point. It opens when the RH drops 4 to 6% below the set point. If the Ultra-Aire does not run, try turning the humidity control clockwise until it reaches the stop and the knob pointer points at “ON”.

The Ultra-Aire is equipped with a automatic defrost mechanism. If the Ultra-Aire operates in conditions that develop frost on the evaporator, it will sense the frost build-up and automatically defrost the evaporator. The Ultra-Aire may not appear to be operating correctly during the defrost sequence, but once the defrost is completed, the Ultra-Aire will resume dehumidifying.

7.7B Programmable Ventilation Timer

The ventilation timer controls the fan and the motorized fresh air damper. When the ventilation timer is activated, the central conditioning unit will circulate the indoor air, and bring in fresh air from outside. The ventilation timer should be set for the required ventilation of the residence. The home should be ventilated with fresh air whenever it is occupied. If the Ultra-Aire fails to ventilate as expected, check that the time on the timer is correct. For the timer to carry out the program schedule, the slide switch in the upper left corner on the timer must be set to “AUTO”. The slide switch in the upper right corner of the Ultra-Aire must be set to “RUN”. Also check the programs on the timer to be sure that the timer is calling for ventilation at the correct times. If the timer fails to operate or operates erratically, reset the timer; see section 3.5 of this manual.

7.8 Defrost Thermostat

The defrost thermostat is attached to the refrigerant suction tube between the accumulator and the compressor. It will automatically shut the compressor off if the low side refrigerant temperature drops due to excessive frost formation on the evaporator coil.

The fan will continue to run, causing air to flow through the evaporator coil and melt the ice. When the ice has melted, the evaporator temperature will rise and the thermostat will restart the compressor.

7.9 Electric Ventilation Damper

The electric ventilation damper is controlled by the ventilation timer. The damper will open when the ventilation timer is activated to allow fresh air into the structure through the 6" diameter fresh air inlet duct. The electric ventilation damper will remain closed when the ventilation timer is not activated to prevent over-ventilating the structure when the unit is dehumidifying or recirculating the indoor air.

The electric ventilation timer operates on 24 Vac from the control circuit. DO NOT connect high voltage to the damper motor or damage to the motor may result. DO NOT force the blade of the damper by hand or damage to the damper motor may result.

The damper opens in one direction only. The damper rotates very slowly, allow sufficient time for the damper to cycle. The damper will take approximately 1 minute to cycle from closed to open or from open to closed.

If the electric ventilation damper fails to operate:

1.Check that the wiring is correct and that voltage is present at the damper motor.

2.Check for any obstruction inside the damper.

If the electric ventilation damper fails to operate after performing these checks, it must be replaced.
