Setting Up The Dehumidifier - Ideal Air 700899 Owner's Manual

Setting up the dehumidifier

PLACE IN ENCLOSED AREA: For best results, operate the dehumidifier
in an enclosed area to create a "drying chamber." Close all doors and
windows that open to external areas to maximize the dehumidifier's
water removal efficiency. Keep traffic through the drying chamber to a
minimum. Place the dehumidifier in the center of the room away from
walls and furnishings where airflow may be obstructed.
PROPER AIRFLOW IS ESSENTIAL! Do not place this dehumidifier in a
position where the front Air Intake Grill or rear Air Outlet is blocked by
walls, furniture or any other obsruction. Do not attach ductwork to the
unit as airflow restrictions will result.
ENSURE PROPER DRAINAGE: This dehumidifier contains a built-in pump
that connects to a drainage hose which is stored in the back of the unit.
Uncoil the entire hose to ensure that there are no kinks or restrictions and

water piped to the outdoors does not create a slipping hazard. To avoid
damaging or overworking the pump, do not exceed a 10 foot vertical lift
height between the pump and drain.
