WARNING!
4.3 Electrical Requirements
The Santa Fe Advance2 plugs into a common grounded outlet
on a 110-120 VAC 15-Amp circuit. While operating, it draws
less than 6 amps @ 80°F, 60% RH and less than 5.5 amps @
75°F, 50% RH. Use of a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
protected circuit is recommended. The unit should not be used
in areas prone to flooding.
4.4 Installing Feet
Included with your Santa Fe
Advance2 are four leveling
feet. It is important to level the
unit for proper draining.
Installing Leveling Feet
See Figure 2 for installing leveling feet.
1. Lay down a protective pad (pillow, blanket, etc.).
2. Carefully turn unit onto side opposite drain port.
3. Align leveling foot shaft with one of the four threaded
hole locations as shown in Figure 2.
4. Screw each leveling foot in ten revolutions.
5. Carefully bring unit to upright position.
6. Level unit for proper water drainage.
7. Wait 10 minutes before operating.
CAUTION!
Note: Operating the unit immediately after bringing it to an
upright position can possibly damage the compressor. A
short amount of time is needed (10 minutes) to allow the oil
to return to it’s reservoir for lubrication.
CAUTION!
For proper drainage, the
unit must be mounted so the drain outlet is at
least 4" above the floor drain, and must be fully
supported under the base.
4.5 Condensate Water Removal
The Santa Fe Advance2 drains via gravity, therefore, it does not
have the ability to push condensate (water) uphill. The drain
hose must run downhill toward the drain location. Condensate
can be drained by using the 5/8” clear vinyl hose and the 3/4”
threaded adapter provided. Ensure the threaded adapter is
threaded in tightly.

CAUTION!
The Santa Fe Advance2 requires a drain trap. Creating a drain
trap allows a small amount of water to build up in the trap area
of the clear hose. This prevents air from back flowing through
the hose and into the dehumidifier; essentially causing the unit
to backflow water out of the corners of the machine. Position
the trap in the hose approximately 8"-10” from the dehumidi-
fier and make sure the highest point of the trap is still at least
2”below the black drain port adapter on the dehumidifier. If the
highest point of the trap is above the drain port, water will back
flow into the dehumidifier. Check the hose regularly to ensure
water is draining properly.
Several trap options include:
