Safety Notes
DEHUMIDIFIERS
• The Storm Elite dehumidifier must always be connected using a grounded electrical
connection as required for all electrical appliances. The warranty is voided and all respon-
sibility for the operation transfers to the owner if non-grounded wiring is utilized.
• Your Storm Series dehumidifier must be maintained and serviced by qualified technicians.
• Storm dehumidifiers are intended for use only when the unit is installed in a level and
upright position. Operating the unit in any other position could cause water to come in
contact with the electrical components.
• Before moving the dehumidifier, turn off the unit and allow the pump reservoir to empty (if
unit is already off, press “P” button to confirm drain reservoir is empty). After the pump has
finished operation, unplug the power cord and relocate the unit to the desired position.
• If the inside of the machine has gotten wet for any reason, the unit should be opened and
allowed to dry thoroughly before reconnecting it to electric and restarting.
• For proper operation, neither the inlet or discharge should be positioned against a wall. A
minimum of 8” clearance between the Storm and any obstruction is required.
• Do not insert any objects or fingers into the inlet or discharge.
• All work on the machine should be done with the unit off and unplugged.
• Do not spray water or cleaner directly on the exterior of the Elite. Only use a damp cloth
to clean the exterior and always unplug the unit first.
• Do not use unit as shelf or device to hang clothes as this could cause damage to unit.
• Do not stand on the machine.

The Storm Elite dehumidifier utilizes its integral humidistat to monitor the conditioned space.
Once conditions are outside the desired setpoint, the compressor energizes and air is
drawn across an evaporator coil. The evaporator coil is cooler than the dew point of the air
so water vapor will turns into liquid condensation. The air is then reheated through the
condenser coil and distributed back into the room.
1. Disconnect electrical power before servicing
2. Only plug unit into grounded electrical outlet
3. Do not use an extension cord
4. Do not use a plug adapter
Power Supply: 115V, 60 Hz AC Only 1 Phase
Outlet Requirement: 3-Prong, GFI
Circuit Protector: 15 Amp Time Delay Fuse or Circuit Breaker
Place the Elite in your desired location. The inlet of the machine should be at least 8”
from any obstructions. If the unit has been transported in a horizontal position, allow it to
sit in an upright position for at least 30 minutes before operating.
Do not use dehumidifier in an environment where corrosive or high VOC materials are applied.
