Where does the water pool up? Any way to connect a hose/outlet for collected water? Thanks!

This unit isn't a water separator, it is simply a heater. In places that can become damp through physical locations (like a sailboat at the moor) or places that aren't used often (basement) it can help by keeping the ambient air warmer and thus dryer just by warming the air. There isn't anything you need to collect or service as it is an "idiot tool" that works great in my opinion. I have two, one in each of my boats to great success. I live in the Pacific Northwest, it's damp and cool here; these units keep the mold and must at bay. If that's what you're looking for than look no further.

There is no collection of water. It simply emitsa low level of heat which drys the air and takes out the dampness. What you are referring to sounds more like a dehumidifier whereas this is an air dryer.

This isn't like a dryz air pot, it does not collect moisture from the air, rather it produces dry heated air. It keeps the area above the dew point so the moisture does not condensate.

I didn't end up keeping mine due to poor packaging, but the unit is not a dehumidfier with a collection tank. It dries the air as an ongoing process so there's nothing to collect.

There is no water pooling up. This device provides a small amount of heat that keeps moisture out of the air. I have had several of these running for years in a mini storage at the beach (sitting on floor), in my 5th wheel when stored for winter (sitting on linoleum) and a shed. No water pool, keeps things nice and dry.

I have a pool drainer that I purchased online for less than $20.00. Or you can use a hose like for syphoning gas. I try to keep a lot of water off the top due to the heaviness and extra wear and tear on cover. Esp. In the spring when the ice melts.

I have both hot and cold water outlets on the side of my house. I connect a washing machine hose (one with a Y shape) to the faucets and then to the shower unit. Works great. If it ever gets warm again up here in New England I'll be able to use the outdoor shower again.

You can connect a hose and put the hose in a drain. Never have to empty the bucket again!

You still need the pipes from your pool and the shut offs, assuming your pool is above ground. All else is there.

I had to take a water hose and kind of prime mine where the intake is, squirt water in there and it will evently pick the water up! Good luck !

There is no option of attaching a hose on this model. I empty the reservoir about every 10-12 days.

It comes with a flexible drain, but I don't think you could connect anything to that. You may want to just connect some type of hose to it....if you're a "handyman" I'm sure you can do it.

You have to tip the unit backward to get the water flowing. I simply set up in my front doorway, with the back side facing outwards, and then, standing in front of it holding my hip up against it to prevent it from falling. I pull the the plugs out and pull it towards me. It empties pretty quickly. I did discover, when I first got it, that I had to empty my unit a lot - and then I discovered I had it in the wrong mode. Keep it on "Cool", and you won't have to empty it too often. I love my portable AC!

Mine connected to one water outlet. There is a level on the side of the mid section before the heads that directs the water to the heads. You can have water come out of one head or both heads.

You need to have a good area to drain it. We attached a hose to the drain so we could strategically place the water. We also climbed inside to wash the sides and floor, turned it upside down over an outside climbing toy we have in the yard and after a couple of days folded it up for storage. It was a bit of a pain, but about what you'd expect from a pool. I didn't mind doing it and am looking forward to pulling it back out this season.

There is no pump supplied. On our pool, some of the water that is being returned to the pool via the central pump/filter system is diverted to the slide. I think water can also be supplied thru a garden hose.

It drains outside of the pool. There is an outlet port that is screw capped, you simply unscrew this cap and then you can either shoot the back flow water directly from there, or you can attach a hose and direct the flow.

First I suggest buying a foot bigger it runs a little small. I don't have the support poles either so I went and bought some PVC pipe and made my own. Once I did that water didnt pool up.

You can put a tarp or piece of plastic over it. You can also let water out and refill with warm water as needed

On the back wall, about an inch off the bottom of it, there's the host attachment. This is a threaded connection in which it comes with an adapter that screws into that and gives you the laguna quick click/fit connection.To drain it you could pop the hose off and let it drain but that will leave an inch of water in there. Also once the pump is turned off that feeds that hose the water drains down back into the pond, or so mine does (don't see why everyone else's wouldn't either).

Also wanted to mention this unit works well in a pit as the legs keep it too far from the ground to use to get water off say the basement floor. I have a portable unit that attached right to a garden hose out of the box plus it sits pretty flush to any surface you put it on thus getting the water off the floor as much as possible. My portable unit kicks on when it senses water and shuts itself off when there's no more water to suck up.
