Recommended HVAC System Installations
DUCTING TO HVAC SYSTEMS
The recommended installation pulls air from a dedicated indoor air return and ducts the supply of the
dehumidifier to the air supply of the existing HVAC system. Utilize the optional fresh air ventilation duct to
provide outside air.
• Install a dedicated 8" air return for the Ultra-Aire 70H from a central area of the structure.
• Duct the supply of the Ultra-Aire 70H to the supply of the existing HVAC system with a backdraft damper.
• If the existing system has multiple returns, instead of installing a dedicated return to the Ultra-Aire 70H, it
is possible to select one to disconnect from the existing HVAC system and use it for the dedicated
Ultra-Aire 70H return. Always select a return from a central location in the house that is always open to
the rest of the structure. DO NOT use a return from a room where doors are kept closed.
• DO NOT locate return in a bathroom or kitchen.
• Control should be located remotely from the dehumidifier and placed in a central location.
