INSTALLATION OPTIONS
Aprilaire® Model 700 and 700M can be installed on either the supply plenum or cold air return of a forced air handling system. The humidifier dimensions and serviceability must be considered when selecting the best location for the humidifier.
Hot water is recommended (140°F max) to provide maximum evaporative capacity. It is also recommended when the Blower Activation Feature is used with an Automatic Digital Humidifier Control, or on a heat pump system. The humidifier functions with cold, hot, softened, or unsoftened water.

Locate return duct mounted humidifier control at least 6" upstream of humidifier, or fresh air intake for accurate humidity sensing.
Locate wall mount humidifier control in areas unaected by drafts or heat sources for accurate humidity sensing.
Reduce the setting on the humidifier control if condensation forms on windows or in unheated spaces.
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE MAY OCCUR.
Do not install humidifier on the furnace jacket.
Do not connect the power cord to multi-speed furnace blower motors or blower motors other than 120 VAC. Use Aprilaire Model 50 Current Sensing Relay. Do not alter 120 VAC plug or hardwire the unit.
Do not install the humidifier on a plenum face at the blanked end of the cooling coil.
If water pressure exceeds 125 psi, reduce water pressure with devices allowed by local codes.
Do not use water with temperature greater than 140°F.
Do not install humidifier on systems with dierential pressure greater than 0.4 w.g. between the supply and return plenums.
When installing the humidifier control on the return duct of a downflow furnace, ensure the blower continues to run after a heat call is satisfied.
