Accessories

Duct Kit

Contains both the supply duct adaptor (mounts on the discharge on the back) and the return duct adaptor (mounts on the intake at front)
Both the supply and return sizes are 10” diameter and accept standard flex duct
Used in whole home installations or in crawlspaces that require some duct to distribute the dehumidified air throughout the crawlspace
It can also be used in a basement application where the dehumidifier is installed in an unfinished space and you want to discharge the dehumidified
air into a finished space

Hanging Kit

The addition of the integral secondary drain pan makes it easier to hang the unit. The brackets in the kit attach directly to the underside of the secondary drain pan, and provide solid attachment points for cables

Safety Float Switch

Built-in secondary drain pan has a ¾” threaded opening to take a compact flow switch that has a ¾” male threaded fitting
The opening is located just a few inches from where it wires to the control panel
This is not a proprietary part, and there are multiple float switches available
- Rectorseal SS2 Safe-T-Switch (right)
- EZ Trap EZT-224
Putting in float switch protection is easy
- Integrated secondary drain pan + thread-in float switch + control panel within easy reach for the wiring

Replacement Filter

With the new higher MERV filters, the systems run more reliably, but the higher MERV means they load faster. It’s a good idea to leave an extra filter with the homeowner, in case they need to change it out sooner than the dealer’s annual maintenance.
