the major issue is you wont know how much DH you need. Specs on the Santa Fes is pretty straightforward, they give you all their ratings up front.

I think you are going to need to ask peeps what size room and how big of a DH did they run.


15k room, 20x20 and a classic wouldnt work, even with AC. Had to get the biggest one, the max

Most are pretty darn comparable when it comes to efficiency ratings, but the big difference is that they have multiple product lines with varying features that help with our cause.

The Dual Max HT is big & moves a lot of air from multiple ports, which can be flanged & ducted. Hard switch so if the power fails, it starts up again. But it needs a condensate pump that is set lower than the base of the unit, requiring the castor kit or a stand. The humidistat is a general dial, not specific in readings. Its heavy & akward... good if your not going to move it around. But kicks ass in removing water.

The Phoenix is portable & rugged & just as efficient, practically. Has a built in pump & big wheels which helps move around... though just as big, shaped differently. Moves good air & has a power recall function if the power fails or used with a controller.

Practical experience, hope it helps. Peace
