Key Features and Benefits of the Santa Fe Ultra V205 Ventilating Dehumidifier

• High-Performance Dehumidification: Removes up to 205 pints of moisture per day at AHAM conditions (80 degrees F and 60 percent RH), maintaining consistent humidity levels in demanding, high-humidity environments.
• Energy-Efficient Operation: Uses patented ECCO technology and a highly efficient fan capable of removing 7.5 pints/kWh at 80 degrees F and 60 percent relative humidity, providing superior moisture removal at lower operating costs.
• Environmentally-Friendly Refrigerant: Designed with R-454B refrigerant, it has a lower environmental impact and global warming potential than older refrigerant formulas.
• Whole House Ventilation: Integrates easily into your HVAC system and meets ASHRAE 62.2 requirements when installed using the outdoor air intake for improved ventilation, bringing in fresh outdoor air.
• Superior Air Filtration: Includes a MERV-13 filter for enhanced indoor air quality by effectively removing allergens, dust, spores, and contaminants.
• Intuitive Control: Equipped with an onboard digital control panel and compatible with the SmartAire Remote Sensor and the DEH3000 Digital Controller or other external 24V controllers for custom humidity management.
• Simple Drainage: Drain condensate using the provided gravity drain setup or upgrade with a Santa Fe Condensate Pump to move condensate vertically for up to 15 feet. It’s recommended to use a drain trap with a float switch to prevent backflow and leaks.
• Reliable Construction: Built with corrosion-resistant dual-coated coils and durable materials, ensuring lasting operation even in harsh conditions.

Installation and Ducting Considerations

The Santa Fe Ultra V205 Ventilating Dehumidifier’s performance effectiveness depends significantly on proper installation and thoughtful ducting. Install this unit either on the floor or suspended from the ceiling, providing versatility in managing airflow and accessibility.

Featuring standard 10-inch round inlet and outlet duct collars and an 8-inch round outdoor air intake duct collar connections for both supply and return air, the system accommodates 10-inch flex ducts and an optional 8-inch flex duct for outdoor air intake.

Ensure adequate clearance around the Santa Fe dehumidifier to facilitate easy maintenance and optimal air distribution. When integrating with existing HVAC systems, include a backdraft damper to prevent reverse airflow, and adhere strictly to local and national HVAC installation standards.
