The Comfort-D 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� The unit is designed to be installed indoors in a space that is protected from
rain, flooding and/or other forms of excess water. Unit is not designed to be
exposed to chlorinated pool conditions or spaces where unit will be exposed
to corrosive chemicals or conditions�
2� Install the unit with space to access the front panel for maintenance and service�
Also allow easy access to the filter cover panel.
DO NOT INSTALL UNIT
WITH THE FRONT PANEL OR FILTER COVER PANEL INACCESSIBLE.
3� Avoid discharging the air directly at people, over the water in pool areas, or
other areas or objects where dehydration or evaporation of moisture is not
desired�
4� If used near wet areas, be certain there is NO chance the unit could fall
into the water or be splashed and that it is wired into a GROUND FAULT
INTERRUPTER protected circuit�
5� A secondary drain pan
MUST
be placed under the unit if installed above a
living area or above an area where water leakage could cause damage (see
local codes for other requirements)
6. DO NOT
position the Comfort-D directly on structural members where noise or
vibration may be objectionable. The unit is equipped with adjustable support
feet to raise and level the unit from the mounting surface, these adjustable
feet should be utilized to provide improved drainage from the drain pan and
should be adjusted to tilt slightly toward the drain utilized.
7�
The Comfort-D should be located near the existing air handling system to
minimize the required ductwork for connecting of the Comfort-D to the existing
air handling system� When the remote control option is used, the control
(humidistat) unit must be located in the space that is to be conditioned. The
control (humidistat) may be low voltage (24 volt) and should be connected to
the Comfort-D with code approved, low voltage thermostat cable�
8�
When locating the Comfort-D in areas of extreme heat or high humidity,
>120-degrees/90% humidity, additional external insulation may be required to
prevent undesired condensation on the exterior of the unit.
