5. Controls

The Quest Dry can be equipped with various accessories to enhance its operation. A remote control must be used with 

the Quest Dry. ThermaStor offers the DEH 3000 proprietary controller. The DEH 3000 allows homeowners the 

ability to monitor and control relative humidity levels in their home. This control is also offered witha remote sensing 

option.

WARNING: 

DO NOT 

allow the yellow lead from the unit to contact the red lead or the white 

lead from the unit or damage to the transformers will result.

The Quest Dry is controlled using five color-coded wires.
Green (or brown) = Fan control 

Blue = Dehumidification (fan and compressor) control 

Red = 24volt AC power transformer neutral side (common with white) 

White = 24volt AC power transformer neutral side (common with red) 

Yellow = transformer high side 
Between the red/white lead and the yellow leads is a 40VA transformer. This low voltage power source powers the relay 

coils which control the fan and compressors. This 24VAC transformer can also be used to power HVAC assessories 

external to the dehumidifier.

•  To turn the dehumidifier on make contact between yellow and blue wires.
•  To turn the fan on make contact between yellow and green(or brown) wires.
•  To power an HVAC accessory, connect the accessory to the white (or red) wire and the yellow wire.
