PRINCIPLES OF DEHUMIDIFICATION The Aprilaire ® Dehumidifier controls the humidity level in your crawl space. A powerful blower inside the dehumidifier draws air into the cabinet, filters the air and removes moisture, then discharges the dry air into the crawl space. Inside the cabinet, a sealed refrigeration system removes moisture by moving the air through the evaporator coil that is kept colder than the dew point of the incoming air.

SETTING THE DESIRED HUMIDITY LEVEL The dehumidifier can be set up to control based on dew point or relative humidity (%RH). DEW POINT CONTROL The dehumidifier on-board control will display the dryness setting TABLE 1 – %RH (+/- 5%) Based on Dryness Setting and when not running, and displays the measured humidity when running.

CHECK THE DRAIN The drain should be checked annually to ensure there are no blockages or air lock in the drain system. If the unit is not draining properly, have it checked by a qualified service professional. IMPORTANT! The drain insert is a critical feature of the dehumidifier drain management system. This component is required for the dehumidifier to run properly.
