The Ultra-Aire 100V generates condensate.
Place a secondary drain pan under the dehumidifier if it is suspended above a finished area or above an
area where water leakage could cause damage.
Condensate drains by gravity via the clear hose extending from the unit. Route the hose to a floor drain. Use
care to keep the hose as flat to the floor as possible; excessive humps will prevent proper drainage. We do
not call for a trap since there is an internal trap with this unit. If the Ultra-Aire 100V is located too far from a
floor drain for the attached hose to reach, inexpensive 1⁄2" PVC pipe can be used to extend it. It is commonly
available in 10' lengths from building supply, plumbing and hardware stores. It will slide tightly inside the end
of the drain hose. If more than one length of pipe is required, they can be joined with a short piece cut from the
end of the drain hose.
An optional condensate pump kit is available for use with the Ultra-Aire 100V 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.
The pump also contains a safety float
switch. The white leads from this
switch extend from beneath the pump
cover. This switch should be installed
in series with the field wire that
connects to the common lead from
the Ultra-Aire 100V to the control panel.
If the pump fails, this switch opens
the common control circuit and stops
water production before the reservoir
overflows. Contact a qualified electrician
to install the safety float switch to the
Ultra-Aire 100V dehumidifier.
Note: An optional condensate pump
kit can be purchased through your
dealer or online.
