4.1 Installation Checklist

ImPORTANT: Prior to installation of the
dehumidifier, the following checklist should
be reviewed.
The dehumidifier 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

length (10') should easily reach a 115 VAC electrical
outlet with a minimum of a 15 A circuit capacity.

4.1B Accessibility

The installed dehumidifier should have at least 14
inches of clearance in the front of the device to
service the filter.
