Control Crawlspace Moisture
The Santa Fe Advance will help preserve the structural integrity of your residence, hinder mold growth, and improve the interior air quality of your home by eliminating odor-causing moisture and maintaining 50 percent or less relative humidity as suggested by the EPA, American Lung Association, and American Medical Association.
As much as 50% of the air you breathe on the first floor of your house comes from your crawlspace. Humidity levels above 70% in your crawlspace fuels the growth of mold, mildew, bacteria and other biological allergens, which generate musty odors. Air penetration from the crawlspace enters the living area, carries odors, and adds to poor indoor air quality and uncomfortable humidity levels. The Santa Fe Advance offers time tested technology to preserve recommended humidity levels in your crawlspace and to protect your home and family from the harmful effects of high humidity.
Large Capacity: This high capacity dehumidifier removes up to 90 pints of water per day at standard conditions, enough water removal capacity for areas up to 2200 square feet.
Low Temp Operation: The Santa Fe Advance is powerful enough to control humidity even in the cooler environments of crawlspaces. Dehumidifiers are rated for capacity at 80°F and 60% relative humidity. At the cooler, real-life temperatures of a crawlspace, the capacity of usual dehumidifiers drops noticeably. At temperatures below 65°F, frost forms on the coils of conventional dehumidifiers and causes the unit to ice up. Frost cuts down on air flow so the unit does not remove as much moisture from the air. Some units have automatic defrost but remove significantly lower quantities of water in cool conditions. At regular conditions, the Santa Fe Advance removes more pints of water per day than most dehumidifiers.
MERV-11 Filtration: The Santa Fe Series utilizes a blower rather than a propeller fan allowing the use of high-efficiency air filtration for improved indoor air quality. Standard MERV-11 filtration is 65% efficient at capturing particles from 1.0 to 3.0 microns in size, resulting in effective filtration of most mold spores.
Optional Ductability: Attaching ductwork to the unit promotes air circulation throughout the crawlspace allowing for the location of the dehumidifier by the crawlspace access door for convenience. The dehumidifier may also be located remotely when space does not allow for placement in the crawlspace.
Low-Profile Design: Ideal for low clearance applications such as crawlspaces and attics.
