CHOOSING A LOCATION
A dehumidifier operating in a basement will have little or no effect in drying out an adjacent enclosed storage
area, such as a closet, unless there is adequate circulation of air in and out of the area.
Do not use outdoors. This dehumidifier is intended for indoor use only. Place the dehumidifier on a
•
smooth, level floor surface that is strong enough to support the unit with a full bucket of water.
Allow at least 12"- 18" of air flow on all sides of the unit.
•
Place the dehumidifier in an area where the temperature will not fall below 41˚F (5˚C). The coils can
•
become covered with frost at temperatures below 41˚F (5˚C), which may reduce the performance.
Use the dehumidifier in cooking, laundry, bathing, and dishwashing areas that have excessive moisture.
•
NOTE: Place the dehumidifier away from a clothes dryer.
•
Use the dehumidifier to prevent moisture damage anywhere books or valuables are stored.
•
Use the dehumidifier in a basement to help prevent moisture.
•
The dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area to be most effective.
Close all doors, windows, and other outside openings to the room.
