DRAIN INSTALLATION
CONDENSATE PUMP AND FLOAT SWITCH
The drain outlet on the dehumidifier can be hard piped using a 3/4” PVC Slip x 3/4” MNPT fitting and 3/4” nominal drain tubing or the provided
3/4” MNPT x 3/4” hose barb fitting and 3/4” clear PVC tubing can be used to drain the dehumidifier. Always maintain a constant downward
slope from the dehumidifier to the drain and do not allow soft tubing to curl up which may result in air lock. NOTE: PTFE thread seal tape is
recommended for the threaded connection and hand tighten only. If hard pipe is used, PVC primer and cement is recommended for the slip fit
connection.
A level surface is required to ensure proper drainage from the dehumidifier.
Always install the dehumidifier in a condensate pan when locating in or above a finished space. Adhere to local codes regarding draining of the
condensate pan.
If a condensate pump is needed, install it in the condensate pan if
installed.
Install a condensate overflow safety switch (i.e. float switch) in the
condensate pan, remove the factory installed jumper wire between
the Float Switch terminals on the control and wire the float switch
to the dehumidifier as shown in Figure 3. Overflow safety switches
on condensate pumps can be wired to the Float Switch terminals in
a similar fashion.
