LOCATION
The dehumidifier can be installed in a wide variety
of locations. It is required to be sheltered from the
elements, but can operate in 40°F to 150°F ambient
conditions.
• The dehumidifier is designed for a dedicated
15 amp circuit.
• Care must be taken to install the unit level.
• The condensate drain must have a trap installed.
Please see Figure 8 for drain trap
recommendations. Make sure that a secure,
leak-proof connection is made between the drain
trap and drain elbow on the dehumidifier. The
condensate hose should be sloped to a drain so
water cannot back up past trap.
• There must also be clearance for removing the filter
from the unit. This requires 20” on the left side of
the filter door (Figure 9).
Note: If a condensate pump is used, the dehumidifier
must be raised above the inlet so that the drain water
flows freely to the pump.
HANGING
If the unit is to be hung, it must be supported from the
bottom. It is recommended to use two unistruts to
support the base on the outside edges of the feet
locations. The strut must come out a minimum of 3” in
front of the filter access panel to allow the panel to
be removed. Make sure that the filter itself can still
be removed.
ATTIC INSTALLATION
It is strongly recommended that the unit be placed in
a drain pan with overflow protection to prevent water
damage in the event of a drain failure. The condensate
line should also be insulated to prevent condensation
on the outside of the line.
