BASIC STEPS
Ensure that all EXTERNAL doors and
windows are CLOSED. Where no doors
or windows are fitted, temporarily screen
off the openings.
POSITIONING
For small areas position centrally in the
area to be dried. For larger areas such
as open plan buildings, offices or
factories, a number of dryers may be
required, in such cases they should be
spaced evenly around the area. Ensure
that no unit is positioned is such a way
that it blows directly into another.
For private houses or flats, position the
dryer on one floor at a time, starting at
the lowest floor, closing all internal doors
on the floor previously dried. Continue
until all floor levels have been dried.
Note when a particular damp patch is to
be dried out the air outlet grille should be
directed towards that area but should
NEVER be closer than 1m to the
surface. At no time should the inlet or
outlet grilles be covered or obstructed.
DRAINAGE
Under most operating conditions water
will be produced continuously and it is
important that it is drained away correctly
and not allowed to spill. Any spillage will
evaporate and will, therefore, have to be
recycled through the dryer again, which
in effect, only prolongs the drying period.
PORTABLE CONTAINERS
Position
a
closed
top
container
underneath the water discharge pipe
(approximately 8 litres capacity). Place
a short length of pipe one end over the
discharge pipe and the other end in the
container. Use a transparent container,
this will enable you to check the level of
water and so prevent it from overflowing.
As the unit will be running for long
periods of time, a regular check should
be made on the container water level.
PERMANENT DRAINAGE
Connect a flexible hose to the water
discharge pipe of sufficient length so that
it will reach a permanent drain. The
gravity head created will allow for a
gradual fall from the unit to the drain.
Ensure that the hose is free of kinks and
is not allowed to rise at any point above
the level of the discharge point from the
dehumidifier. Any air locks which may
be created, should the level be raised by
the hose passing over obstructions,
could cause the water to “back up” the
hose and spill from the dryer.
SWITCHING ON
Check the voltage selection switch is set
to the correct voltage. (Dual voltage
machines only) Plug the unit into the
power supply and switch on.
SWITCHING OFF
Turn
off
the
power
supply
and
disconnect.
