INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Proper installation of this dehumidifier is very important for maximum service and performance.
INSPECTION:
Thoroughly inspect the dehumidifier inside and out to insure that no damage has occurred during
shipping.
(If any damage is found, a claim should be made to the shipping company immediately)
.
If your unit includes a condensing unit, the condensing unit and refrigerant lines should be inspected for
shipping damage. All flared connections should be checked for tightness.
PLACING THE MACHINE:
The dehumidifier should be carefully set in place and leveled. The equipment must be supported
adequately to prevent unnecessary flex in the structural skid. Support below the lifting lugs is the minimum
required. Refer to the Unit Outline drawing in this manual, for minimum clearance space required on each
side of the dehumidifier for maintenance and servicing. Remove any external packaging or crating before
connecting ductwork.
ELECTRICAL:
All local and state codes must be strictly adhered to and good electrical practices should be followed to
achieve the best installation possible.
Power wiring to equipment must be adequately sized for minimum amperage as shown on the unit
nameplate. If a disconnect switch is not furnished with your particular unit, one should be installed adjacent
to the unit for both safety and servicing.
Equipment wiring diagram should be examined and thoroughly understood before field-wiring
connections are made. (See Electrical Schematic drawing in the back of this manual).
The power supply should be checked to be certain that the supply voltage agrees with the
equipment nameplate. Serious damage to motors and controls can occur if incorrect voltage is
applied.
