 The Phoenix R250 LGR Dehumidifier

•  Coated Coils

 – For longer life, protection against 

corrosion in the harshest environments, and protection 

against the loss of the heat transfer properties of the 

coil.

•  Capacity - 

The Phoenix R250 removes 135 pints per 

day at AHAM, (80°F/60%RH).

•  Energy Efficiency - 

Draws only 8.3 amps and removes 

6.0 pints/kWh.

•  310 CFM - 

Faster drying and superior static pressure 

for ducting.

•  Hi-Temp Operation

 - up to 110°F

•  Heavy-Duty Condensate Pump

.

•  Compact Design - 

20”x20”x33.5”.

•  Telescoping Handle - 

A heavy-duty retractable handle 

for ease of transport and reduces space for storage 

and stacking.

•  Recessed 12” Wheels - 

Allows greater maneuverability 

on the job site and efficient storage. Rolls over 

obstacles with ease.

•  Pleated Media Air Filter - 

A 12”x12”x1” MERV-11 filter 

is standard.

•  Stacking/Nesting - 

Reduces space for ease of stacking 

and storage.

•  Patented ByPass™ Technology - 

Increased 

performance over a wide temperature range.

The Phoenix R250 has been redesigned from the inside out 

to be a rugged, high-performance dehumidifier. Phoenix is 

leading the industry by introducing epoxy coated coils. This 

new feature will extend the life of the coil, provide protection in 

corrosive environments, and maintain the coil’s heat transfer 

ability over the life of the coil. 
We kept the outstanding handle used on the R200 along with 

patented ByPass™ Technology, increased airflow, multiple 

ducting options, and a pleated media filter. And, with some 

amazing Phoenix Engineering, the R250 removes the most 

water of the Phoenix rotomolds at 135 pints per day (AHAM) 

while drawing only 8.3 amps of electricity, making it one of the 

smallest, lightest XL category LGRs on the market.
