Frequently Asked Questions - DR65A3000 HONEYWELL

How to install the DR65A3000 dehumidifier?

Installation must be performed by a qualified technician. Turn off power before starting. The unit must be leveled and installed on a stable base, indoors. Connect the ducts (10-inch inlet and outlet) and the drain (1/2-inch hose with trap). Use a ground fault circuit interrupter. Follow the wiring diagrams according to the chosen controller.

What type of filter to use and when to replace it?

Use a MERV 11 filter (part #50070171-002) measuring 14 x 17.5 x 1.75 inches. Replace it at least once a year, or more often if the air is dusty. To clean, remove the magnetic filter access door and replace it.

How to drain water from the dehumidifier?

Water drains through a 3/4-inch female NPT fitting. Connect a 1/2-inch hose with a hose clamp. The line must have a trap to prevent air intake. Route the drain to a condensate pump or a drain. The unit must be level for proper drainage.

Can I use the DR65A3000 with an existing thermostat?

Yes, it is compatible with several Honeywell controllers, such as the T10 Pro smart thermostat, the Prestige IAQ, the VisionPRO, or the HumidiPRO H6062 dehumidistat. Specific wiring is required depending on the model.

What to do if the unit does not dehumidify?

Check power (unit plugged in, circuit breaker), humidity setting (must be low enough), wiring, and fuse. If the fan runs but the compressor does not, the capacitor or compressor may be defective. If the compressor stops frequently, the ambient temperature or humidity may be too low (defrost) or the filter is clogged.

Where to install the dehumidifier in the house?

Install it indoors, in a location protected from rain and flooding. Place it on a solid base, away from walls for access. Avoid directing exhaust air toward people or a pool. A condensate pan is recommended if installed above a living area.

What is the dehumidification capacity of the DR65A3000?

The DR65A3000 model removes up to 65 pints of water per day under standard conditions (80 °F, 60% RH). Capacity varies with ambient temperature and humidity. For example, at 70 °F and 60% RH, capacity is about 47 pints/day.

Is the unit warranted and for how long?

Yes, the dehumidifier has a 5-year limited warranty from the date of purchase by the original consumer, against defects in materials and workmanship. To claim warranty, contact customer service at 1-800-468-1502 or return the product with proof of purchase.

How to clean and maintain the dehumidifier?

Once a year, unplug the unit, remove and replace the filter. Check the drain and hose for debris. Ensure connections are tight. Restore power and test by lowering the humidity setting. Reset maintenance reminders on the thermostat if necessary.

Can the DR65A3000 be used outdoors?

No, this unit is designed for indoor use only. It must be installed in a location protected from rain and flooding. Do not expose it to water or extreme temperatures outside its operating range (34 °F to 135 °F).

About the DR90A3000/DR120A3000 Dehumidifier

The DR90A3000/DR120A3000 ensures the home is maintained at proper humidity levels through its high performance and efficiency.

Benefits

• Removes up to 90 (DR90) or 120 (DR120) pints of water per day from the indoor air
  • Built-in fresh air supply
  • Energy Star Rated
  • Built-in transformer and fuse

Maintaining Ideal Humidity

Dew points and relative humidity (RH) affect the way your body senses heat. Higher humidity levels cause the air to feel much hotter than the actual temperature. When maintained properly, your cooling equipment may not run as much because dehumidified air feels cooler.

Ideal humidity is defined by industry experts* as being between 40-60% on an average annual basis.

Two black industrial air ducts with ventilation ducts, labeled DR120 and DR90 (no text beyond labels)

Capacity:

47 pints/day (60 °F [15.6 °C], 60 %RH)

65 pints/day (70 °F [21.1 °C], 60 %RH)

90 pints/day (80 °F [26.7 °C], 60 %RH)

When indoor humidity exceeds 60%, the home is more susceptible to mold and mildew growth. DR90A3000/DR120A3000 safeguards against excessive humidity in the home year-round.

Checkout

Apply power to DR90A3000/DR120A3000. Turn the humidity control to a low RH% level to initiate a dehumidification call. Confirm that the DR90A3000/DR120A3000 compressor and fan turn on. The furnace blower will also turn on to circulate air. This will take up to two minutes. Be sure to turn the control to the desired RH% or to Off when checkout is complete.

If using for ventilation, initiate a call for ventilation. Confirm that the DR90A3000/DR120A3000 fan turned on, but that the compressor remained off.

Cleaning

On an annual basis, perform the following maintenance requirement to ensure the dehumidifier runs at peak efficiency.

Unplug DR90A3000/ DR120A3000 before beginning service. Remove the magnetic filter door.

Technical Description

DR90A3000/DR120A3000 uses a refrigeration system similar to an air conditioner to remove heat and moisture from incoming air and add heat to the air that is discharged. Hot, high-pressure refrigerant gas is routed from the compressor to the condenser coil. The refrigerant is cooled and condensed by giving up its heat to the air that is about to be discharged from the unit. The refrigerant liquid then passes through a filter drier and capillary tubing which causes the refrigerant pressure and temperature to drop. It next enters the evaporator coil where it absorbs heat from the incoming air and evaporates. The evaporator operates in a flooded condition, which means that all the evaporator tubes contain liquid refrigerant during normal operation. A flooded evaporator should maintain nearly constant pressure and temperature across the entire coil, from inlet to outlet.

Problem Recommended Troubleshooting Steps
Fan does not run with ventilation activated.Compressor runs briefly but cycles on & off with humidity control turned to ON.	1. Loose connection in fan circuit.2. Obstruction prevents fan rotation.3. Defective fan.4. Defective fan relay.5. Defective fan capacitor.
Evaporator coil frosted continuously, low de-humidifying capacity.	1. Defrost thermostat loose or defective.2. Low refrigerant charge.3. Dirty air filter(s) or airflow restricted.
Unit not providing ventilation.	1. Check control wire connections (check connections at fresh air damper also).2. Defective fresh air damper.3. Dirty air intake. Clean outside intake hood.
Unit removes some water, but not as much as expected.	1. Air temperature and/or humidity have dropped.2. Humidity meter and or thermometer used are out of calibration.3. Unit has entered defrost cycle.4. Dirty air filter.5. Defective defrost thermostat.6. Low refrigerant charge.7. Air leak such as loose cover or ducting leaks.8. Defective compressor.9. Restrictive ducting.10. Optional Condensate Pump Safety Switch open.
Unit Test to determine problem:	1. Detach field control wiring connections from main unit.2. Connect the R and FAN contacts from the main unit together; only the impeller fan should run. Disconnect the wires.3. Connect the R and DHUM contacts from the main unit together; the compressor and impeller fan should run.4. If these tests work, the main unit is working properly. You should check the control panel and field control wiring for problems next.5. Remove the control panel from the mounting box and detach it from the field installed control wiring. Connect the blue, yellow, and green wires from the control panel directly to the corresponding colored pigtails on the main unit.Leave the violet, white, and red wires disconnected!6. Turn on the humidity control. The compressor and impeller fan should run.7. If these tests work, the problem is most likely in the field control wiring.
