2. Installation

2.1 Location

The Santa Fe 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: 

1.  It is designed to be installed 

INDOORS ONLY

.

2 .   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.

3 . 

DO NOT

 use the Santa Fe as a bench or table.

4.   Avoid discharging the air directly at people, especially in pool 

areas.

2.1A In humid area, no ducting.

 

The simplest installation is to place the Santa Fe in the 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.

2.1B In humid area, duct inlet and/or outlet.

 

If the humid are is very large or has high ceilings, 
dehumidification can be improved by adding an inlet and/or 
outlet duct to circulate and destratify stagnant areas. For a 
large are, add inlet or outlet ducting to create flow across the 
area’s greatest length. For areas with ceilings higher than 12’, 
use an inlet duct to draw warm, moist air from near the ceiling. 
See section 2.4 for attaching duct collars & ducting.

2.1C In A Remote Area, Duct Inlet & Outlet. 

It is often desirable, especially in pool rooms and finished 
areas, to install the Santa Fe in an adjacent equipment room 
or unfinished area. Air is transferred between the humid room 
and the unit via ducting. The factory mounted humidity control 
on the Santa Fe cabinet may not sense the humidity in the 
humid room accurately enough with this installation method. If 
so, an additional humidity control can be mounted in the humid 
room and wired to the Santa Fe. Local electrical codes must be 
followed when wiring the control.
