At what low temp. will this unit operate at? I need it to dehumidify a cold room kept at 46-48 Deg. F.Thanks!

The appliance is designed to operate between 41 degrees F and 96 degrees F. This is according to the instruction manual that came with my machine.

I dont know, I keep mine in the basemenrt aronud 65-70 degrees or so. It works fine.

The Specs Say low 40's Low forties to me is 41 to 44.. But if it were me I would call and verify due to it is a pricy investment and I like things to work the first time..

the unit has a heat source so it doesn't seem to matter the temp of the room (above freezing). I have it in my garage and it is often in the 40 degree range. The unit does put out heat when operating (when removing humidity--if humidity is at or lower than your setting the heat turns off but fan continues to operate). You should be fine. I love this thing. I moved from Eastern WA where humidity is hardly ever above 50%, to Western Wa where it is in the 80-99% most of the time. I am allergic to mildew/molds etc and this unit keeps my home dry and no musty scents. I was prepared to purchase a second one for the upstairs but this dandy unit keeps both floors perfect.

I've had no problems with my dehumidifier running in the basement. When it gets really cold (like below freezing), my basement doesn't get much moisture, so the unit doesn't run as often, though it's still on. But the dehumidifier has definitely still worked at lower (and all other) temperatures for me.

I use my dehumidifier in my home, so it never gets that low. The lowest my house has gotten is 59 degrees.

I love this dehumidifier! However, I bought it to solve a problem in a very small space, on purpose, because I also needed it to keep the space above freezing in winter. It does have the ability to be set for a specific humidity, if you want, of 40, 50, or 60%, another thing I love about it, as I need it to prevent mold so keep it set at 40%, and it does a great job. Hope you get your answer for the size space you need.

No, I have a thermostat hooked in-line, so it doesn't run below 60 deg. I don't want to be cooling the space in the winter, I want the opposite, so the house stays warmer. This is an awesome unit and works really well.

I just checked the thermostat and it only goes down to 45 degrees. If you are trying to use this for freeze protection, you might look into a space heater with a built-in digital thermostat.

I use my thermostat to control the cooling range on an iceless cooler. Fiddling with the thermostat I have noted that it can go as low as minus 58 to well over 200 degrees F. The temperature settings are manually set.

The coils have not iced up but I have only had the unit a few weeks and it is in lower room of a tri level home. So far the coils have not iced up as I said. The unit definitely is taking harmful moisture from the room. I set the level at 40% and it ran continuously and I was dumping the bucket twice every 24 hours. I set in to 60%, and the room feels the same and the unit shuts off some.As with many dehumidifiers, longevity will tell the story of how well this unit is bilt

In my experience in a cold garage, the dehumidifier will shut itself off when the temperature falls to approximately 35 - 38 F. It will not turn itself back on when the temperature rises. You have to manually turn it back on again.

I have a 20 X 20 basement room that is freezing. When I turn it on, the heater reads that it is 55 degrees in the room. If I turn it on at 6 am, the room is comfortable (maybe 74) by 8:30. I think it does a very good job. My parents have one that they use to heat their family which is maybe 30 X 20. I really like it.

Yes, but not for extremes: Operating Temperature 0 - 40 C (32 - 104 F) Humidity Max. 85% non-condensing

cold air does not hold moisture very well, that said mine works well to about 45% humidity which is very comfortable at about 68 to 72 degrees

to some point, how cold does it get out side? I had it in a room 12x24 and it ran all the time and never got above 0 c, it was -20 outside

good evening,the set point temperature range is 45F TO 90F which 45f would be the lowest set temp.i hope this helplove the unit work really well.

Sorry Fred, this was never asked to go as low as 60 degrees. This is used in a wider and unclosed room for a 90+ year old. We are happy if could get to 69-70 for her. So any answer for your particular fully closed room with lessened human temps and movement, and wishing more maitenance steady refrigeration character would be pure speculation. Sorry

The lowest temperature that the unit will go is 50 degrees Fahrenheit. I know that the description indicates that it's an air purifier, but I wouldn't say that it purifies the air though I'm in no way an expert on air purifiers. There's a filter on the back of the unit that will catch large debris like hair/pet hair but nothing smaller like small dust particles.

I'm not sure. My unit is kept in my kegerator, which stays around 35 degrees F. I'm not sure why you would have humidity issues in a car in below freezing temps.
