Unit Location
The DH95 can be installed in a variety of locations to meet the owner’s needs as listed below. In all cases keep the
following cautions in mind:
• The unit is designed to be installed indoors in a space that is protected from rain, flooding and/or other forms
of excess water. Unit is not designed to be exposed to chlorinated pool conditions or spaces where unit will be
exposed to corrosive chemicals or conditions.
• Install the unit with space to access the front panel for maintenance and service. Also allow easy access to
the filter cover panel. DO NOT INSTALL THE UNIT WITH THE FRONT PANEL OR FILTER COVER PANEL
INACCESSIBLE.
• Avoid discharging the air directly at people, over the water in pool areas, or other areas or objects where
dehydration or evaporation of moisture is not desired.
• If used near wet areas, be certain there is NO chance the unit could fall into the water or be splashed and that it is
wired into a GROUND FAULT INTERRUPTER protected circuit.
• A secondary drain pan MUST be placed under the unit if installed above a living area or above an area where
water leakage could cause damage (see local codes for other requirements).
• DO NOT position the DH95 directly on structural members where noise or vibration may be objectionable. The
DH95 is equipped with adjustable support feet to raise and level the unit from the mounting surface, these
adjustable feet should be utilized to provide improved drainage from the drain pan and should be adjusted to tilt
slightly toward the drain utilized.
• The DH95 should be located near the existing air handling system to minimize the required ductwork for
connecting of the DH95 to the existing air handling system. When the remote control option is used, the control
(humidistat) unit must be located in the space that is to be conditioned. The control (humidistat) may be low
voltage (24 volt) and should be connected to the DH95 with code approved, low voltage thermostat cable.
• When locating the DH95 in areas of extreme heat or high humidity, >120-degrees/90% humidity, additional
external insulation may be required to prevent undesired condensation on the exterior of the unit.
