INTRODUCTION
The CMC100 reduces humidity in enclosed structural environ-
ments by removing water vapor from the air. With proper use,
the CMC100 can help to dry out damp structural materials,
insulation, and contents, and maintain a healthy level of humid-
ity. Using the CMC100 may also prevent secondary damage
caused by high humidity.
How the CMC100 works
The CMC100 refrigerant dehumidifier uses a fan to draw moist
air in and condenses it into water that collects in a tray and is
automatically pumped out through a drain hose. A humidistat
automatically shuts the unit off when the desired level of hu-
midity has been achieved.
Features:
•
Industrial-quality dehumidifier removes up to 70 pints (33
liters) of water per day.
•
Automatic humidistat control means set-and-forget con-
venience.
•
Ductable outlet for flexible application.
•
Recessed handles for easy positioning in confined spac-
es.
•
Interchangeable intake and output panels allow for use is
a wide variety of settings.
•
Quiet operation and low power consumption.
•
The CMC100 has been awarded
the ENERGY STAR
INSTALLATION
Location
The CMC100 works best in an en-
closed area, as this creates a drying
chamber. Excessive infiltration of
damp air will increase operating time.
WARNING
NOTICE:
Upon receipt of your CMC100,
inspect it carefully for damage.
Set up and test unit in a tempo-
rary location for proper operation
before installing permanently.
