Wiring Schematic..........................Troubleshooting..........................Warranty Information........................Safety Notes The IW-25-4 Dehumidifier must always be connected using a grounded electrical connection as required for all electrical appliances. The warranty is voided and all responsibility for the operation is born by the owner if non-grounded wiring is utilized. The IW-25-4 Dehumidifier must only be installed, maintained and serviced by a qualified technician. Follow all state and local plumbing and electric codes. The IW-25-4 Dehumidifier is intended only for operation when the unit is wall mounted or in wall and level. Any other orientation could cause water to contact electrical components. If any water may have spread throughout the unit, the unit should be opened and allowed to dry thoroughly before reconnecting to electric and restarting. For proper operation, no obstruction should be located within 36” of the discharge of the unit Do not insert any objects or fingers into the inlet or discharge. If service is required, call a qualified technician. All work on unit should be done with the unit “off” and unplugged or the breaker turned “off.” Do not use water to clean the unit exterior. Only use a damp cloth to clean the exterior and always unplug or disconnect the power of unit first.
The drain hose must be installed to ensure the proper flow of condensate water to a drain source. Identification: For future reference, write down the model, serial number, date of purchase so you can identify your unit when seeking assistance in the future. The data label on the side of your unit has key characteristics of your specific unit. Model Number IW-25-4 Serial Number _____________________________ Date of Purchase _____________________________ For additional questions concerning the operation of your dehumidifier, please: Contact your installing contractor Please call Innovative Dehumidifier systems, LLC. Support Team at 910-579-3348 Electrical Supply: Power Supply: 120 V, 60 Hz AC, Single Phase Outlet Requirement: 3-Prong, GFCI Circuit Protector: 15 Amp Time Delay Fuse or Circuit Breaker WARNING : 120 Volts AC may cause serious injury from electric shock. To ensure safety: 1. Disconnect electrical power before servicing 2. Only plug unit into grounded electrical circuit 3. Do not use extension cord 4. Do not use plug adapter Principle of Operation The IW-25-4 Dehumidifier utilizes its integral humidistat to monitor the conditioned space. When the relative humidity goes above the selected set point, the dehumidifier will energize. Air is drawn across an evaporator coil, which is cooler than the dew point of air. This means moisture will condense out of the air. The air is then reheated through the condenser coil and distributed back into the room.

Dehumidifier Installation Step 1. Cut the two zip ties, remove the three screws from the shipping bracket, then remove the shipping bracket. Fasten mounting tabs (4) with screws provided to the chassis (In-Wall Only) Attach mounting tabs to chassis for in-wall mounting only CAUTION: Location of Electric Control Box, Water Collect Tray Step 2. Connect power to unit using either included 10’ power cord or the unit can be hardwired. WARNING! SHUT OFF BREAKER / POWER /Make sure power cord is unplugged BEFORE Wiring Unit. There are two reserved power cord holes, one on the back and one on the bottom of the unit. Remove appropriate knock out as needed. Complete electrical connections: • White to White (L) • Green to Green (GRN) • Black to Black (N)

After complete electrical connections, slide electrical connection inside unit, fasten the strain relief to the power cord and then snap it on the selected power cord holes. All state and local electrical codes must be adhered to for proper unit operation and warranty compliance. Step 3. The drain hose can be routed through the back, side, or bottom of the unit. Remove the appropriate knock-out or plug for your application. Pipe Connection (No Pump): Step 4. Slide the grommet over the drain hose and snap into place at the selected drain location. Use hex nut screwdriver to apply hose clamp to the drain hose.
IN-WALL ONLY – SEE PAGE 9 for Balance of ON-WALL Installation Instructions NOTE: If mounting unit to drywall, position mounting template so that 1 of the keyhole mounting locations is on a stud. Step 5. Select mounting location between two studs. Step 6. Using the mounting template on the front cover box, mark install location on wall. Step 7. Cut hole. (Rough Opening Dimensions: 28.0” x 14.5” 5.75”) Step 8. Lift the unit and place it near the wall opening to route electrical wires and drain hose through appropriate knockouts. Step 9. Once electrical and drain hose are routed through the unit, set the unit into the wall. Step 10. The chassis of the units slips in the wall from the front and is secured by the four mounting tabs with screws (not provided). Ensure the unit is level and the bottom of the unit is supported before screwing through the drywall and into the studs. Step 11. Connect the drain line to the drain source making sure to have adequate slope on the drain hose. Step 12. Turn breaker/power back on. Step 13. Set the digital controller to desired RH. See Operating Instructions (Page 12) Step 14. Install diffuser cover by aligning the lower tabs first, then setting the cover back against the wall. Insert the included four tamper-resistant screws to secure the diffuser cover.
ON-WALL ONLY (SEE PAGE 8 for IN-WALL Specific Instructions) Step 5: Install 2 screws on the wall (Select appropriate hardware based on application). Leave screw head 3/16” out from the wall surface to allow the unit to be slipped over the screws into the teardrop shaped hanger holes on the rear of the dehumidifier. Step 6: Hanging the unit on the wall Position keyhole mounting slots over screws in wall. Allow unit to drop onto screws.

Step 7: Secure the unit with the 2 safety mounting screws. Step 8. Turn breaker/power back on. Step 9. Set the digital controller to desired RH. See Operating Instructions (Page 12) Step 10. Install diffuser cover by aligning the lower tabs first, then setting the cover back against the wall. Insert the included four tamper-resistant screws (2 tamper-resistant screws on the left and right sides and 2 tamper-resistant screws on the bottom) to secure the diffuser cover.
Optional Condensate Pump Installation: SHUT OFF BREAKER / POWER BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION. 1. Remove the shipping to prepare for installation of pump assembly. 2. Insert included ¾” DIA short drain line into pump reservoir. This drain line will eventually connect to water drain tray. 3. Insert condensate pump into chassis while routing attached drain line and check valve through desired chassis drain hole location (back, bottom, side). 4. Attach pump to chassis with included screw. 5. Connect other end of short ¾” DIA drain line to drain on drain tray just about pump reservoir insuring that other end of ¾” DIA line remains in pump reservoir. 6. Connect power supply line from circuit board to power line from condensate pump 7. Connect float switch line from circuit board to switch line from condensate pump 8. Connect included long condensate line to check valve connected to pump. Route condensate line to desired drain. NOTE: Pump can pump up approximately 10’. After initial vertical rise, condensate line must flow down to drain without any additional loops or vertical rises.
