I just bought this dehumidifier and have used it for 3 days now. I am very happy with it except every so often it makes a strange clicking noise?

When I got my dehumidifier, I set it on 50% and AUTO. It has been there since, works perfectly, and occasionally it makes an audible click as it does a self-change in the program. Sometimes it's a triple click. It has done a superb job for some months now so I just mark the clicks down to automatic adjustment.

Mine makes a clicking noise too. I wouldn't mind, but the clicking noise is quite loud compared to the machine running on the "Low" setting. I haven't tried this yet, but maybe it only clicks in "Auto" mode? I didn't notice it for the first few days when I had it running on High all the time.

I have had mine for about 1 year. I think the noise you hear is just the motor when it clicks on, if you have it on auto like I do.

If it's something you hear every couple of minutes, it could be a noise the desiccant wheel makes when passing a certain position. One of mine sometimes makes a faint "squeak" every couple of minutes. You can observe the desiccant wheel turning and might be able to correlate its rotation with the click.

Haven't noticed any clicking from mine, but then I'm not always in the particular room in which we use it. Is it like an electrical snapping sound, or more like a trickling water sound?

When mine goes on, it makes a loud pop and then a very loud and noticeable vibrating noise, like from a coil or something. This dies down after several seconds, and then it runs quietly....until the next cycle. It cycles several times an hour. Have had the unit for 11 months, and it has made these noises the whole time. Negligible effect on my electric bill.

Thank you! That was definitely part of my problem. One last question: when opening, I hear a pleasant ratcheting sound, which I don't hear when closing. Does yours not make that sound

I purchased Dec 2011, my unit has a clicking, but it happens only when I move the camera around, like shaking it or more like when it's rocked side to side. It sounds like something is loose inside, like a small screw. It happens all the time, even when the camera is turned off. If I didn't know of the issue, I may not have really noticed, so, not a huge issue for me. Camera works great nonetheless and I still love picture and video results.

At least yours still makes noises. That said, I had a similar experience with the HAAN I had. Upon start-up there are loud clicking noises that get quieter as the pump primes with water. The unit I purchased stopped working after the third use.

What kind of noise? Mine make a sort of "clicking" sound when the heat goes off as the metal starts to cool.

Mine makes a medium loud click when the lights turn on or off, caused by the physical relays in these unit...that is normal. Other than that, mine is silent. I think any other noise would not be normal.

sounds like it has a problem, there should be no noise coming from unit, contact manufacturer or place of purchase.

I just got mine a couple weeks ago and have used it 3 times. I do see and hear the steam when using it, it sounds like something might be wrong with yours.

Yes, it's normal. Ours clicks also when starting. It's the electrical solenoid activating.

Hi Victor, not sure why your hair dryer would be making weird noise. Mine makes noise, but it's normal like it would be for any blow dryer. Maybe take it to the salon and ask a stylist if they think it's making weird noise. Stylist would know for sure since they work with so many dryers. Maybe it needs to be fixed.

It is not very noisy. I have owned several dehumidifiers and it is the quietest one i have had

I have not had that occur. I wish I could tell you more about what is causing that noise. It might have done so, but I had mine installed by a professional and I was not there for the testing. I have not had a power failure so it has not had to kick in either, so I haven't heard it in operation.

Yes, its common! I got that same exact trimmer and it makes that clicking noise when you turn it on. I actually think it sounds cool!!

I installed 3 in my 600 sq ft condo and I don't hear any clicking noises from the thermostats at all. Occasionally, I will hear noise from the baseboard heaters.

Hi, That doesn't sound normal. I've used this kind of dryer for over twenty years and never had a problem with them. The only noise you should here is air noise and the humming of the motor. The dryer should be very quiet. Hope this helps

It sounds like a defective unit. Mine works perfectly.... knock on wood... no issues so far and I've had it for over a yr.
