Installation & Operation Instructions 800.558.1711
Important Precautions
The device is designed to be installed indoors in a space that is protected from rain and ooding.
Install the unit with enough space to access all sides for maintenance and service. The entire shell needs to be
removed in order to do repairs.
• Avoid directing the discharge air at people. The dehumidier should be used in the upright position.
If used near a water source; be certain there is no chance the unit could fall into the water or get splashed and
that it is plugged into a dedicated circuit and Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected outlet.
• DO NOT use the dehumidier as a bench or table.
DO NOT place the dehumidier directly on structural building members without vibration absorbers or unwanted
noise may result. Place the B70DHV on supports to raise the base of the unit.
A drain pan with a oat switch MUST be placed under the dehumidier if installed above a living area or above
an area where water leakage could cause damage.
Location Considerations
Allow sucient clearance to handle the unit’s overall dimensions as well as the necessary return and supply
ductwork to the unit.
• Allow sucient clearance for lter removal and to prevent airow obstruction.
Electrical service access will require the removal of the outside shell. Allow sucient clearance around the unit.
Locate the dehumidier in an area where the cord’s lenght (9') easily reaches a 115 VAC electrical outlet with a
minimum of a 15 Amp circuit capacity.
• Locate the dehumidier in an area where eld wiring the control (low voltage) to the unit will be possible.
It is recommended that a
backdraft damper be used in
the discharge duct of the
B70DHV, especially when
connecting to the supply
ducting system. The backdraft
damper prevents supply air
from counter owing through
the B70DHV when it is not
operating. The dehumidier’s
location should be chosen to
allow installation of this
accessory if necessary.
The B70DHV may be
suspended with the hang kit
or a suitable alternative from
structural members,
ensuring the assembly
supports the dehumidier’s
base in its entirety. DO NOT
hang the B70DHV from its’
cabinet.
Allow for proper drainage and
routing of needed drain pipes.
