NOTES
1.Models 700 and 700M are not suitable for installation on ducts with horizontal airflow. Performance will be reduced.
2.When installing the Aprilaire humidifier with the Aprilaire Digital Humidifier Control or on a heat pump system, use hot water. The heated water supplements the reduced supply air temperature as added heat for evaporation.
