehumidifier efficiency relies heavily on temperature. The machine will struggle to reach even 40% if your basement or crawl space gets too cold.
