As I recall, the PPM for dehumidifier water is quite low. I have heard anecdotal reports that there may be heavy metal accumulation but the PPM's don't suggest that. There may be other concerns, but I am not aware. It would be nice to use the water. I guess running a test plant a couple of times may be worth the experiment.Located in South Tx. so humidity is a problem. I use the Inofia 30 pint unit in my 300sq.ft. grow room, maintaining 52-58%RH by removing a little less than 1.5 gal/day. I drain it into a five gallon bucket with the provided hose. I'm pondering whether to use removed water for plants.
Thank you for that information. I will not be the one running the test.As I recall, the PPM for dehumidifier water is quite low.

Thank youInofia HD 161a 30 Pint
Everything is made like crap these days I wish ac infinity would make one already.All the household name brands (along with all the whacked out Amazon shit) all have the same negative reviews... Freon leaking, freezing up, and water leaks.
Going to have to pony up for a smaller commercial unit it seems. Think again before assuming GE, Frigidaire, etc are good to go...

South texas, I have been running the equivalent of this unit, mines a different color, but I have ran this in my lung room since 2017. Never failed me, doesn’t crank crazy heat, and has a pump or dump option.Everything is made like crap these days I wish ac infinity would make one already.

Nice! Used to, you'd get a lemon every now and then. Now, you get a decent one every now and then.South texas, I have been running the equivalent of this unit, mines a different color, but I have ran this in my lung room since 2017.

Welp, that explains why I have this one running, turnt to 11, on my porch, for weeks, and it's still humid out there.Dehumidifiers are for sealed rooms.
gotta say, it’s rare, but it does happen. it dried out my framing after hurricane Harvey like crazy. Set up zip walls with plastic and let it rip. it was mind blowing how much water it pulled. only thing that doesn’t work anymore is the ir reader so the remote doesn’t connect to it. But shit, no biggy.Nice! Used to, you'd get a lemon every now and then. Now, you get a decent one every now and then.
You definitely got your money out of it! Floods are demoralizing... Our family went through two, 6 years apart when I was a kid.gotta say, it’s rare, but it does happen. it dried out my framing after hurricane Harvey like crazy.

They are no bueno man. Talk about sucking the wind out of your sails…..shit.You definitely got your money out of it! Floods are demoralizing... Our family went through two, 6 years apart when I was a kid.
I got the Midea Cube 20 Pint Dehumidifier. It keeps my lung room about 55% while it is in the mid 60's outside and fills about every other day. My problem is the lung room is drawing in a lot of outside air. I was also thinking of using the water, but I would run it through the distiller first.Located in South Tx. so humidity is a problem.
