Wood's WCD6HG
The Wood's WCD1HG is a very
powerful and sturdy dehumidifier,
suitable for both professional and
domestic use. The WCD1HG can be
used in many
different areas, such as building
sites, basements, laundry rooms and
other large areas.
Workings of your
dehumidifier
The Wood's WCD1HG is a compres-
sor dehumidifier. As the air is drawn
through the dehumidifier by the fan,
the air passes over the compressor
cooled copper coils. The coils cool
down the water vapour, separating
the water from the air.
The water drips down from the coils
and is drained away with the water
hose. Left is the dry air that is exhau-
sted in the room. As the dehumidifier
condensates the water vapour, heat
energy is released. That is why a
compressor dehumidifier will exhaust
warm, dry air that is extra beneficial
for drying clothes, laundry, wood etc.
A compressor dehumidifier is the
most energy efficient way to remove
excess moist and bad odour. Keep
the relative humidity level between
50% and 60% to maintain a safe and
healthy indoor environment.
1. Security warnings
Please read these security
warnings before using the unit:
1. Unplug the unit from its power
supply before cleaning, storage or
English
maintenance of its filter.
2. Always keep a safe distance from
water sources.
3. Do not let the machine near heat
equipment or inflammable or dang-
erous goods
4. Do not put fingers or other
objects into air inlet or air outlet.
5. Do not stand on the machine.
6. Always drain the water
according to the instructions.
7.If the power cable is damaged, it
must be replaced by qualified
personnel.
2. Installation and
placement
Wood's dehumidifiers are easy to
move around, but bare in mind the
following.
• The dehumidifier should not be
placed near radiators or other
heat sources or exposed to direct
sunlight, as it will reduce its perfor-
mance.
• Keep at least 25 cm distance from
walls and other obstructions to
maximize the air flow.
• For optimum performance, place
the dehumidifier in the middle of
the room.
• Make sure that the air flow from the
inlet and outlet isn't blocked
Installation:
1. Place the dehumidifier on a flat
and solid ground, preferably in the
middle of the room.
2. Connect the included water hose
to the connection on the side of the
unit. Please see the section about
water drainage.
3. Close all windows and ventilators
in the room. Otherwise, moist air
from the outside will continue to flow
into the room.
4. Connect the dehumidifier to a
grounded power outlet.

3. Using the WCD1HG
Hygrostat controlled
The unit will run only when the
ambient humidity exceeds your set
value.
Automatic restart
In the event of a power failure, the
unit will continue to work according to
your latest settings once the power
returns.
Automatic defrost
The unit has a hot gas defrost sys-
tem and can be used in colder areas,

tically when needed and resume to
work when the defrost is completed.
When defrosting, the compressor and
fan shuts off and the defrost symbol
is shown on the control panel.
Low temperature function
If the temperature drops below 0°C,
the unit automatically shuts off to
prevent ice forming on the cooling
coils. The unit will restart when the
temperature rises.
