LIVING SPACE CONTROL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1. CHOOSE A LOCATION TO MOUNT THE CONTROL

The Model 70 Living Space Control contains its own sensors that override the Aprilaire Central Dehumidifier main control sensors when connected and enabled. Therefore, the control should be located in an area (living room, master bedroom, etc.) where the homeowner wants to monitor and control moisture levels at a convenient location.

MOUNT CONTROL…

Approximately 5 feet off the floor (refer to local codes for compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act).

On an interior wall where the humidity is representative of the home being dehumidified.

At least 18 inches away from an outside wall.

DO NOT MOUNT CONTROL…

Behind doors, in corners or other dead air spaces.

In direct sunlight, near lamps or other sources of heat.

On an outside wall or any wall exposed to an unconditioned space (i.e. garage).

In the airflow path of a supply register or near outside doors.

On a wall where concealed pipes or ductwork will affect the control temperature and relative humidity accuracy.

STEP 2. DISASSEMBLE THE CONTROL

Carefully remove the front cover from the backing plate. See Figure 1.
