Hazel, I assume you want to know how to find and remove the filter for cleaning.

The filter is located behind the front air intake louvers and depending on which model you have, the filter can be accessed one of two ways. Before you attempt to remove the filter turn the unit OFF and unplug it.

1. Remove the bucket from it's holder. Look up inside the bucket cavity, just inside the unit behind the louvers and you will see a tab type pull handle. This is the handle to the frame of the filter. Pull it down and out.

2. As you're facing the unit on the fight side just behind the louvers, there will appear to be a trap type door. Open this door and you will have access to pull the filter out.

You can clean the filter in one of two ways: Vacuum it or it it's really dirty, wash it in warm soapy (dish washing liquid), rinse and dry thoroughly. NEVER operate the dehumidifier without the filter in place. Doing so, can cause damage to the unit.

Hope this helped you. Please let me know.

What should I do when the air filter light comes on?
Good Afternoon Friend, that's a great question!

Typically the FILTER RESET light will illuminate after 250 hours of operation. To locate the filter, remove the bucket and the pull filter downwards. The filter can be clean by using clean water or vacuum cleaner extension hose. If you use clean water, please allow the filter to dry. Once you reinstalled the filter then replace the bucket. To extinguish the light simply press the FILTER button and your dehumidifier should resume normal operations. Remember it is best to clean your filter every two weeks based on normal operating conditions. Hope this helps! - Z

Removing the filter model fdl7051
Hello Friend, this is Z. Thank you for allowing me to assist you!

You would need to remove the bucket to locate the filter of your Frigidaire dehumidifier (FDL70S1). Then pull the filter downwards for cleaning. The filter can be clean by using clean water or vacuum cleaner extension hose. If you use clean water, please allow the filter to dry. Once you reinstalled the filter then replace the bucket. To extinguish the light simply press the FILTER button and your dehumidifier should resume normal operations. Remember it is best to clean your filter every two weeks based on normal operating conditions and typically the FILTER REST light will illuminate after 250 hours of operation. Hope this helps!

I HAVE THE BHD-301-D COMFORT AIRE DEHUMIDIFIER AND THE LIGHT KEEPS BLINKING AND IT WILL NOT RUN I DO NOT KNOW WERE THE FILTER IS TO SEE IF IT NEEDS CLEAN CAN YOU HELP THANKS
The filter is located behind the front louvers. It can be accessed by removing the water collection bucket and looking up into the bucket holder, just behind the louvers. You should see a plastic pull tab handle, which is the filter frame. If you have never removed the filter for cleaning, it may have a piece of plastic tap, which was used for shipping. you will need to remove the tape and discard it, before pulling straight won the filter frame.

The filter can be cleaned by vacuuming it or if it's really dirty, washing it it in warm water and mild dish washing liquid. Rinse thoroughly and shake off any excess water and dry the filter completely before reinstalling it. Never operate the unit with out the air intake filter in place.

Hope I was able to help you and thanks for choosing FixYa..

The filter is getting ice on it when I turn it on.
If you haven't already, clean the filter after it has thawed. In addition, the coils behind the filter may need cleaning.

Turn the unit OFF & Unplug it. Remove the filter and the upper half of the front of the cabinet. Clean the cools with warm water and dish washing liquid. Rinse with a damp sponge, dry the coils and apply a light coating of WD40. Reassemble the cabinet, plug the unit in, turn it back ON and take it for a test drive. Be sure to clean the filter at least once every 2 weeks.

Quit running and displays E2 in the F/C window.
E2 error indicates that the air intake filter needs to be removed and cleaned. Turn the Master ON/OFF Switch to OFF and unplug the unit, before removing the filter. If you wash the filter, it must be completely dry, before reinstalling it. DO NOT run the dehumidifier without the clean filter installed.

Hope this helped you to solve the problem. Please let me know. Thanks.

What does code E2 mean
E2 Indicates that the filter needs to be removed and cleaned. It's a good idea to clean the filter at least once every 2 weeks, as standard routine maintenance. Be sure to turn the Master ON/OFF Switch to OFF and unplug the unit, before removing and cleaning the filter. You can access the filter by pulling on the filter frame handle on the right side of the unit, behind the front louvers. You can either vacuum the filter or wash it in warm soapy water (dish washing detergent), rinse it and dry it thoroughly, before reinstalling it. A hand held hair dryer will dry it pretty fast.

Hope this helped you to solve the problem.

Do these humidifiers have a filter that needs cleaning?
Yes, they do. The filter is located behind the louvers on the front. To remove it for cleaning, grasp the Filter Handle on the right side of the unit, on the same level as the louvers and pull it out. Clean the filter with a vacuum cleaner or luke warm water and a mild detergent. Thoroughly dry the filter before reinserting it.

If you have misplaced your Owner's Manual, I have included a link to it, that you can download and print for future reference. http://www.haieramerica.com/en/asset/product/4ba7175e54 Read over it and follow the suggested Routine Maintenance Guide.

Hope this helped you. Please let me know. Thanks.

Hi Fixya: The Filter on my Danby DDR7009REE Room dehumidifier never seems to accumulate any dust. It is supposed to need to be cleaned every two weeks by vacuuming or soaking, but the filter is always...
How often does the unit run? Does the fan run when the unit is suppose to be running(as the fan pulls the air thru the filter). If every thing operates correctly and the filter is in the right location on the unit then all I can say is that you keep a clean house. Personally I only need to clean the air filter on my dehumidifier about once a summer. I wouldn't be overly concerned if it isn't getting very dirty.
