Humidex

Preparing the Humidex for Installation

Measure the required Unit height. Remember that the units cannot be higher than 3”

to 6” off the ground. This is crucial for the DVS-CS/CH and DVS-HW models as

they are not adjustable in height like the DVS-BS/BH model is. (DVS-CS/CH

Models can allow for up to 12”)

From the inside, drill a pilot

hole of approximately ¼” at

the center of the proposed

6¼” hole.

Outside the building, find the

pilot hole. Using a hole-saw,

with the pilot hole as a guide,

drill a 6¼” hole.

Brick or Concrete Wall: There are two ways of going through brick or concrete.

The first method consists of using a hammer drill. Make holes (approximately 5/8”)

with the hammer drill 1” apart through the brick in a circular shape outlining the 6

¼” hole. Finish cutting the outer edge of the hole using a chisel. If a hammer drill is

not available, a chisel can be used. As brick is brittle chiseling from the center of the

pilot hole will chip the brick easily. Continue chiseling until you reach the outer edge

of the 6 ¼” hole.

For DVS-BS/BH Models: Join

the 2 halves (bottom section

must fit inside the top section).

Overlap the two pieces until the

desired height is obtained. Secure

the 2 halves with 9/16” screws.

If necessary, Use the cover plate

to close the gap. Using aluminum

or duct tape, seal the seam in the

back where the 2 halves join

together.

Note: If the unit has to be shorter than 86.5”, cut the top of the bottom part.
