POSITIONING THE DEHUMIDIFIER
A badly positioned dehumidifier will have little effect. When positioning the dehumidifier
please ensure circulation of air is not restricted around the unit.
Allow at least 20 cm of space around the
unit. This dehumidifier is designed only for
indoor
residential
or
small
office
applications and any commercial or
industrial use will invalidate the warranty.
Use in an enclosed area for maximum
efficiency. Close all doors and windows to
create an effective operating environment.
Do not use outdoors.
Your electriQ dehumidifier will begin to
protect your space from the harmful
effects of excessive moisture as soon as it
is turned on.
The dehumidifier should be positioned in a central and clear location so that it can draw
this moist air towards it from all over the home. A warm hallway or landing is an
excellent position for your dehumidifier. If possible, leave interior doors ajar to allow
air circulation.
Alternatively, if you have a serious problem in one area you can begin by positioning
the dehumidifier there and moving it to a more central location at a later date. For the
most effective use, run your dehumidifier with external doors and windows kept closed.
Please note the unit should not be placed directly against a radiator or other heat
source.
When positioning your electriQ dehumidifier, ensure that it is placed clear of any
obstacle that may limit the air movement. Place the dehumidifier on a flat dry surface.
NOTE:
Do not force castors to move over carpet or uneven surfaces, or move the unit
with water in the tank as it may tip over and spill water.
