The Santa Fe Advance is intended for installation in crawlspaces or basements which experience short- to long-term high humidity conditions, however the attractively designed unit can be placed in almost any residential or business setting where humidity control is desired. The Santa Fe Advance is designed to operate in temperatures between 56°F and 95°F, which typically include lower temperatures found in basements and crawlspaces. In addition, the small physical profile of the unit allows it to be conveniently placed inside height restricted spaces.
The Santa Fe Advance will help maintain the structural integrity of your home, inhibit mold growth, and improve the indoor air quality of your home by removing odor-causing moisture and maintaining 50% or less relative humidity as recommended by the EPA, American Lung Association, and American Medical Association.
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 conventional dehumidifiers drops dramatically. At temperatures below 65°F, frost forms on the coils of a conventional unit and causes the unit to ice-up. Frost cuts down on air circulation so the unit does not remove as much moisture from the air. Some units have automatic defrost but remove minimal quantities of water in cooler conditions. However, even 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: When using the optional ducting kit - attaching ductwork to the unit promotes air circulation throughout the crawlspace allowing for the location of the unit by the crawlspace access door for convenience. The unit may also be located remotely when space doesn't allow for placement in the crawlspace.
The unit has 4 leveling feet, an 8' drain hose, and 10' power cord. Optional leveling casters are available to make unit more portable (leveling feet are standard). Separate fan control allows for continuous fan operation or operation only when the unit is actively removing moisture from the air. Humidity control knob allows unit to turn on and off automatically to maintain the humidity level that is ideal for your environment. Washable prefilter. Pleated air filter for finer particle removal.
Condensate drains via gravity from a port on the side of the unit. An optional pump kit can be purchased if water must be moved up and away from the dehumidifier. The pump kit can move water up to the outdoors, over to a sump pit or up to a sink (20 foot lift)

Comments about Thermastor Santa Fe Advance Dehumidifier (4029800):
This unit is killer...sucks water out like crazy. In a day it was under control. I accidently turned the level the wrong way one day and it was down to 30% the next day! Couldn't believe it!
I had been through 3 retail versions in 4 years. Very happy with this purchase. Thanks for solving a major headache for me! You will not be dissapointed!

Comments about Thermastor Santa Fe Advance Dehumidifier (4029800):
The product performs as advertised: quiet, efficient, very effective to dry humid areas. I use it in my basement and it takes care of the complete area that took two (70 pints each - [*]) dehumidifiers to control the humidity before. I also like how the product is constructed, to last and it is made in the USA.

Comments about Thermastor Santa Fe Advance Dehumidifier (4029800):
Use in basement. Thou the unit is noisy, we just turn it off when we are in the basement watching tv. Very happy with the unit except it sometimes condenses water on the outside of the bottom. I've set the entire unit in a big metal floor drain pan.([...]) We sometimes have weather with humidity in the 90's and quite hot.

Due to travel for work, I did not try the product until early fall. Based on humidity readings, it did not appear any more effective than the $200 unit from [...]. It will be interesting to see what happens during the heat and humidity of next summer.

Comments about Thermastor Santa Fe Advance Dehumidifier (4029800):
The product out did itself and more. I used it in a 3 foot crawl space because my wood floors were showing signs of concave or warping. In matter of weeks they were back to normal and the duck work quit sweating. I use it for this entire summer. Only two draw backs in the instructions, make sure to add a GFI for the plug and second on pump to make sure to clean it out before winter shut down. Great Product!

Summer Humidity
Comments about Thermastor Santa Fe Advance Dehumidifier (4029800):
About 5 years ago, I turned our approximately 1000 sq ft basement into a semi-finished recreation area. That meant needing a dehumidifier to get rid of the musty smell during the spring, summer, and fall here in the Boston area. I went through 4 dehumidifiers (each put to use in the spring which would then die by mid-fall). Each one needed to work constantly to keep the humidity around 50% and I think that's what led to their early demises.So after wasting [$] over the past 4 years ([$] a pop), I decided to bite the bullet and get a dehumidifier that is up to the task.While we've had the Sante Fe Advance for just 3 weeks now, I'm amazed by it. It rarely ever runs. When I hear the silence, I keep thinking that it broke down like the other dehumidifiers I've owned until I see the humidity on our hygrothermometer shows 50% and my nose smells a dry basement!Considering how little it seems to need to work to keep our basement dry, I fully expect for it to last for years. I wish I knew about this 5 years ago!

Crawl space
Comments about Thermastor Santa Fe Advance Dehumidifier (4029800):
Unit seems to work as advertised. I have had it for two months now. It is used in my crawl space to control humidity, as I had mold starting to grow there. Humid summers in Charlotte, NC area. I can hear the unit when it is on, in the main level of the house, but only if the house is quiet, otherwise you can not hear it. I have tried to adjust it to a moderate setting, holding humidity around 65%, give or take 4%. It runs in the night and early morning in my ~2100 sq ft crawl space. I am unable to comment on electricity usage exactly, as the AC is running quite a bit at the same time, but it seems to be fairly efficient, as I don't see a big difference compared with last year's ovarall summer usage. Overall, it does what it needs to do, and I am happy with the purchase. Seems well built, and I hope it will reliable for the next 10 years. Only time will tell.

Comments about Thermastor Santa Fe Advance Dehumidifier (4029800):
I used to have an old [...] dehumedifier and it struged to keep the humidity below 60%, it was "ON" all the time in the basement. Now, the Santafe stays on for 30 minutes and it shots off for 2 hours while maintaining a humidity between 43 to 52%, it's also very quite. Very happy with the product.
