How to Install a Dehumidifier in a Grow Room | Step-by-Step Guide

https://cannadri.ca Welcome to our comprehensive guide on installing a dehumidifier in your grow room! Whether you're setting up a CAN 210 or a CAN 380, the installation process remains largely the same. Hanging your dehumidifier from the ceiling not only maximizes floor space but also optimizes its efficiency, as warm, humid air naturally rises in your room. In this step-by-step instructional video, we'll walk you through the entire installation process, ensuring a safe and efficient setup. Before you begin, remember that the CAN 210 weighs 145 pounds, while the CAN 380 weighs 330 pounds, so be prepared with the right equipment and maybe a helping hand. Key Installation Steps: Start by unboxing your dehumidifier and ensuring it can fit through a standard 36" doorway, even the CAN 380. Begin with three 4-foot pieces of Unistrut and secure them to your building's joists using lag bolts every 12 inches. Secure them properly to prevent accidents. Run a second piece of Unistrut parallel to the first, approximately 16 inches apart, aligning with the next joist, and repeat for the third piece. Cut two more pieces of Unistrut at 3 feet and bolt them together at a 90-degree angle. For the CAN 380, keep them 33.5 inches apart; for the CAN 210, maintain a 20-inch gap to match the tabs on the dehumidifier's bottom. Add a vibration dampener to reduce noise. Cut an 8-inch piece of 3/8 threaded ready rod (adjust according to your dampener's size), then bolt it to the Unistrut using washers and lock nuts (ensure the damper's rating matches your needs). Attach a second piece of ready rod, at least as tall as your dehumidifier (e.g., 29" for CAN 380, 19" for CAN 210), or longer based on your ceiling height. Now, it's time to plug your unit into a 240 Volt receptacle and configure the humidity settings using the controller. You can also integrate it with 3rd party environmental controls, such as the trolmaster Hydro X, by connecting the black wires of the humidistat HS-1. Considerations: Placement: Choose the best location for your dehumidifier by analyzing your existing ductwork. Avoid placing it near A/C vents to prevent inefficiency. Space multiple units evenly and ensure no warm, dry air blows directly into another unit. Accessibility: Maintain a minimum 18" distance between the dehumidifier and the wall to ensure convenient access for maintenance. Leveling: Ensure your unit is level to allow proper drainage. Drain Setup: Set up your drain using a trap and plumb it at a downhill pitch until it reaches the drain. Don't forget to prime the trap.
