Protection against freezing and storage

You should be cognizant of two aspects when you sore the Abestorm® SLGR Elite unit. The water 

that is trapped inside the unit is responsible for these issues. The water may cause the growth of 

mold and other primitive organisms. The same water can also freeze in the unit and cause 

unforeseen damage.  Therefore, you are well-advised to make sure that most of the water if not all 

is removed before you store your unit for a significant duration. 

1. You can make use of the button for the pump purge to help you to expel 
water from the pump reservoir.

2. You need to pull the hose until it flattens to expunge all the water in it. Lift one end of the hose 
over your head while you are draining it on the far end.

3. To stop growth inside the unit, make sure that your spray the unit using a fungicide. Make sure 
that the spray you use is approved for use on polyethylene, aluminium and copper surfaces. To 
effectively flash:

a. Drain the hose by draining it

b. Insert the unit into the power source but avoid turning it on

c. Drain the hose by running it

d. Pull out the air filter and pour a small amount of the antimicrobial reagent 
via the heat exchanger

e. Push the purge switch of the pump to lower the level of water in the reservoir

f.  Flush using water 

4. In case the dehumidifier will be, left in freezing temperatures, following the purging. You 
should pull the filter back and pour a cup of 8oz of an antifreeze reagent with Propylene glycol. 
Put it via the heat exchanger. It will stream into the reservoir of the pump. Avoid purging the 
solution from the unit.

5. If filters are dirty, they should be replaced if the unit is going to be stored for a long time. This 
precaution will prevent microbial from growing on the filter

Technical Description

The unit a system of refrigeration that is similar to an air conditioning system to expunge 

excess moisture from the space it is deployed, and to increase the temperature of the air that 

is discharged from the system. The compressor releases high-pressure refrigerant gas that is 

hot and directs it to the condenser coil. The refrigerant releases its heat to the air that is 

consequently released from the system. The refrigerant is cooled and condensed. The liquid 

refrigerant is passed through a filter and a tuning which reduces the pressure of the refrigerant. 

Next, it is channeled through the evaporator coil where it absorbs heat from the air streaming 

in and changes into vapour. The evaporator works in flooding conditions. The implication is 

that the evaporator tubes contain the refrigerant in liquid form when operating normally. Thus, 

if an evaporator is flooded, it should keep constant temperature and pressure across the coil 

right from the inlet to where it releases. The gas and liquid refrigerant mix go into the 

compressor after it leaves the evaporator coil. Finally, the compressor forces the cool 

refrigerant gas out and compresses it to high temperature and pressure yet again. The cycle 

continues.
