Ultra Aire XT105H / XT155H / XT205H Installation Instructions

Ultra-Aire.com | (800) 533-7533

The Ultra Aire Dehumidifier plugs into a common grounded 115 VAC outlet. Locate the dehumidifier in an 

area where the cord’s length (9') easily reaches a 115 VAC electrical outlet with a minimum of 15 Amp circuit 

capacity. The Ultra Aire XT205H requires a dedicated 20 Amp circuit. If used in an area that may become wet, 

a GFCI protected circuit is recommended. Consult local electrical codes for further information. 
Ultra Aire offers a variety of control devices for use with the Ultra Aire Dehumidifier. The control is to be  

located remotely from the dehumidifier and placed in the space to be conditioned. A low voltage (24 Volt) 

control MUST be used with the Ultra Aire Dehumidifier and MUST be connected with low voltage (18-22 

gauge) thermostat wire.  

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

 

CAUTION!

DO NOT ALLOW THE WIRE FROM THE 24V TERMINAL TO MAKE CONTACT WITH THE WIRE FROM 

THE COM TERMINAL OR DAMAGE TO THE TRANSFORMER WILL RESULT. 

Electrical Precautions

•  Do not install the control where it may not accurately sense the 

relative humidity such as near HVAC supply registers, near  

exterior doors, on an outside wall, near a window, or near a 

water source. 

•  The screw terminals on the Ultra Aire Dehumidifier and the 

control are labeled to prevent confusion. 

•  Be sure to consult the electrical schematic in the CONTROLS 

Section (page 12) of this manual or inside the access panel  

of the Ultra Aire Dehumidifier before making control  

connections.

 

WARNING!

THE REMOTE CONTROLS OF THE ULTRA AIRE DEHUMIDIFIER ARE POWERED BY A LOW VOLTAGE 

CIRCUIT (24 VAC) AND MUST NEVER CONTACT OR BE CONNECTED TO A HIGH VOLTAGE CIRCUIT.

 

CAUTION!

SOME OF THE TERMINAL CONTROLS ON THE ULTRA AIRE DEHUMIDIFIER MAY BE USED WITH 

CERTAIN CONTROLS.
