Quest Condensate Pump Kit: Drainage Where Gravity Will Not Reach
This pump kit moves condensate away from a Quest dehumidifier when a gravity drain will not reach. It mounts directly to the dehumidifier with two screws, so the pump travels with the unit. Water collects in a 2 quart reservoir. A float switch runs the pump only when the water level rises. Quest rates the kit to move water up to 12 ft vertically and 20 ft in total. A 3/8 in x 20 ft drain hose comes in the box, along with a hose clamp and two mounting screws. The pump plugs into a standard 115V outlet. Quest lists it for the Quest 70, 100, 155, 205 and 225. It also fits the Quest 335, 506, 746 and 876, plus the Dual 105, 110, 150, 155, 165, 205 and 225. The full list of Quest part numbers is in the specifications below.
Installing a Dehumidifier Pump Kit
Disconnect the dehumidifier from power, and remove any drain hose already installed. You will need extra material to raise the dehumidifier so the pump can sit at its drain. Line the pump up with the two screw holes on the dehumidifier and fasten it without overtightening. Route the 9/16 in hose from the dehumidifier into the pump hole farthest from the unit. Trim the hose to length and cut it at a 45 degree angle to help it drain. Keep the hose free of kinks along the whole route. Slide the clamp onto the drain hose, push the hose onto the barbed outlet and tighten the clamp. Tug gently on the hose to confirm it is secure, then route it to the drain. Plug the pump and the dehumidifier into an outlet on a GFCI-protected circuit. The job takes a Phillips screwdriver, a level and a utility knife.
