Install Instructions

LOCATION CONSIDERATIONS
• Allow sufficient clearance for filter removal and to
prevent airflow obstruction
• Electrical service access will require the removal
of the side panel shown� Allow sufficient space for
service on this side of the unit�
• If locating the unit in an attic or crawl space, a
Model 76 Control mounted in the living space is
recommended�
• For attic installations, it is recommended that the
dehumidifier be suspended�
• Always install the dehumidifier in a condensate pan
when locating in or over a finished space�
DRAIN INSTALLATION
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� 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� Remove drain insert before priming and gluing in the PVC fitting� Replace drain insert after PVC glue has
fully dried�
CAUTION
Do not damage drain cover. The drain cover is a critical feature of the dehumidifier drain management system.
WARNING
Running the dehumidifier without the drain insert can lead to condensate leaks. See FIGURE 10.
