DRAIN INSTALLATION

The Santa Fe Ultra120V generates condensate. Place a secondary drain pan with a float switch under the dehumidifier if it is suspended above a finished area or above an area where water leakage could cause damage. The Santa Fe Ultra120V contains an internal drain trap for proper dehumidifier operation. Install a 3/4 threaded male NPT adapter to the external condensate fitting. Install a drain pipe assembly utilizing 3/4 PVC pipe to transport the condensate to a drain. Pitch of drain should be 1 per 10. An optional condensate pump kit is available for use with the Santa Fe Ultra120V and may be installed if lift is required to dispose of condensate. Condensate is automatically pumped to a remote location when the water level in the pump’s reservoir rises to close the float switch.The pump also contains a safety float switch. If the pump fails, this switch opens the common control circuit and stops water production before the reservoir overflows.

Note
An optional condensate pump kit can be purchased through your dealer or online. Refer to the kit literature for installation instructions.

Drain Installation Side View

DUCTING TO HVAC SYSTEMS

The recommended installation creates a separate return for the Santa Fe Ultra120V in a central area of the structure. Duct the supply of the unit to the air supply of the existing HVAC system. Connect an insulated duct from outside to the 6″ damper of the Santa Fe Ultra120V to provide fresh make up air.

CAUTION
DO NOT CONNECT WITH A STATIC PRESSURE GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO +0.8 WG. CONTACT TECHNICAL SUPPORT AT 800-533-7533 FOR ADDITIONAL DETAILS.

Ducting Considerations
  • All flexible ducting connected to the Santa Fe Ultra120V should be UL listed.
  • A short piece of flexible ducting on all Santa Fe Ultra120V duct connections is recommended to reduce noise and vibration transmitted to rigid ductwork in the structure.
  • Use a minimum 8″ diameter round or equivalent rectangular duct for total duct lengths of up to 25.
  • Use a minimum 10″ diameter round or equivalent rectangular duct for longer lengths.
  • Grills or diffusers on the duct ends must not excessively restrict airflow.
  • Effective dehumidification may require that ducting be branched to isolated, stagnant air flow areas.
  • When ducting to two or three areas, use 8″ or larger diameter branch ducting.
  • When ducting to four or more areas, use 6″ or larger diameter branch ducting.
  • Provisions must be made to provide airflow from supply locations to the central return location.
  • Proper air distribution is important to ensure even humidity control and heat distribution throughout the structure.
  • DO NOT locate the return in a bathroom or a kitchen.
  • Please visit our website at www.Santa-Fe-Products.com/install options for more installation options.

Recommended HVAC System Installation

Dedicated Santa Fe Return to HVAC Supply

santa-fe TS-1158 Fe Classic Basement Dehumidifier 6

Install a dedicated return for the Santa Fe Ultra120V from a central area of the structure. Install an insulated duct from outside to the 6 damper of the Santa Fe Ultra120V to provide fresh air ventilation optional.The optional second supply of the Santa Fe Ultra120V may be ducted to another location. This can provide a second source of airflow to the basement or supply of the existing HVAC system with a backdraft damper. When using only one of the two supplies on the Santa Fe Ultra120V, the unused supply must be blocked using the duct cover plate included. DO NOT locate return in a bathroom or kitchen.Control should be located remotely from the dehumidifier and placed in a central location.

FRESH AIR VENTILATION

Fresh air ventilation is optional

Fresh air may be brought into the structure by connecting an insulated duct from outside the structure to the 6″ inlet of the Santa Fe Ultra120V. A ventilation control is needed to program the time and frequency that the unit introduces outside air. The time and frequency of ventilation should be based on the size and occupancy o the residence.• The fresh air ventilation duct should be connected to the 6″ damper on the top of the Santa Fe Ultra120V. An insulated 6 diameter duct can provide up to 100 CFM of outside air.
If the fresh air ventilation duct is to be used, the return of the Santa Fe Ultra120V must be ducted or an inline fan may be required on the fresh air ventilation line to bring in outside air. If a motorized damper is not being used, fresh air is controlled by the manual damper in the 6” collar of the Santa Fe Ultra120V. Performance of the Santa Fe Ultra120V can be impacted by inside and outside air conditions. When a 6 motorized damper is used, a digital control is required. It may be necessary to use 8″ duct work if additional fresh air is required. In cold climates or at times when the dew point is low, ventilation can be used to dehumidify the structure, making the Santa Fe Ultra120V capable of year-round drying.

Fresh Air Ventilation With Dehumidifier Off and Fan Only Operation

Outside air mixes with the dehumidifier’s return air before being supplied to the home. Outside temperature, inside temperature and relative humidity will impact the combined outlet air conditions.

Note
Temperature and relative humidity may vary depending on duct distribution scheme.

AIR FILTRATION

The Santa Fe Ultra120V is equipped with a MERV-13 Dimensions: 1.75 x 15.50 x 19.50 filter. An optional MERV-14 filter is available at www.ThermastorFilters.com. The MERV 13 filter should be checked and replaced every three to six months. If the MERV-14 filter is used, the MERV-13 should act as a pre-filter and sit on top of the MERV-14 filter. Replacing the MERV-13 filter every three to six months extends the life of the MERV-14 filter. The MERV-14 filter should be replaced every two to three years if a MERV-13 is used as a pre-filter and replaced every three to six months. Operating the unit with a dirty filter will reduce dehumidifier capacity and efficiency. DO NOT operate the unit without the recommended filter. Filter non-compliance voids the product warranty.

CAUTION
MAKE SURE UNIT IS OFF BEFORE CHANGING THE FILTER.

Changing the Filter

For greatest filtration and efficiency of the Santa Fe Ultra120V, it is recom- mended the air filter be replaced every three to six months with a MERV-13
filter.

Step 1
The filter access door is located above the front panel of the dehumidifier. Pull straight up on the door latch to disengage from the front panel, then lift door to it’s vertical position.

Step 2
Remove the used filter from the housing. Insert the new filter by gently pushing it straight into the filter cavity. Make sure the air flow arrows on the filter are pointing down into the unit.

Step 3
Close the filter access door by push-ing up on the door latch, inserting the latch into the front panel, then releasing. Ensure that the latch is firmly engaged
with the front panel.

Troubleshooting Procedure for Performance Related Issues

This method of diagnosis is used to function check the internal components in the dehumidi- fier. This is to be used when a performance issue is suspected.

1.  Set the humidity controller all the way to the most humid setting or off position Did the unit shut off?

If yes, turn the fan setting to the ON position – does the fan start?If fan starts, leave in the fan ON position and set the humidity all the way to driest setting. May have to wait 5 minutes for the compressor to start.

4.  Listen for a distinct buzzing/humming sound of a compressor starting up – do you hear this noise?

5.   If compressor is running and continues to run, after about 15 minutes you should feel a slight increase in air temperature being discharged out of the discharge air side of the unit.

If so, depending on your environmental conditions emp/Rh% you should see some water production out of the hose within 30 minutes or so.

Note: If the room temperature is 55 degrees or below and/or in area of low relative humidity, the dehumidifier will produce little to no water.

Collecting the water removed in a 24 hour period will give a measurement of performance.
