Placing TurboDryers
When drying in a building, place at least one TurboDryer per room.
Place as many as needed for maximum airflow across all wet ar-
eas of the floor.
Ensure that all wet surfaces receive good airflow. Open interior
doors to maintain good air circulation. Doors may need to be
braced to prevent them from blowing shut.
Choose an Operating Position
The Ace is specifically designed to operate in any one of multiple
positions. Each position utilizes a different angle to direct airflow
exactly where you need it for effective drying. The arrow on the
side of the unit indicates direction of airflow.

Tilt Forward – Set the Ace on its nar-
row feet (handle on top). Tilt the Ace
forward until the unit rests at an angle
on its lower legs. This position creates
laminar airflow along the floor in front
of the unit.
Tilt Back – Set the Ace on its narrow
feet (handle on top). Tilt the Ace back
until the unit rests at an angle on its
lower legs. This position directs air at
an angle for drying elevated materi-
als.
Face Down – Set the Ace on all four
legs with the switch-side grill facing
down. This position directs air down at
the floor for focused drying.
Face Up – Set the Ace on all four legs
with the switch-side grill facing up.
This position directs air straight up for
drying ceilings.
Stack for Operation – Set one Ace
TurboDryer on its wide feet (handle on
the side) on a stable, level surface.
Place a second Ace TurboDryer on
top so that its rubber feet fit into the
impressions on the bottom unit. Al-
ways use caution when stacking for
operation to avoid damage or injury
from a falling unit.
Control the Humidity
Using TurboDryers to speed the rate of evaporation in a building
usually causes the humidity to rise immediately. When this occurs,
the air movement becomes less effective and the rate of drying
slows. The increased humidity can also cause secondary damage
to the structure and its contents. Therefore, it is vital that Tur-
boDryers be used with adequate dehumidification. To prevent
secondary damage and help control mold growth, keep indoor hu-
midity below 60% RH. If possible, maintain indoor humidity below
45% RH. This may require the use of DrizAir dehumidifiers. Even
lower humidity (25-40% RH) will speed the drying of dense mate-
rials such as lumber, and is possible with Dri-Eaz desiccant or low
grain refrigerant dehumidifiers.
To improve drying, close off the area being dried from the rest of
structure. Regulate the heating or air conditioning system at 68–
80°F (20–27°C). When dehumidifiers are not available, run ex-
haust fans in the attic, kitchen and bathroom to remove some hu-
midity. If outdoor air is very dry, open some windows or doors at
least slightly. Use a thermo-hygrometer to determine the relative
humidity.
Check if Materials are Dry
Monitor the moisture condition of wet materials with a moisture
meter. To check how completely materials have dried, compare
your readings to those you take on similar materials that you know
to be completely dry.
Cooling & Ventilation
Over-heated rooms can be cooled with high-volume airflow from
an Ace TurboDryer. Place the unit on the floor or other flat surface
and direct the air from cooler areas or the outdoors.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Plug in to a standard outlet with the correct voltage and am-
perage for the unit.
2. Place the unit in the desired operating position. The arrow on
the side of the unit indicates direction of airflow.
3. Set the switch at the desired speed. Setting I is for low speed
and setting II is for high speed.
4. Check for proper operation before leaving the unit unattended.
Do not move or carry the TurboDryer when it is running.

interlock for easy stacking, storage
and transport. Place units grill-to-grill.
Rotate units until the legs are not
aligned.
