The HI-E Dry can be installed in a variety of locations 
to meet the owner’s needs as listed below. In all cases 
keep the following cautions in mind:

•  It is designed to be installed 

INDOORS ONLY.

•  If used near a pool or spa, be certain there is 

NO

 

chance the unit could roll into the water or be 
splashed and that it is plugged into a 

GROUND FAULT 

INTERRUPTER.

•  

DO NOT

 use the HI-E Dry as a bench or table.

•  Avoid discharging the air directly at people, especially 

in pool areas.

2.1A In Humid Area, No Ducting

humid area with no ducting. The air inlet on top & outlet 
on the side must be at least 1’ from walls and other 
obstructions to air flow.
