General Testing
After you balance the airflow and test the refrigeration circuits, verify that the other equipment
and accessories connected to the dehumidifier work properly. Although this may be difficult,
since the dehumidifier is usually interlocked with a variety of equipment installed by different
contractors, you must not skip this step.
Each of these devices (which may include auxiliary air and water heaters, smoke alarms,
circulating pumps, and a building management system) is vital in maintaining the performance
of the unit. Many customer complaints are caused by improper interlocks between these
devices. Make sure you check the following:
•
Check the outdoor air and exhaust devices. The outdoor air and exhaust dampers
must open when they receive an “occupied” signal from the dehumidifier. If you have
installed an exhaust blower, make sure that it is interlocked with the “occupied” signal
or with an end switch on the outdoor air damper actuator.
•
Check the condensate drain to make sure it has been trapped and primed with water.
Verify that it drains freely, with no leaks. If the drain is outside or in an unconditioned
space, make sure it has been heat traced. If you installed a condensate pump, make
sure it operates properly.
•
Check the operation of the remote condenser (on units equipped with this option).
Make sure that the fans cycling switches, which are mounted on the condenser, are
correctly piped and have been set according to the Desert Aire condenser wiring
diagram. Verify that the fans are blowing air vertically upward when they run.
•
Check the temperature and humidity readings displayed on the controller. If you think
the values are incorrect, check the sensor or its field-installed wiring for damage.
•
Check the operation of the auxiliary heaters by temporarily raising the air temperature
set point on the Desert Aire controller. The duct heater(s) or heating valve should
energize.

Routine Maintenance Schedule
3.6.1 Service Every Month
•
Check the air filters and replace them if necessary.
•
Check the coils in the dehumidifier and the remote condenser. Use
compressed air or a commercial coil cleaner if they are dirty or plugged.
•
Verify that the air flow around the remote condenser remains unobstructed.
