Here's an easy DIY with pictures.
you first have to have a hole deep enough for it to do its job-- since its on dirt you can either put rock in it and make sure the screen is cleaned after each long usuage-- or like it with cement and it would make a better solid home-- even a large plastic tub might work-- you need a place for electric and a place for it to drain. The water has to go somewhere-- we tried in to our air conditioner drain that is in the crawl space and it works great. good luck
Um, hire a professional?
