Can I exhaust this unit through the cellar wall into the living area of my home? Or is it preferable to exhaust through a duct To the outside?

You can do either - but the advantage of ducting/exhausting to the exterior is that the noise will be directed outdoors. Also, don't forget that you'll need to provide fresh air intake - again, this can come from indoors or outdoors - but if from the outdoors, you will need to add a compressor heater if the temperature of the intake drops below 40F. This option (the compressor heater) is available on our site as an option when building this cooling unit.

I used this to replace the cooling unit in a wine cabinet, but just exhaust it into the hallway where the cabinet is located and the heat load is reasonable.

It does not need to be vented outside per say. It can be ran in a closed room. However it is much more efficient when it's venting outside.

No, these units must installed in the orientation as shown in the picture. You may install the unit above the cellar, and the cold air can drop down through the ceiling, and the return air can come from the cellar through the ceiling. You will need our front intake hood in order to install in this way.

This is a through the ceiling fan. I could not imagine trying to configure the duct work to go out through a wall... I would not encourage use in a kitchen over a stove either, too much grease for this beast.

this dehumidifier is NOT quiet enough to use in a living room. it is designed to be in abasement. the fan works constantly to keep the air moving and hence remove thehumidity (which is what it is made for ). I researched dehumidifiers for basements andthis one is excellent for that application.

you can download the manual from modine. It gives pretty precise instructions on how to vent this system. For example, the max distance you can extend exhaust pipe and horizontally and minimum clearances from side walls ect. There are specific local codes which may apply also. All in all I found the manual sufficient. It will however tell you this unit should be installed by a qualified HVAC installer.

This unit in only suitable for protected outdoor installation. There is no way to vent the fumes through a duct, Noritz makes another model for that.

Needs to be installed in an open area where it can take in large volumes of air and also needs to exhaust through the roof unlike the electric units?

This is mainly a Floor Duct Vent as far as I recall. you may need an actual Wall Vent. Good Luck.

Ours is vented outside, but it can be used as a ductless range hood if you prefer.

Absolutely not as long as the rooms are connected. The air that is dehumidified will act as a sponge and draw in the moist humid air from the adjacent rooms. They do sell a duct kit which serves as a way for you to operate the dehumidifier in an area outside of your living space for aestethic purposes. If you have a finished basement with a utility area, you can mount the dehumidifier behind the wall and duct it in to the living space. I have done that very thing myself and it is a fantastic way to permanently install the unit. When deciding on placement keep in consideration that the dehumidifier must drain into either a sump pit or a condensation pump close to your central air system.

The exit exhaust blows VERY hot air out. I don't think it would work, the air exiting is much hotter than the machine is cooling. I bought 6 of these, meant to only buy three and had a nightmare with the vendor. See my review before buying. Also, the unit does not cool nearly as well as the description says. It seems to get a SMALL room down to about 73 but no further. A big size room it is marginal at best.

No, please dontThis specific model is designed for exterior installation only. However there is a similar product that is designed for interior installation but requires a duct venting to an exterior wall.it is a little cheaper but requires more installation work due to the exhaust ventilatio

Yes. You can not vent inside a structure. If you were mounting outside a garage the go with this unit. INSIDE a garage you NEED and indoor unit that exhausts to the exterior thru a vent. Mounting this unit in your garage is like running you car inside with the door shut - it will kill you from the CO2.

yes, you can. two key for this: a. exhaust ducking as big as possible. b. distance can not too long, otherwise exhaust fan will not enough power to push hot air out.

There's a 6" tube that will vent out the hot air from the unit. It's ideal if you had a window to let the hot air vent out otherwise it will probably just recirculate the hot air into your living room.
