Fresh Air Return

If your system includes the optional fresh air return, it will have an
outside air intake. Check and clean the hood screen on the
outside air intake seasonally. The intake hood screen must
remain clear of any debris that could restrict airflow into the
dehumidifier.

UVC Germicidal Light

WGDH160UH and WGDV160UH models are equipped with UVC
germicidal ultraviolet lights. The bulb for the germicidal ultraviolet
light is rated for at least 9,000 hours (1 year) when used in
accordance with the whole house dehumidifier installation
instructions. The bulb may last longer in some situations, but
annual bulb replacement is recommended since UVC ouput is
typically reduced by about 25 percent at 9,000 hours and drops
off more rapidly afterward.
CAUTION: UV Light Hazard RG-3. Harmful to bare skin and
eyes. Can cause temporary or permanent loss of vision.
Never look at the lamps while illuminated. This heating/air
conditioning system is equipped with an ultraviolet air
treatment system. To prevent exposure to ultraviolet light,
disconnect power to the ultraviolet air treatment system
before servicing any part of the heating/air conditioning
system.
