over time. Compressor longevity generally is a function of load, lubrication, electrical input conditions,
and temperatures.
There is a cause for the compressor failures that must be identified before unit is placed back into
full service. Both the identification of the cause of compressor failure and the proper cleanup of the
system must be addressed to avoid repeat compressor damage.

Recommended Duct Design
You must use proper duct design to ensure that the dehumidifier operates efficiently and without
problems. Undersized or restrictive ducts reduce the system airflow, which can cause premature
compressor failure. Use the following diagrams as a guide when you design the duct system.
