For additional questions concerning your dehumidifier:

Electrical Supply
Power Supply: 110-120V, 60 Hz AC, Single Phase
Outlet Requirement: 3-Prong
Circuit Protector: 15 Amp
Warning: Using a 240V out let may cause serious injury from electric shock.
To reduce risk of injury:

  3.  Do not use an extension cord.
  4. Do not use a plug adapter.

How the Hurricane 160P Works

The Hurricane 160P dehumidifier utilizes its integral humidistat t o monitor the conditioned space. Once conditions are outside the desired setpoint, the compressor energizes and air is drawn across an evaporator coil. The evaporator coil is cooler than the dew point of the air so the water vapor will turn into liquid condensation. The air is then reheated through the condenser coil and distributed back into the room.

Guidelines

Operation Notes

  • Always make sure that the unit is operated, transported, and stored on a stable surface.
  • For maximum efficiency, operate the unit with all windows and doors closed.
  •  Do not place the unit anywhere that may block the inletor outlet airflow.

Drain Hose Notes

  • The Hurricane 160P is equipped with an external drain line connection, making it easy to plug in.
  • The drain line can be directed outside or into any sink, drain, etc.
  • For more effective draining, uncoil the entire hose before using.
  • Never place the end of the hose higher than 15 feet.
  • Always ensure that the drain hose is not blocked prior to use.

Transportation Notes

  • Always secure the dehumidifier during transportation.
  • If the unit is transported vertically, return it to a normal horizontal position, and let it sit for 30 minutes before using.
