  • Page 5: Dehumidifier Set Up

    • DO NOT place the dehumidifier directly on structural building members without vibration absorbers or unwanted noise may result. Place the EDHUM070H on supports to raise the base of the unit. • A drain pan with a float switch MUST be placed under the dehumidifier if installed above a living area or above an area where water leakage could cause damage.

  • Page 6: Attaching Duct Collars

    ATTACHING DUCT COLLARS Fresh Air Ventilation Duct Fresh air ventilation is optional. If setting up the unit to provide fresh air ventilation, see page 10. Return Air Inlet An 8” diameter duct collar is attached to the unit. Supply Air Outlet The back panel of the dehumidifier can be rotated to allow for horizontal flow through or vertical flow through of the supply air.

  • Page 7: Electrical Requirements

    ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS The EDHUM070H plugs into a common grounded 115VAC outlet. The device draws 5.1 Amps at 80°F and 60% RH. Locate the dehumidifier in an area where the cord’s length (9') easily reaches a 115 VAC electrical outlet with a minimum of 15 Amp circuit capacity. If used in an area that may become wet, a GFCI protected circuit is recommended.

  • Page 8: Drain Installation

    1" per 10'. An optional condensate pump kit is available for use with the EDHUM070H and may be installed if lift is required to dispose of condensate. Condensate is automatically pumped to a remote location when the water level in the pump’s reservoir rises to close the float switch.
  • Page 9 Ducting Considerations: • All flexible ducting connected to the EDHUM070H should be UL listed. • A short piece of flexible ducting on all EDHUM070H duct connections is recommended to reduce noise and vibration transmitted to rigid ductwork in the structure.

  • Page 10: Ducting To Hvac Systems

    • Install a dedicated 8" air return for the EDHUM070H from a central area of the structure. • Duct the supply of the EDHUM070H to the supply of the existing HVAC system with a backdraft damper. • If the existing system has multiple returns, instead of installing a dedicated return to the EDHUM070H, it is possible to select one to disconnect from the existing HVAC system and use it for the dedicated EDHUM070H return.

  • Page 11: Fresh Air Ventilation

    Fresh air may be brought into the structure by connecting an insulated duct from outside the structure to a tee located in the inlet duct of the EDHUM070H. A ventilation control is needed to program the time and frequency that the unit introduces outside air. The time and frequency of ventilation should be based on the size and occupancy of the residence.

  • Page 12: Determine Ventilation Requirements

    FRESH AIR VENTILATION Determine Ventilation Requirements The MINIMUM ventilation requirement is calculated using ASHRAE 62.2-2016. Use one or both of the options below to determine your ventilation requirement. Follow all local and national building and safety codes. Option 1: Calculating Airflow Requirement Using ASHRAE 62.2-2016 Airflow Equation ASHRAE Airflow in CFM = [House Area in Sq.Ft.

  • Page 13: Controls

    CONTROLS A control can be used with the EDHUM070H. Santa Fe offers the DEH 3000 proprietary control. The DEH 3000 monitors and controls relative humidity and proper ventilation levels in their home. This control is also available with a remote sensing option. The EDHUM070H features a built-in dehumidistat control as well as the ability to wire a remote mounted control to the unit.

  • Page 14: Air Filtration

    AIR FILTRATION The EDHUM070H is equipped with a MERV-13 (Dimensions: 0.75” x 9.00” x 11.38”) air filter. The filter should be checked and replaced every three to six months. Operating the unit with a dirty filter will reduce dehumidifier capacity and efficiency.
