I need a dehumidifier in my basement asap, along with a condensate pump. Outlets are scarce and I’d have to connect via an extension cord, 15 or 25 feet. I know that manufacturers say don’t hook dehumidifiers to an extension cord, but I have no choice.
The unit draws about 4.8 amps. Would a 12 or 10 gauge cord work safely?
Thanks very much.
