Need manual for fedder dehumidifer to hook up drain hose. need to know were drain hose connects.

Most have a hose connection on the bucket,you might need to drill or cut out where hose goes on to let it drain through it.

it should be in the same area where you pull the pan out to dump. There should be a hose hook up inside the space where the drain box is.

Fedders also made identical dehumidifiers for Maytag. Their model numbers are almost identical, and their parts are the same. So, try finding the parts you need thru Maytag.

No, it is not necessary to remove the float shutoff. As water will be constantly draining from the unit, when the hose is connected.

Hope this helped you.

Check to make sure the drain hole connection on the Dehumidifer's reservoir, that you have the hose hooked to, isn't plugged.

Also, you might want to see if the hose connection on the reservoir, still has the "knock out plug" still in place. Look at the hose connection on the reservoir, and if you can't see through it, or put a screwdriver through it, you need to punch it out the middle with a screwdriver. Open up the hole as much as you can so it will drain into and through your hose.

Check your hose also, as it might be plugged, disconnect it and blow through one end to make sure the water can flow through it.

Those are the only three things that could be preventing it from draining out the reservoir, through the hose connection, and through the hose to your drain.

Hope you find this Very Helpful and best regards!

I have the same model and bought a clear plastic hose at Home Depot, and drain it into a nearby bathtub. I don't have the size handy but just measure the diameter of the hose fitting, and make sure the hose has an inside diameter to match. Some stores sell hose by the foot; I bought a prepackaged roll.

This will get you your manuel

I have the same problem and after talking (mostly waiting) with Fedders repair, I have been told how to solve the problem. Plug up the drain hole on the right side (the one not connected to the drain hose). The drain hole extends down about 5mm, outside measures 10mm and interior measures 7mm. They do come with a drain hold cover. Not a replaceable part with a number. Off to the hardware store.

Looks like I am in the same boat as all of you. Identical issue with the A7DH45B2A model.
Bad compressor?
