Insert the exhaust panel into the window opening, then close the window against the
exhaust panel. A tight seal will permit maximum cooling efficiency. Note: There must be
at least 10 inches (25.4 cm) of open space behind the exhaust panel to allow adequate
airflow.
Note: The flexible exhaust duct can extend to a maximum length of 118 inches (300 cm).
Provide the straightest, shortest path available. Excessive bending or stretching of the duct will
reduce cooling efficiency.

Drainage Plug Insertion
Warning: The unit’s built-in re-evaporator will not function until you insert the
drainage plug into the drainage outlet.
When the unit cools or dehumidifies, condensation forms. The unit has a built-in re-evaporator
that allows it to expel condensation through the warm air exhaust stream. This feature allows
the unit to operate indefinitely without requiring you to empty a water collection tank. The unit
ships with both the upper and lower drainage plugs pre-installed.
6-1
Cooling Mode with Re-Evaporation
Both plugs must remain installed to enable re-evaporation of condensation.
6-2
Cooling Mode without Re-Evaporation
To use Cooling mode without re-evaporating condensation, remove the bottom drain plug
and route user-supplied drain line to external drainage. The top drain plug must remain
installed.
6-3
Dehumidify Mode
When using the unit in Dehumidify mode, remove the top drain plug and route user-
supplied drain line to external drainage. The bottom drain must remain installed. This will
maximize the amount of water removed from the air.
Note: If the drainage system becomes clogged, a small internal reservoir will collect
condensation. If the drainage system is not cleared before the internal reservoir fills, the unit
will shut down automatically.
Warning: Before connecting the unit to a dedicated drainage system, turn it off
and unplug it. There is a risk of electric shock while the unit is plugged in.
Note: If your building’s cooling system has night or weekend thermostat setbacks, has periodic
shutdowns, or has limited cooling capacity, you may need to consider alternatives to the
standard installation. This product is meant to be used as a supplemental cooling device, and
cannot make up for significant fluctuations in building temperature or humidity.
