4. Unit Assembly
4.1 Installing Feet
Included with your Santa Fe Compact are four leveling feet. It
is important to level the unit for proper draining. Do not install
the feet if you are using the optional hang kit.
Adjusting Leveling Feet
1. Lay down a protective pad (pillow, blanket, etc.).
2. Carefully turn unit onto side.
3. Install leveling feet and adjust to the desired position.
4. Carefully bring unit to upright position.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 until unit is capable of proper drainage
as described in section 5.2.3 of this manual.
6. Wait a minimum of 10 minutes before operating.
CAUTION!
Note: Operating the unit immediately after bringing it to an
upright position can possibly damage the compressor. A
minimum of 10 minutes is needed to allow the compressor
oil to return to it’s reservoir for lubrication.
4.2 Drain Hose
Install the threaded drain hose tting into the lower right hand
side, on the front of the machine. Place drain hose end on drain
port until fully seated. Refer to Section 5.2.3 regarding proper
drainage.
5. Installation
5.1 Safety Precautions
• Do not install the Santa Fe Compact with the intake or exhaust
of the unit within 1' of a wall or other obstruction.
• Do not place the unit where curtains or debris can be drawn
onto the intake and restrict airow.
• Do not operate in standing water or place the unit near open
water.
5.2 Location
The Santa Fe Compact can be installed in a variety of locations
to meet the dehumidication needs, but should be installed
directly in the area to be dehumidied. Other considerations
include:
1. Providing access to a 115 VAC power outlet (9' power cord is
provided).
2. Locating near a suitable drain (8' drain hose included).
3. The unit is designed to operate while level. If the unit is
placed on an unlevel surface, refer to section 4.1. Failure to
level the unit may result in leakage or improper drainage.
4. The unit should be hung from the oor joists if there is
any possibility of ooding. A ooded unit is not covered
by warranty.
WARNING!
5.3 Electrical Requirements
The Santa Fe Compact plugs into a common grounded outlet
on a 110-120 VAC 15-Amp circuit. While operating, it draws
5.1 amps @ 80°F, 60% RH and 4.5 amps @ 70°F, 50% RH.
Use of a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected circuit
is recommended. The unit should not be used in areas prone to
ooding.
5.4 Condensate (Water) Removal
The Santa Fe Compact drains via a gravity system - it is not able
to push condensate (water) uphill. The drain hose must run at
or downhill toward the drain location. Be sure the hose is not
kinked or otherwise restricted so that water can pass through it.
Improper hose installation may result in water leakage.
To increase the efciency of the unit, position the hose to create
a “trap”. By creating a trap, it will hold a small amount of water.
Position the trap on the hose approximately 12" - 20" away
