2. Installation
2.1 Location
The Santa Fe Rx can be installed in a variety of locations to meet the owner’s needs as listed below. In all cases, keep the following cautions in mind:
1.It is designed to be installed INDOORS ONLY.
2.If used near a pool or spa, be certain there is NO chance the unit could roll into the water or be splashed and that it is plugged into a GROUND FAULT INTERRUPTER.
3.DO NOT use the Santa Fe as a bench or table.
4.Avoid discharging the air directly at people, especially in pool areas.
Consider the following points when choosing a location for your Santa Fe Rx:
1.The Santa Fe Rx is most effective if it is centrally located in the space to be dehumidified.
2.It is designed to be placed with its back 3” or more from a wall (the air outlet is located at the lower portion of the back). This will reduce noise and the likelihood that discharge air will blow directly at someone.
3.The water removed by the APD will be pumped through the white 20’ long hose coming from under its base. The hose (about the diameter of a TV coaxial cable) must be routed to a drain or outside. It can pump 15’ above the unit and can be extended (see section 2.3).
4.The top can serve as a light duty table (maximum load: 20 lbs.), but it must be removed periodically to check the air filter.
2.2 Electrical Requirements
The Santa Fe Rx plugs into a common grounded outlet on a
15 Amp circuit. It draws between 6 and 7 Amps under normal operating conditions. If used in a wet area (pool, spa room, or basement prone to flooding), a ground fault interrupter protected circuit is required.
2.3 Condensate Removal
The Santa Fe Rx is equipped with a condensate pump to remove the water that is condensed during dehumidification. This allows the water to be discharged to a distant location, or to be pumped up to 15’ above the Santa Fe Rx.
