Santa Fe Free-Standing High Capacity Dehumidifier by Therma-Stor

The Santa Fe is a high capacity, energy efficient dehumidifier. The Santa Fe is Energy Star listed and removes more water per unit of electricity than any other qualified dehumidifier. It can operate as a 'stand alone' dehumidifier; simply plug it in, route the condensate hose to a drain, and set the dehumidistat. It is ideal for basement and crawlspace applications since it operates effectively in temperatures as low as 53?F. Normally, a Santa Fe unit will maintain relative humidity levels below 50% in areas up to 3,000 square feet. An optional duct kit allows the Santa Fe to be located in a mechanical room and deliver the dried air to another area via air ducts. Other available options include a noise reduction kit, a remote dehumidistat and a condensate pump kit. The Santa Fe is a high efficiency residential dehumidifier that utilizes refrigeration to cool the incoming air stream below its dew point as it passes through the dehumidification (evaporator) coil. This cooling results in the removal of moisture (latent heat) and reduction of the temperature (sensible heat). The cooled and dried air is used to pre-cool the incoming air stream resulting in up to a 200 percent increase in overall efficiency. After the pre-cooling stage the processed air is reheated by passing through the condenser coil. The latent heat removed by the evaporator coil is returned to the air stream at this stage as sensible heat, resulting in an overall increase in temperature from the incoming air. The Santa Fe is controlled by a dehumidistat with positive?ON? and?OFF? settings and a variable setting range from?20%? to?80%?. The Santa Fe has a built-in defrost system that is designed for operation down to 55?F. The unit contains a blower switch that permits continuous blower operation independent of dehumidification. The Santa Fe is portable and provided with four casters. The unit contains a six foot vinyl, gravity drain hose. The wiring of the unit is through a factory installed six foot power cord; 115 volt with ground.
