*To check air temperature, use a digital thermostat which can be purchased

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

at any hardware store under kitchen supplies.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

21)

On a thermostat with digital readout, does the thermostat display two

horizontal dashes or the letters “PRB”? (This indicates a problem with the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

thermostat.)

 

 

 

 

 

22)

Is the probe inserted into a bottle of water? Refer to page 14 of the owner’s

Yes

No

 

 

manual.

 

 

 

 

 

Water is Leaking from the Unit:

All units come with a drain line for additional removal of excess condensate, as a back up system to the Condensate Evaporator which is used to maintain proper humidity. It is critical to install the drain line attachment for the unit to function e￿ectively, preventing over￿ows and leaks from build up of condensate. See page 13.

Failure to install drain line will void warranty.

23)

Is the unit level?

Yes

No

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

24)

Is the drain line attached?

Yes

No

 

25)

Is the unit leaking from the back?

Yes

No

 

 

 

 

 

This is generally due to an improper setting on the condensate evaporator.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In high humidity regions, the condensate evaporator should be set to “ON”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

while other regions should be set to “AUTO”.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Refer to page 13 of the owner’s manual.

26)

Is the unit icing up? Allow the unit to thaw for 24-36 hours and ensure that

Yes

No

 

 

 

 

 

there is adequate air ￿ow to and from the unit before operating again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Obstructed air￿ow is a possible reason why units ice up. Refer to page 21

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

of the owner’s manual.

Yes

No

 

 

 

 

 

on a GFI. Refer to page 10 of the owner’s manual.

 

 

 

29)

Does the unit have a dedicated electrical line and 20 ampcircuit breaker?

Yes

No

 

 

 

 

 

To check, examine the breaker box to see if the cellar is on its own circuit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Refer to page 21 of the owner’s manual.

 

 

 

30)

Are there any large appliances plugged into the same room or in the same
