Does this unit have an option to turn the fan off when the compressor cycles off, or does the fan stay on constantly?

The fan stays on all the time and there is no option to have it turn off when the compressor cycles.

No, the fan stays on. In heat mode it turns off. This works the same way identically as on my Friedrich unit with simular specs (but this one is more powerful)

This fan does not have an off or on switch. I simply cover the panel when not needed (it is installed on a remote cabin PA woods)

Any compressor makes some noise. I can carry on a decent conversation with it right next to me; I also have no problem sleeping with the unit on. My pet rabbits are not bothered by it either.

It's all or nothing. So yes, it'll turn off the fan or the 'ac' as they're both different but equal modes on the unit. The real difference is when the timer goes off it powers down everything running either the fan alone, or if the fan is running and the compressor is too. Everything gets cut off.

No to both questions. It will stop blowing ac air but it stays on unless you put it to sleep

I would not get this for the living part. The fan is always on and never turns off. So once you achieve your humidity level, the compressor shuts off but the fan is still on. I don't believe there is a way to turn the fan off. This is good for the basement to keep air moving. Some dehumidifiers shut off completely once the humidity level is reached. all will be somewhat loud like a window air conditioning unit. Most of the time, you will not need a dehumidifier in a living part of the house as long as you have an air conditioner.

Hi Randy,In the Money Saver Mode everything cycles off with the thermostat. Otherwise the compressor cuts off and the fan continues to run. As RLee said, in the Money Saver Mode the unit will turn on for a few seconds periodically to check the room temp to see if the unit needs to cycle on.

Sounds like the compressor is shutting on and off in relation to the the unit's set temperature and the room temperature. This is normal for the air conditioner's compressor to shut on and off. It is a feature of the air conditioner that will help conserve energy.

I just bought this on Jul 1 2015. I'm very disappointed because the fan runs all the time if the unit is on. The compressor cycles, the fan never shuts off. It sucks!!!

It does not have an automatic cut off when the desired setting is reached. It is stated in the product instructions that the fan runs continuously. It is a very effective energy star rated unit and the fan is quiet.

Used as A/C short cycle protection, when a/c turns off this unit will delay the ' on' for at least 5 minutes so compressor cools down before restarting

Mine has a manufacture date of Aug 2013. The compressor shuts off as soon as the humidity level has been reached. The fan runs for another few minutes to dry off the coils / prevent mildew from growing. When it comes back on, both the fan & compressor come on at the same time.

I've had this unit for two days and the compressor turns on and off but the fan runs non-stop, despite being at the selected humidity level. The instruction manual says, "When the setting humidity is reached, the unit will shut off automatically. For some models, the fan motor will continue operating."

One of the nice things about this Edgestar unit is the entire unit will shut off when the selected humidity level is reached. Most comparable unit's fan will keep running and only the compressor will shut on/off. The Edgestar shuts all the way off making it less noisy than other models.

I had that same question- you can find it at their website. www.californiaairtools.comIt really depends on whether you will be using it continually or intermittently. They have a chart that I found useful to determine which one I needed. Basically, you should not use this unit when the compressor is running for 1 hour continuously without cutting it off and letting it cool. I will say that it is VERY quiet. I use it in an office building and have had no complaints from neighbors.

I bought the machine because it is absolutely quiet. The hot is in fact hot and the cold is cold. Most coolers make too much noise when the compressor cycles off and on. Does not happen with this unit.

If there is I didn't get it, but the unit cools awesome! Have not had any problems. I was however Disappointed that the unit does not go off when it reaches optimal temperature. It just clicks on the fan and runs continuously. Hope this helps
