3.2 Mounting The Remote Humidity Sensor/Controller
If the Vehere is to be located in a remote location outside
the pool or spa area, mounting of the humidity sensor in
the space to be conditioned is necessary. If the humidity
sensor is not located in the conditioned space, the Vehere
will not operate properly.
IMPORTANT: Locate the humidity element on an inside wall, free
from drafts, out of direct sunlight, and where the element is not
exposed to excessive vibration. Be careful not to drop the unit.
Mount the wall mount element at a height of 4 to 6 feet (1.2 to
1.8 m) above the floor.
To mount the HI-E DRY Vehere dehumidistat on a wall
for remote application, first remove the cover from the
controller by lifting the side of the controller cover over the
catch tabs on both sides. The cover comes off easily.
Hold the unit to the surface you would like to mount it on.
You will need to mark the locations for two screw holes
and one square knockout to accommodate wires and the
devices wire guard. The wire-guard tabs fit inside the wall.
(See Fig. 6, 7)
Once marked, drill a 1/8” hole for each mounting screw
location and tap the provided anchor mount into the hole.
Use the provided screws to then mount the humidity
control to the wall. Route the wiring through the hole you
have created and connect wires according to the directions
found in this manual. Replace plastic housing.
3.3 Electrical Requirements
The Vehere can be plugged into any grounded 20 Amp
circuit. At 80°F, 60% RH, it draws 11.6 Amps. A dedicated
20 Amp circuit is recommended.
3.4 Condensate Removal
Condensate drains by gravity via the clear hose extending
from the unit. Route the 4’ drain hose to a floor drain.
Use care to keep the hose as flat to the floor as possible.
Keep the hose away from walk ways if possible. Excessive
humps or kinks will prevent proper drainage. If the Vehere
is located too far from a floor drain for the attached hose
to reach, inexpensive 1/2” PVC pipe can be used to
extend it. It is commonly available in 10’ lengths from
building supply, plumbing and hardware stores. It will slide
tightly inside the end of the drain hose. If more than one
length of pipe is required, they can be joined with a short
piece cut from the end of the drain hose.
3.5 Ducting
3.5A Ducting kit
The factory installation kit includes two twelve-inch collars
to allow ducting to be attached to the inlet and outlet of
the Vehere. The 12” collar with three tabs can be attached
via the holes provided in the front of the unit, and the 12”
flanged collar can be affixed to the top opening. S (See
Fig. 8)
