ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
To ensure continued full efficiency of the dehumidifier, maintenance
procedures should be performed as follows:
1. Clean the surface of the evaporator and condenser coils by blowing the
dirt out from behind the fins with compressed air. Hold the nozzle of the air
hose away from the coil (approx 6”) to avoid damaging the fins.
Alternatively, vacuum clean the coils.
2.
Check that the fan is firmly secured to the motor shaft and that the
fan rotates freely.
THE FAN IS SEALED FOR LIFE AND DOES NOT NEED LUBRICATING.
3.
To check the refrigerant charge, run the unit for 20 minutes (with
humidistat set to maximum) and briefly remove the cover. The
evaporator coil should be evenly frost coated across its surface. At
temperatures above 77
°
f, the coil may be covered with droplets of
water rather than frost. Partial frosting accompanied by frosting of
the thin capillary tubes, indicates loss of refrigerant gas or low
charge.
4.
Check all wiring connections.
