Description

This heater assembly restores the defrost assist function in compatible dehumidifiers, helping clear frost from the coil so the unit can keep removing moisture efficiently. Replacing a failed heater helps prevent freeze-ups and maintain consistent performance in cooler rooms. What it does:

• Provides controlled heat to aid the defrost cycle and melt ice on the evaporator
• Helps maintain airflow and steady water collection in low-temperature conditions
• Common symptoms of failure: persistent coil icing, reduced moisture removal, repeated freeze-ups

What's included:

• 1 heater assembly

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing and allow components to cool
• Note wire routing and connector positions; transfer any clips/brackets from the old assembly if needed
• Mount in the original location with proper clearances from wiring and plastic parts
• After reassembly, run the unit and monitor for proper defrost operation
