Description

Control Moisture with the MOISWELL Defender M145 Commercial Dehumidifier

The MOISWELL Defender M145 Commercial Dehumidifier removes up to 155 pints of moisture per day under saturation conditions and 70 pints per day under AHAM conditions. With 265 CFM airflow and coverage up to 6,000 square feet, it provides efficient humidity control for crawl spaces, tight basements, storage rooms, offices, and other moisture-prone areas.

Its horizontal 22.5 × 14 × 14.7-inch housing fits between floor joists and inside low-clearance spaces where upright dehumidifiers may be difficult to install. The unit can be used for floor or overhead installation when properly supported and installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Set the preferred humidity level, and the MOISWELL M145 Dehumidifier automatically cycles ON and OFF to maintain it. Automatic drainage, defrost, error detection, timer operation, and power-outage restart reduce the need for frequent manual checks.

ENERGY STAR-certified performance helps control operating costs during extended use. Its black-and-white housing also gives the MOISWELL Defender M145 Dehumidifier a clean appearance suitable for residential, commercial, and industrial properties.

Important Installation Notice

The Defender M145 uses gravity drainage. Install the drain hose with its outlet below the unit and maintain a continuous downward slope without bends or obstructions. The air outlet can be connected to optional ducting for remote air distribution. Ducting and the compatible remote controller are sold separately.
