Proper installation and electrical grounding is important for obtaining the best possible results from your dehumidifier. This section tells you how to install your unit and how to connect it to the proper electrical supply.
Installing it properly
Personal Injury Hazard
Because your dehumidifier weighs between 50 Ibs. (22.5 kg) and 75 Ibs. (33.75 kg), depending on the amount of water collected in the pan, it is recom- mended that you use proper lifting techniques when lifting or moving your unit.
IFailure to do so could result in personal I
1.Allow at least 12 inches (30.5 cm) of space on all sides of the unit for good air circulation.
2.Install the unit on a floor, table or shelf. When installing the unit on a table or shelf, be sure it is strong enough to support the unit with a full pan of water. A table or shelf may be a better position from which to handle the water pan. Do not sit or stand on this product. The height of a table or shelf may help prevent icing of coils due to colder air near the floor (such as can be found in a basement).
3.Keep all outside doors, windows and other openings closed when dehumidifier is operating. Humid outdoor air will add to the dehumidifier’s operating load.
