GENERAL OPERATION The function of your dehumidifier is to reduce the indoor humidity levels and increase comfort. It is a high capacity dehumidifier able to remove up to 125 pints of water per day (80° F DBT / 60% RH). An internal humidity sensor (dehumidistat) senses when the relative humidity (RH) is above the set point (example: 50% RH) and signals the dehumidifier to operate until the relative humidity level has been lowered to the set point.
Make certain that the unit is sitting on all four mounting feet. • To suspend the unit, a separate hanger kit (HD18 for the DH70 or DH90 models, HD19 for the DH125 model, or suitable alternative) is required. This kit consists of two brackets and four rubber isolators.
If necessary, the outlet duct collar may be moved to the top of the unit for vertical discharge of the airflow. For the DH70 & DH90, remove the screws and swap the top panel with the outlet duct collar panel, the panels are interchangeable.
DRAIN INSTALLATION The DH70, DH90 and DH125 units use an internal condensate pump to drain the water that is removed from the air. The pump will operate as needed, which may be frequently if the air is more humid than normal or less frequently if drier.

Installation Options STAND ALONE OR NOT DUCTED TO HVAC SYSTEMS In this installation the dehumidifier is not ducted to the HVAC system and is used to dehumidify a specific area. This installation is typically used in basements, attics or crawl spaces. Optional Components 8”...
DUCTED TO HVAC SYSTEMS - Independent Operation The dehumidifier is installed so that the dehumidifier and the central heating or air conditioning system fans operate separately of each other (Independent Operation) Duct Connections. In this arrangement, the dehumidifier is connected across or in parallel with the heating or air conditioning system.
DUCTED TO HVAC SYSTEMS - Dependent Operation Duct Connections. In this arrangement, the dehumidifier is connected either upstream or downstream of the heating or air conditioning system. Both the discharge and the return of the dehumidifier are connected to the same side of the system.
DUCTING TO HVAC SYSTEM – BASEMENT OR ATTIC INSTALLATIONS Independent Operation Mode In cool damp climates, where the HVAC system runs infrequently or for short periods, Independent Operation mode is the preferred mode of operation. The short cycle times of the HVAC system, while keeping the temperature in control, does not effectively control the humidity level (not enough time to remove the excess humidity from the dwelling).
DUCTING TO HVAC SYSTEM – CLOSET INSTALLATIONS The dehumidifier in these applications is typically installed under or next to the HVAC equipment. In both types of installation, the dehumidifier inlet is not ducted and pulls air from the living space through a grille or louvers in the HVAC closet door.
