The Phoenix AirMAX is the new leader in performance,
convenience, portability, and safety for low profile air
movers.
Its compact 20 1/2” X 17” footprint and 8 7/8” height
make the Phoenix AirMAX the most compact and portable
fan in its class. The rugged molded in handle gives you
the solid control required when packing and unpacking
lots of air movers. Its easy-winding cord wrap and multiple
securement options makes it a snap to prep for transport.
Because of its deeply-molded interlocking features, the
Phoenix AirMAX is rock solid when stacked for transport.
With its Patent Pending, low resistance motor support
bracket and optimized outlet shape, the Phoenix AirMAX
delivers airflow of over 925 CFM. This gives you high velocity
air over a 25% larger area than other low profile air movers.
In addition, the Phoenix AirMAX is stable on all 5 sides for
maximum flexibility to position and direct the drying.
The Phoenix AirMAX is the safest fan in its class providing a
quality GFCI convenience receptacle that protects not only
connected loads, but onboard components as well. This is
unlike competing fans that require external GFCI protection.
In addition, where competitors position high voltage
electrical connections low to the floor, the leading edge
design of the Phoenix AirMAX allows these connections to
be located more than 4 times the minimum required height.
The Phoenix AirMAX is built to keep our customers, and their
customers, safe.
The Phoenix AirMAX
• 925 CFM, 1.9A
• Onboard circuit breaker and branch protection GFCI
• Daisy chain up to 6 fans on a single 15 Amp circuit
• Ultra secure stacking and cord wrap
• All Stainless Steel Fasteners

2 Important Safety
Instructions
CAUTION: Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death
to reduce the risk of electric shock:
• Do not expose to standing water or rain
• Unplug fan before servicing.
• Do not block air intake or outlet. One foot minimum
distance to obstructions.
Indoor use only
• Do not use as stool or bench
• Do not operate with damaged cord or plug.
• Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with
throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings. Do not route
cord under furniture or appliances. Arrange cord away
from traffic area and where it will not be tripped over.

Controls
AVERTISSEMENT: Ne Convient Pas a Des Regulateurs De
Vitesse a Semi-Conducteurs

3 Operation
3.1 Transporting the Phoenix AirMAX
The Phoenix AirMAX is designed to be stacked vertically or
horizontally (“Bookshelf Stacking”) for transport.
3.2 Electrical Requirements
The Phoenix AirMAX can be plugged directly into any
standard wall receptacle. Without ducting, the Phoenix
AirMAX will draw 1.9 amps at 120 VAC. Ducting will reduce
amp draw. Up to 6 Phoenix AirMAXs can be daisy chained
on a standard 15 amp branch circuit.

3.3 Ducting
The lip on the exhaust opening of the Phoenix AirMAX is
designed to accommodate layflat ducting with 14” or larger
diameter.
3.4 Resettable Circuit Breaker
The 12 Amp thermal circuit breaker protects the unit and
devices connected to its duplex GFCI receptacle. In case
of a fault, the breaker can be reset at the Phoenix AirMAX
control panel.
Use of multiple fans and any other connected devices must
be in accordance with the National Electric Code and any
additional codes or laws required by your local government.
IMPORTANT: Total amperage of the Phoenix AirMAX plus all
devices plugged into its convenience receptacle is limited
by the onboard circuit breaker. Excessive current will cause
the circuit breaker to trip. This may occur instantly or after a
period of time depending on the operating conditions.
IMPORTANT: When the Phoenix AirMAX is plugged into a
standard “powered” wall outlet the Phoenix AirMAX’s duplex
outlet is electrically “HOT” and AC voltage is present.
3.5 GFCI Protection and the On-Board Duplex
Receptacle
The on-board convenience receptacle provides electrical
shock protection for the operator in damp or wet
applications or other conditions that would cause a ground
fault. The Phoenix AirMAX is wired to branch protect all
on-board components in addition to protecting any fans or
other equipment plugged into the onboard receptacle.
Testing GFCI operation can be done by pressing the “TEST”
button located on the GFCI duplex outlet. If operating
properly, the “RESET” button will pop out. In addition,
notice that the fan will NOT operate if the GFCI outlet is in
the TRIPPED condition as the motor and other on-board
components are included in the GFCI protected circuit.
The GFCI circuit can only be “RESET” when the Phoenix
AirMAX is connected to a properly grounded wall outlet
providing the rated voltage.
4 Maintenance
WARNING: Disconnect the unit from power before servicing
or cleaning. Replace all safety grills after servicing or
cleaning
4.1 Power Cord
Visually inspect cord and plug head before use. If there are
signs of damage or excessive wear, discontinue use until the
unit has been serviced.
4.2 Cleaning
The housing is made of durable and washable
polypropylene. When cleaning, the use of solvents is NOT
recommended.
When washing inside the unit, disconnect the unit from its
power source. Protect the switch, receptacle and circuit
breaker from water intrusion. Do not spray water or cleaning
solution at motor. If motor does get wet, allow motor to dry
completely before restarting. If fan is to be washed and not
used within 24 hours, allow fan to drip dry for 10 minutes
and then run for 5 minutes before storing.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT remove impeller blade from motor
assembly. Doing so can cause blade to become imbalanced
upon re-assembly.
4.3 Service
CAUTION: Servicing the Phoenix AirMAX with its high voltage
circuitry presents a health hazard that could result in death,
serious bodily injury, and/or property damage. Disconnect
the appliance from the power supply before servicing. Only
qualified service people should service this unit.
CAUTION: If the supply cord or GFCI become damaged, they
must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

End-User Responsibilities: Warranty service must be performed by a Servicer authorized by Therma-Stor
Products. If the end-user is unable to locate or obtain warranty service from an authorized Servicer, he
should call Therma-Stor Products at the above number and ask for the Therma-Stor Products Service
Department, which will then arrange for covered warranty service. Warranty service will be performed
during normal working hours.
The end-user must present proof of purchase (lease) upon request, by use of the warranty card or
other reasonable and reliable means. The end-user is responsible for normal care. This warranty does
not cover any defect, malfunction, etc. resulting from misuse, abuse, lack of normal care, corrosion,
freezing, tampering, modification, unauthorized or improper repair or installation, accident, acts of
nature or any other cause beyond Therma-Stor Products’ reasonable control.
Limitations and Exclusions: If any AirMAX Fan part is repaired or replaced, the new part shall be
warranted for only the remainder of the original warranty period applicable thereto (but all warranty
periods will be extended by the period of time, if any, that the AirMAX Fan is out of service while
awaiting covered warranty service).
UPON THE EXPIRATION OF THE WRITTEN WARRANTY APPLICABLE TO THE AirMAX Fan OR ANY PART
THEREOF, ALL OTHER WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY LAW, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, SHALL ALSO EXPIRE. ALL WARRANTIES MADE BY THERMA-STOR

BE LIABLE UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION WATER DAMAGE (THE END-USER SHOULD TAKE PRECAUTIONS
AGAINST SAME), LOST PROFITS, DELAY, OR LOSS OF USE OR DAMAGE TO ANY REAL OR PERSONAL
PROPERTY.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, and some do not allow the
exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so one or both of these limitations may
not apply to you.
Legal Rights: This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary
from state to state.
