Overview
The Waykar PD160B is a 34-pint Energy Star dehumidifier rated for spaces up to 2,000 sq ft, with a 30 to 80 percent humidity range, a 0.66 gallon tank, and an included hose for continuous drainage.
The wider 30 percent low end matters mainly for basements, crawlspaces and post-rain drying, since many standard units stop at 40 percent RH. Its 34-pint rating is measured under Energy Star's fixed 95F, 90% RH test condition, so actual daily moisture removal in a typical home will run lower than that figure.
- 34 pints per day rated capacity for up to 2,000 sq ft
- 30 to 80 percent adjustable humidity range
- Dual drainage: 0.66 gallon tank or continuous hose
- 24-hour timer with auto-restart after power loss
Who it's for
Suits basements, garages and large rooms that need sustained, high-capacity moisture control, especially paired with the continuous drain hose for unattended operation. Not a fit for someone who only needs to protect a small closet, safe or car, where a disposable or rechargeable absorber is simpler.
Pros and cons
- 30 to 80 percent humidity range goes lower than many standard units
- Includes a hose for continuous, unattended drainage
- Energy Star certified
- Auto-restart resumes settings after a power outage
- 0.66 gallon internal tank is small without the drain hose connected
- 34-pint rating is a lab figure at 95F/90% RH, not typical room conditions
Performance notes
A compressor and fan pull moisture from the air, with automatic defrost cycling in to prevent coil icing during cooler basement operation. The 0.66 gallon internal tank empties by hand for everyday use, or the included hose routes water out continuously for longer, unattended runs. A 24-hour timer, two fan speeds, and auto-restart after a power outage round out the controls, and the unit carries Energy Star certification.
