Santa Fe Ultra205 Ventilating Dehumidifier

Description

The Santa Fe Ultra205—previously known as the Ultra-Aire XT205H—is a high-performance dehumidifier designed for large homes up to 5,000 square feet. Despite its impressive capacity, it maintains the same compact cabinet size as other Ultra series models with lower output. This 205-pint ventilating dehumidifier is considered the largest capacity whole-house residential dehumidifier on the market.

Top-Tier Whole-Home Coverage: Built to handle demanding environments, this high-capacity model delivers reliable humidity control for large homes up to 5,000 sq. ft.—even those with soaring ceilings.

Seamless Duct Integration: Designed for flexibility, it can be ducted to provide whole-home dehumidification and even bring in fresh air ventilation.

Accessories for Fresh Air Ventilation

Looking to bring fresh air into your home while managing humidity? The Ultra series can be configured to do just that—circulating outdoor air while it dehumidifies. In modern, tightly sealed homes, indoor air can become more polluted than the air outside, often due to everyday sources like fireplaces, cleaning products, furniture, pets, and gas appliances. Bringing in fresh air helps reduce these pollutants, creating a healthier space for you and your family. It’s also a great way to achieve gentle, natural ventilation during dry seasons when a full dehumidifier cycle isn’t necessary. To set this up, you’ll need an inlet hood, your choice of ducting accessories, and a digital controller like the DEH 3000 or DEH 3000R.

Tailored to Fit Your Home

The Ultra205 is built to work with your home’s ductwork, providing whole-home humidity control. Whether you install it in a basement, crawl space, attic, closet, or mechanical room, it’s flexible enough to fit your space. A range of ducting accessories is available, so you can create a setup that suits your specific layout and needs
