DUCTING TO HVAC SYSTEMS (Closet Installations)
9
CAUTION!
PLEASE NOTE: RETURN TO RETURN INSTALLS ARE TO BE CONSIDERED LAST RESORT OPTIONS AND ARE
NOT RECOMMENDED. THE DEHUMIDIFIER WILL HEAT THE AC COOLING COILS WHICH DIMINISHES THE
AMOUNT OF WATER THE AC SYSTEM WILL REMOVE WHEN OPERATING. PLEASE CHECK YOUR LOCAL
CODES PRIOR TO INSTALLING.
2. Alternative Closet Installation
If the Recommended Closet Installation is not possible, there are several alternative installation options available.
•
No inlet duct is required. Air is pulled through the passive vent or louver door from the living space.
•
Install an insulated duct from outside to the 6" collar of the Ultra Series Dehumidifier to provide outdoor air
ventilation (optional).
•
Control should be located remotely from the dehumidifier and placed in a central location.
a. Central Return to HVAC Return
Duct the supply of the Ultra Series
Dehumidifier to the return side of the
existing HVAC system.
In a central return system, the HVAC
fan must run when the dehumidifier is
running.
b. No Duct - Central Return to HVAC Return
Attach outlet duct with a vertical flow
through so air is not discharged into
wall or other obstruction. The HVAC
system will naturally pull dehumidified
air from the closet and distribute it
throughout the structure.
