Exclamation 2007 Montana 3075RL Mold Permanent Living

I bought this unit 2 1/2 years ago for temporary living while building a barn apartment. With the economy going in the tank and getting used to tiny tiny home living, I changed the layout of the barn and added a big shop. About a month ago we finally moved her in. We pulled all the tanks and plumbed it direct to the septic. In the process, where I had dog crates/beds in the long pop out I hit spongy floor. We pulled up all the carpet and vinyl in the lower section. Sure enough bad black mold under where the big dog bed was!! There was a very small water mark in the rear corner but that was abnormal water from where I washed it top to bottom by hand. We replaced the plywood subfloor in the pop out and put down the luxury vinyl plank flooring in the whole lower section. I gave up on the damp rid right after that and bought a dehumidifier. The building has a full bath (over the tiny shower) and I keep a dehumidifier in bath as well as the feedroom (both have hvac). All working great until two days ago. Now the dehumidifier in the Montana is getting black mold in the tank. It's a 22 quart and in the lower section. I didn't plan on replacing the carpet in the bedroom (upper section) until next year. Help!! What should I do?? Get another dehumidifier for the upper section??
