A/C Dehumidifier Mode

[Zorba]

Since we finally have a permanent slip I would like to run my A/C on dehumidifier mode when we are away from the boat. I have misplaced my manual when i was trying to read about this over the winter and can't remember the process. Can anyone give me a quick tutorial?

I can't recall my thermostat brand but i assume they are the same on boat in the same size range and era of my '05 260.

Thanks

I think you hold "fan" "heat" and "cool" at the same time and the unit will go into dehumidify mode.

Assuming it is the Crusair SMX controller, Press Off then Cool, Heat and Fan simultaneously.

The owner's manual can be found here.

The display will read HU when it is activated.

Thanks for the quick responses. If i remember correctly the last time i tried this the fan was blasting on high. Is there a way to lower it or is that how it works?

For ours when the mode is first enabled the fan does run but not high. I believe it cycles through various settings every 4 hours??

I'm sure it depends on which unit it is. My SMX defaults to high circulation for 10 mins, then low fan during 30 mins of AC, repeating every 12 hours.

I set it to run much more often than that, depending on the season.

The system is incredibly adjustable, but the referencing the manual is often necessary.

I have the manual on PDF but it is too large to load on this site. Send me a private message with your email and I will send it to you.
