Before you buy
- Confirm duct layout, controls and drain accessories with the installer.
- Allow 15 inches for filter access on either side per combined manual 10020792B 02.24.
- Buy the base plug variant; hardwired, caster and Wi-Fi bundles are distinct listings.
The tradeoffs
- More advertised capacity does not automatically mean a better fit.
- The higher capacity is not a moisture-load assessment; confirm the complete installation and its airflow assumptions.
