FOR HVAC INSTALLER ONLY
1. Intended Application for Ultra-Aire XT150H
For the ideal installation, draw air from the central part of the home and return it to isolated areas of the home like the bedrooms, den, utility room, or family room. The ductwork of the existing heating system can be used to supply air to the home.

3. Installation
3.1 Location
The Ultra-Aire XT150H 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:
•It is designed to be installed INDOORS IN A SPACE THAT IS PROTECTED FROM RAIN AND FLOODING.
•Install the unit with space to access the back and side panels for maintenance and service and also to allow easy access to the filter cover panel. DO NOT INSTALL UNIT WITH THE FRONT PANEL OR FILTER COVER PANEL INACCESSIBLE.
•Avoid discharging the air directly at people, or over the water in pool areas.
•If used near a pool or spa, be certain there is NO chance the unit could fall into the water or be splashed and that it is plugged into a
GROUND FAULT INTERRUPTER.
•DO NOT use the Ultra-Aire XT150H as a bench or table.
•DO NOT place the Ultra-Aire XT150H directly on structural members. Provide vibration isolation in order to minimize operational vibration and/or noise.
•A drain pan MUST be placed under the unit if installed above a living area or above an area where water leakage could cause damage.
Place the Ultra-Aire XT150H on supports that raise the base of the unit above the top of the flanges on the drain pan beneath it. Raising the Ultra-Aire XT150H will help the unit drain with gravity flow. Do not place the Ultra-Aire XT150H directly on structural building members without vibration absorbers or unwanted noise may result.
The Ultra-Aire XT150H may be suspended with steel hanger straps (plumbers tape) or a suitable alternative from structural members, unit must be supported from underneath. Don't hang from sides or ends. Remember to place a drain pan under the unit if it is suspended above a finished area or above an area where water leakage could cause damage.
The Ultra-Aire XT150H should be located near the existing air handling system to minimize the required ductwork for connecting the Ultra-Aire XT150H to the existing air handling system. The controls for the Ultra-Aire XT150H are remote from the unit and must be located in the space that is to be conditioned. The controls are low voltage (24 volt) and should be connected to the Ultra-Aire XT150H with low voltage thermostat cable.
If fresh air ventilation is desired, thought should be given to the location for the fresh air ducting. A 6" round insulated duct will have to be installed on the Ultra-Aire XT150H and run to the outside of the structure to bring in fresh air. Use an 8" insulated round duct for lengths of more than 50 feet or if more than 100 CFM is needed. Consult local codes for necessary distances from exhaust ports when installing fresh air return.
3.2 Electrical Requirements
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW THE YELLOW LEAD FROM THE ULTRA-AIRE TO CONTACT THE RED LEAD OR WHITE LEAD FROM THE ULTRA-AIRE OR DAMAGE TO THE TRANSFORMER WILL RESULT.
The Ultra-Aire XT150H plugs into a common grounded outlet. It draws around 6.9 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.
Install the remote control panel in a central area of the structure where it will sense the relative humidity of the structure accurately. Do not install the control panel where it may not accurately sense the relative humidity such as near HVAC supply registers, near exterior doors, or near a pool or spa. The installer must supply the wiring between the Ultra-Aire XT150H and the control panel. Be sure to safely route the control wiring to prevent damage during installation. Be careful not to cross the wires when connecting the Ultra-Aire XT150H and the remote control panel or damage to the transformer may result.
