4. Installation
4.1 Installation Checklist
IMPORTANT: Prior to installation of the
DH90, the following checklist should be
reviewed.
The DH90 can be installed in a variety of locations
to meet the owner’s needs, and integrate with
existing forced air systems or existing ductwork
if desired. Choose a location with consideration
to accessibility for service, drain availability, and
power outlet location.
4.1A Power Accessibility
Unit should be located in an area where the cord’s
length (10') should easily reach a 115 VAC electrical
outlet with a minimum of a 15 A circuit capacity.
4.1B Accessibility
The installed DH90 should have at least 14 inches
of clearance in the front of the device to service
the filter.
4.1C Support Structure and Suspension
Place the DH90 on supports to raise the base of the
unit. Do not place the DH90 directly on structural
building members without vibration absorbers or
unwanted noise may result.
The DH90 may be suspended from structural
members by supporting the entire base of the unit
via cross members, rigid frame, or the like. Do not
hang the a DH90 from the cabinet. Remember to
place a drain pan under the unit if it is suspended
above a finished area or above an area where
water leakage could cause damage.
