3 Operation

Place dehumidifier inside structure, place 

condensate hose into a drain, or a very 

large container, and turn on. To decrease 

drying times, make sure all windows and 

doors are closed to the outside and seal 

off the wet area from any unaffected 

areas.

3.1 Transporting

The Phoenix R175 features a high-impact 

roto-molded housing which protects the unit airways, and 

while loading into vehicles. The unit was designed to make 

it easy to stack two high. The wheels of the top unit ‘nest’ in 

the indentations of the bottom unit to provide stability. It is 

recommended the units are properly secured for transport. 

The Phoenix R175 must always be upright when transported 

by vehicle. It may be tipped onto its handle and back for 

loading and moving by hand.

Read the operation and maintenance instructions 

carefully before using this unit. Proper adherence to these 

instructions is essential to obtain maximum benefit from 

your Phoenix R175 dehumidifier.

• It is designed to be used 

INDOORS ONLY.

• If used in a wet area, plug it into a 

GROUND FAULT 

INTERRUPTER

.

• 

DO NOT

 use the Phoenix R175 as a bench or table.

• It must always be used in the upright position.
