FreshAirReturn

If your system includes the optional fresh air return, it will have an outside air intake. Check and clean the hood screen on the outside air intake seasonally. The intake hood screen must remain clear of any debris that could restrict airflow into the dehumidifier.

UVCGermicidalLight

WGDH160UH and WGDV160UH models are equipped with UVC germicidal ultraviolet lights. The bulb for the germicidal ultraviolet light is rated for at least 9,000 hours (1 year) when used in accordance with the whole house dehumidifier installation instructions. The bulb may last longer in some situations, but annual bulb replacement is recommended since UVC ouput is typically reduced by about 25 percent at 9,000 hours and drops off more rapidly afterward.

CAUTION: UV Light Hazard RG-3. Harmful to bare skin and eyes. Can cause temporary or permanent loss of vision. Never look at the lamps while illuminated. This heating/air conditioning system is equipped with an ultraviolet air treatment system. To prevent exposure to ultraviolet light, disconnect power to the ultraviolet air treatment system before servicing any part of the heating/air conditioning system.
