The WAD unit operates for your maximum benefit and air condition with internal humidity control, an external temperature sensor, and light or extract switch. This unit includes filters which helps keep out various pollutants, which should be changed yearly.
The warmed dehumidified air provides a simple and effective solution to keeping your home dry, the mild warming of the air provides for a refreshing method of keeping your home dryer by displacing wet air with dry air.

General Notes on Fan Installations
The fan position should be as far as practical from the main source of air replacement. This is to avoid short-circuiting of the airflow. The fan can be placed on a wall or ceiling. The Warm Air Dehumidifier Kitchen Fan has a 150mm spigot to fit into a circular telescopic wall sleeve. The ducting hole through the wall requires a minimum of a 5 degree downward slope to the outside.
The fan should be located at a high level close to the moisture source. If the room/ dwelling contains a fuel burning device such as a gas boiler with a non-balanced flue, it is essential that there is enough replacement air to prevent fumes being drawn down the flue where the fan is extracting.
And for the Specifier…
The WARM AIR KITCHEN DEHUMIDIFIER fan is supplied with an internal Autostat, heater and pull cord switch.
