CONTROLS

A control must be used with the Ultra Aire Dehumidifier. Ultra Aire offers the DEH 3000 proprietary control. The 

DEH 3000 allows homeowners to monitor and control relative humidity and proper ventilation levels in their home. 

This control is also available with a remote sensing option.
Note: The DEH 3000 is sold seperately and can be purchased online or through your local dealer. Other  

thermostats are compatible with the Ultra Aire Dehumidifier.

 CAUTION!

 DO NOT ALLOW THE 24V TERMINAL FROM THE ULTRA AIRE DEHUMIDIFIER TO CONTACT THE COM  

TERMINAL ON THE ULTRA AIRE DEHUMIDIFIER OR DAMAGE TO THE TRANSFORMER WILL RESULT. 

Wiring Controls

Circuit Breaker

To prevent damage to the 24 volt control transformer, the Ultra Aire Dehumidifier comes  

with a resettable circuit breaker. Check wiring for any electrical short and repair before  

resetting breaker. Resetting the circuit breaker without correcting the electrical short may  

result in transformer damage. Be sure to check the electrical schematic in this manual  

or inside the access panel of the Ultra Aire Dehumidifier before making any control  

connections. The reset button for the circuit breaker can be found on the back  

of the unit.

Control Connections

The control and the Ultra Aire Dehumidifier are labeled to prevent confusion. Depending  

on the control, some of the screw terminals on the Ultra Aire Dehumidifier may not be  

used. Be sure to consult the electrical schematic in this manual or inside the access panel  

of the Ultra Aire Dehumidifier before making control connections.

Power HVAC Accessory  

Connect the accessory to the COM and 24V terminals 

Between the COM lead and the 24V TERMINAL is a 40VA transformer. This low voltage power source 

powers the relay coils which control the fan and compressors. This 24VAC transformer can also be 

used to power HVAC accessories external to the dehumidifier.

NOTE: 18 gauge wire needed between the Ultra Aire Dehumidifier and the external control.
