GE Dehumidifiers: Reliable Moisture Control

Dehumidifiers are a must for homes struggling with excess moisture, musty smells, or high humidity levels. Excessive humidity can lead to mold, mildew, and discomfort, especially in summer when temps are high and there is more moisture in the air. Among the leading names in moisture control, GE dehumidifiers stand out for their reliable performance, energy efficiency, and smart features. 

In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about GE dehumidifiers, including their standout features, sizing options, and what sets GE apart from the competition.

Why Choose a GE Dehumidifier?

As one of America’s most trusted appliance brands, GE (General Electric) brings decades of innovation and dependability to its dehumidifier line. When you choose a GE dehumidifier, you’re investing in:

• Proven durability backed by quality engineering
  
• EnergyStar certified models that save on energy costs
  
• User-friendly controls and WiFi connectivity
  
• SmartDry technology that adjusts fan speed based on humidity levels

Key Features of GE Dehumidifiers

GE dehumidifiers come packed with features designed to make moisture control convenient and efficient for homeowners.

☑ EnergyStar Certified

GE dehumidifiers boast Energy Star certification, meaning they meet strict EPA guidelines for energy efficiency. This translates into lower electricity bills and a reduced carbon footprint, without sacrificing performance.

☑ SmartDry™ Technology

Automatically adjusts fan speed based on humidity levels for optimal comfort and energy efficiency.

☑ SmartHQ™ WiFi Connectivity

Available in premium models, allowing remote monitoring and control from your smartphone. You can adjust settings, set schedules, and receive maintenance alerts from anywhere.

☑ Continuous Drain Options

All GE dehumidifiers support continuous drainage. Some models come with a built-in pump—ideal for basement installations where gravity drainage is not possible.

☑ Filter Reminder & Washable Filters

Built-in alerts notify you when it’s time to clean the air filter. GE’s washable filters help maintain clean air and maximize performance.

☑ Auto Defrost Function

Prevents frost build-up on the coils during colder months, ensuring year-round use even in cooler spaces.

☑ Auto Restart

After a power outage, the dehumidifier resumes operation with the previous settings—perfect for unattended use in vacation homes or basements.

☑ Eco-friendly Refrigerant

The latest models use the new R32 refrigerant, which has a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) than older HFC-based refrigerants like R410-A. This makes them more efficient, eco-friendly, and less toxic. This also makes them compliant with the EPA’s latest refrigerant standard, future-proofing your dehumidifier.

GE Dehumidifier Lineup

GE offers a variety of dehumidifier sizes measured in pints per day (PPD), the amount of moisture the unit can remove from the air in 24 hours. Choosing the right size depends on the square footage of your space and the humidity level.

1. Smaller spaces

GE ADYR22LC 22 Pint Portable Dehumidifier for Wet Spaces

This compact and efficient unit can remove 22 pints of moisture per day, and will collect 7 pints before the bucket needs to be emptied. It is an EnergyStar certified unit and uses the new R32 refrigerant with low Global Warming Potential. 

It has an easy to use electronic push pad panel that allows you to set the humidity level from 30% to 70% in 5% increments. It is perfect for use in cooler areas and can operate down to 41°F.

A convenient Filter Timer will illuminate when it is time to clean your filter after about 250 hours of operation.

2. For Medium Spaces

GE ADYR50LC 50 Pint Portable Dehumidifier for Wet Spaces

This larger model can remove 50 pints of moisture per day, and will collect 14 pints before needing to be emptied. It is also EnergyStar certified and uses the new R32 refrigerant.

This unit offers two fan speeds, as well as a Smart Dry feature that automatically adjusts the dehumidifier fan speed based on the humidity levels in the room. It also features a 24 hour on/off timer, easy to use digital controls, and auto restart function in case of a power failure.

3. GE Smart Dehumidifier

GE AWYR50LC 50 Pint Smart Portable Dehumidifier

This 50 pint smart dehumidifier boasts built-in WiFi. This allows it to be used with GE’s SmartHQ app so you can control it from your phone or tablet anywhere with an Internet connection.

You can turn the unit on or off, set humidity levels, or access its operating history. You can even set routines and integrate it with the rest of your SmartHQ-equipped GE appliances, so it can automatically start dehumidifying the space based on schedule, temperature or occupancy!

4. GE Smart Dehumidifier with Built-in Pump

GE APYR50LC 50 Pint Smart Portable Dehumidifier with Built-In Pump

This 50-pint smart dehumidifier has all the features of the previous model, but this time it comes with a built-in pump. This allows it to drain to a location up to 16 feet away.

Aside from the drain pump, it has a 14-pint bucket with automatic shut-off as well as a bucket full light feature. Additionally, a garden hose can be attached to automatically drain the collected water directly into a floor drain for convenience.

GE Dehumidifiers vs Other Brands

When comparing a GE dehumidifier to other major brands, you’ll find that GE offers:

• Better smart features at an accessible price point
  
• Quieter operation, especially for the mid-size models
  
• Higher-quality materials and construction
  
• More intuitive controls and easier maintenance
  

While some competitors may offer lower prices for their models, GE’s long-term reliability and advanced features make it a better value over time. After all, this is a brand with over a century of experience in manufacturing home appliances!

How to Choose the Right GE Dehumidifier

To select the perfect GE dehumidifier for your needs, consider the following:

Room Size	Humidity Level	Recommended GE Model
Small (under 1,500 sq. ft.)	Slightly damp	20-Pint (ADYR22LC)
Medium (up to 2,500 sq. ft.)	Moderately damp	50-Pint (ADYR50LC or AWYR50LC)
Large (up to 4,500 sq. ft.)	Very damp or wet	50-Pint with pump (APYR50LC)

If you’re planning to run the dehumidifier continuously or in a basement, we recommend a model with a built-in pump for easy, hands-free operation.
