 WARNING!

4.2 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.

 

4.3 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.

4.4 Condensate Water Removal

The Santa Fe Advance2 drains via a gravity system - it is not 
able 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 hose and adapter provided, 

or by using a male 3/4" NPT PVC pipe. Using either option, 
care must be taken installing adaptor to the drain port. Use 
standard condensate drain routing practices outlined when 
routing the drain line.

Be sure the hose is not kinked or otherwise restricted so that 
water can pass through it. Improper hose installation may 
result in water leakage.
To increase the efficiency of the unit, position the hose to 
create a “trap” as shown in Figure 3. By creating a trap, it will 
hold a small amount of water. Position the trap on the hose 
approximately 12" to 20" away from the unit. Check hose 
regularly to ensure it is clear and water is draining properly.
If floor drain is not 
easily accessible, a 
condensate pump 
kit with a 20' hose is 
available. Contact your 
dealer or order online if 
you are interested in ordering the pump.

 CAUTION!

  

Remove compressor shipping 

tie from the unit.  Failure to remove shipping tie 

will cause excess vibration to be transmitted to 

the frame.

5. Ducting

5.1 Duct Kit (P/N 4033039)

A factory designed outlet duct kit can be purchased to 
accept 10" ducting to both outlets of the Santa Fe Advance2. 
Contact your dealer or order online.

6. Operation

6.1 Humidity Control Adjustment

The humidity control is an adjustable switch that closes when 

the relative humidity of the air in which it is located rises to 

the dial set point. It opens when the RH drops 4 to 6% below 

the set point.

Approximate Humidity Levels Per Setting:
“Drier”   20% to 30% Relative Humidity
“Normal”   45% to 55% Relative Humidity  

 

(Recommended)

“Humid”  80% to 90% Relative Humidity
