Santa Fe™ Oasis105 Dehumidifier Next Major Advancement in Humidity Control for Pest Industry

residential dehumidifier with pump

The Santa Fe Oasis105 is the first residential dehumidifier with patented three-coil Efficiency Capacity Coil Optimization (ECCO) technology that maximizes energy efficiency and capacity in a very compact box.

ECCO technology replaces the traditional evaporator with a three-coil design in the Santa Fe Oasis105, enabling it to remove an unprecedented 7.6 pints of water for every kilowatt of energy at 80F and 60% RH.

  • The first coil pre-cools the air to saturation conditions using medium-temperature refrigerant.
  • Next, Coil #3 recovers Coil #1's energy by re-condensing the refrigerant. The refrigerant then drops to the evaporator temperature to squeeze moisture out of the air.

By utilizing the combination of the pre-evaporator (Coil #1) and recovery coils (Coil #3), the evaporator isn't burdened with sensibly cooling the air. Likewise, the energy required to pre-cool the air is fully recovered, offering a 30-40% capacity boost without any additional compressor capacity. Plus, using less energy to remove more water adds minimal waste heat to the living space.

"The ECCO three-coil technology allows the pest professional to offer the most energy-efficient dehumidifier available on the market," said Jeff Wimberly, General Manager for Santa Fe Indoor Air Quality Solutions. "The Santa Fe Oasis105 is 36% more efficient than Energy Star's 2022 Most Energy Efficient Dehumidifier but has less capacity. This new patented refrigeration system is exceptionally compact. It takes up 33% - 50% less space than other dehumidifiers on the market of similar efficiency, making the product easier to transport, install in crawl spaces, and warehouse."

The Santa Fe Oasis105 features a MERV 13 filter and dew point cut-out control that protects the unit from low-temperature inefficient operation and helps extend the life of the unit.

Additional features include:

  • On-board digital controls
  • Positive pressure drain that does not require a P-Trap, resulting in less maintenance
  • Integrated secondary drain pan with dedicated float switch port
  • Molded base with integrated handles for easy movement and installation
