    ATTACHING DUCT COLLARS Fresh Air Ventilation Duct Fresh air ventilation is optional. A 6" diameter duct is attached to the unit. The 6" duct should be capped if fresh air is not desired. If setting up the unit to provide fresh air ventilation, see page 10. Return Air Inlet A 10"...
  • Page 8: Electrical Requirements

    ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS The Dehumidifier plugs into a common grounded 115 VAC outlet. 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 9: Drain Installation

    DRAIN INSTALLATION Drain Port The Dehumidifier generates condensate. Place a secondary drain pan with a float switch under the dehumidifier if it is suspended above a finished Secondary Drain Pan area or above an area where water leakage could cause damage. Drain Trap A drain trap is required for the dehumidifier to drain properly.
  • Page 10: Ducting To Hvac Systems

    DUCTING TO HVAC SYSTEMS The recommended installation creates a separate return for the Dehumidifier in a central area of the structure. Duct the supply of the unit to the air supply of the existing HVAC system. Connect an insulated duct from outside to the 6" collar of the Dehumidifier to provide fresh make-up air. CAUTION! CAUTION! DO NOT CONNECT WITH A STATIC PRESSURE GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO +0.5 WG.
  • Page 11: Recommended Hvac System Installation

    DUCTING TO HVAC SYSTEMS Recommended HVAC System Installation The recommended installation draws air from a dedicated indoor air return and ducts the supply of the dehumidifier to the air supply of the existing HVAC system. Utilize the optional fresh air ventilation duct to provide outside air.
  • Page 12: Fresh Air Ventilation

    FRESH AIR VENTILATION Fresh air ventilation is optional. Fresh air may be brought into the structure by connecting an insulated duct from outside the structure to the 6" inlet of the Dehumidifier. A ventilation control is needed to program the time and frequency that the unit introduces outside air.
  • Page 13: 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 14: Controls

    To prevent damage to the 24 volt control Rear View transformer, the Dehumidifier comes with a resettable circuit breaker. Check wiring for any EDHUM098 EDHUM120 electrical short and repair before resetting breaker. Resetting the circuit breaker without correcting the electrical short may result in transformer damage.
  • Page 15 Dehumidifier may not be used. Be sure to consult the electrical schematic in this manual or inside the access panel of the Dehumidifier before making control connections. A low voltage control must be used with the Dehumidifier. EDHUM098 Terminal Block Control Operation: 24VAC Power Transformer Neutral Side Fan Control Transformer High Side...
  • Page 16: Air Filtration

    AIR FILTRATION The Dehumidifier is equipped with a MERV-13 (Dimensions: 1.75” x 14.00” x 17.50”) 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. DO NOT operate the unit without the recommended filter.
