POSITIONING A DEHUMIDIFIER
For best results, operate your dehumidifiers in an
enclosed area, as this creates a drying chamber. Close
all doors and windows that open to the outside to
maximise the unit’s water removal efficiency. Also, keep
traffic though the drying chamber to a minimum. Place
your LGR1800 dehumidifier against a wall, away from
obstructions, and keep it away from anything that could
block airflow into and out of the unit.
IMPORTANT: Before moving the unit, make sure there’s
no water in the pump. See how to use the PURGE
function under “How to Use the Control Panel” on page
3.
Managing temperature rise
Controling temperature in the drying environment is
critical. The most accurate way to monitor temperature is
with a thermo-hygrometer; however, you can use an
indoor/outdoor thermometer to gauge temperature. For
improved accuracy, take temperature readings in in the
center of the room, away from the airflow of the
dehumidifier.
Dri-Eaz dehumidifiers warm the air as they remove
moisture. Optimal drying temperatures range from 20–
29°C (68–85°F). This may require the use of the
building’s HVAC (heating and air conditioning) system. If
heating and cooling is not available at the site, contact
Dri-Eaz and a Technical Specialist will help you find an
appropriate solution.
