Installation of a Santa Fe Advance2
With a Supply and Return Duct Kit
Recommended Installations
• Place the Santa Fe Advance2 in the unfinished area
of the basement, near a drain access (condensate will
drain via gravity or with an optional pump kit).
• Using the supply duct collar, supply the dry air from
the dehumidifier into a large, open area in the
finished section of the basement.
• Place a return grill / passive vent on the other side of
the wall that separates the finished and unfinished
areas. This will allow for a circular air flow throughout
the basement.
• The passive grill will prevent the unfinished room from
being placed under a negative pressure and also
allow the dehumidifier to focus on keeping the
unfinished area dry as well.
• The onboard dehumidistat control can be used on the
unit for this application or a 120 volt dehumidistat
can be placed in the finished basement as well (we
recommend using an electrician to run the wiring).
• Be sure to keep all doors open to any other rooms in
the basement to help with proper air circulation
(bedrooms, bathrooms, etc.)
• Place the Santa Fe Advance2 in the unfinished area
of the basement, near a drain access (condensate will
drain via gravity or with an optional pump kit).
• Using the supply and return duct kit, supply the dry air
from the dehumidifier into a large, open area of the
finished basement. Use the return duct kit to draw air
back through the dehumidifier.
• Be sure the return and supply are at least 10 feet away
from each other for proper air flow throughout the
basement. Add a passive grill between the finished
and unfinished areas (*or have a 2” gap under the
door separating the two rooms). This will help keep the
unfinished area dry as well.
• Use the 120 volt, wall mounted dehumidistat for this
installation for proper run time on the dehumidifier (we
recommend using an electrician to install the separate
120 volt control).
• Be sure to keep all doors open to any other rooms in
the basement to help with proper air circulation
(bedrooms, bathrooms, etc.)
