Research Products 5660 Dehumidifier Hanging Kit

Product Description

The RESEARCH PRODUCTS 5660 is a dehumidifier hanging kit designed to suspend compatible whole-home dehumidifiers from ceiling joists or structural framing in residential and light-commercial installations. The kit uses 14-gauge zinc-plated steel construction with 10-foot cables and Gripple clamps for secure, adjustable suspension. A total safe working load of 400 pounds provides reliable overhead support. Quarter-inch-thick black neoprene pads are included to isolate vibration and reduce noise transfer to the structure. HVAC technicians and mechanical contractors typically install this kit as part of a complete dehumidifier system setup.

This hanging kit is suited for attic, crawlspace, and mechanical room installations where floor space is limited and overhead suspension is preferred. The hardware set supports a clean, stable mount without requiring custom fabrication. Compatible dehumidifier models are listed in the Compatibility section below. The kit ships as a complete assembly with all necessary fasteners and tooling included, reducing trips to the supply house during installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or mechanical contractor. Confirm that the overhead structure can support the combined weight of the dehumidifier, refrigerant lines, and condensate plumbing before mounting. Power down and disconnect the dehumidifier unit completely before attaching or adjusting the hanging assembly. Follow local mechanical codes and the dehumidifier manufacturer's installation instructions for proper cable spacing and fastener torque guidance.
