INSTALLATION

WARNING

Hazardous Voltage. Can cause personal injury or equipment damage.

Do not cut or drill into any air conditioning line or electrical accessory.

CAUTION

Freezing Water, Flooding or Static Pressure Hazard. Can cause water damage to home or permanent equipment damage.

• The humidifier must be located where the ambient

temperature is above 32°F and below 160°F (0°C and 71°C).

• Be sure supply plenum static pressure is no greater than 0.3 in. w.c. and water pressure is no greater than 125 psi.

IMPORTANT

To assure optimal product performance, be sure the template is level before marking location.

1. Determine the best location for the humidifier and draw a level line on the plenum. See Fig. 3.

2. Tape the template in position and trace around the template.

3. Remove the template and carefully cut the rectangular opening.

4. Disassemble the humidifier; remove the cover and take out the humidifier pad assembly. See Fig. 4.

NOTE: Sidewalls are interchangeable for either left or

right by-pass installation. To change direction, remove the screws holding each sidewall, switch sidewall locations and reinstall the screws.

5. Position the humidifier housing in the opening (be sure it is level), so the locking tabs are in place on the lower sheet metal edge of the opening.

6. Secure the humidifier housing to the opening at the top and bottom using sheet metal screws.

7. Locate the other plenum and cut an opening for a 6 in. (152 mm) collar.

8. Install the 6 in. (152 mm) collar.

NOTE: Be sure to install a duct damper for summer

shutoff on systems with air conditioning.

9. Install a 6 in. (152 mm) diameter duct from the collar to the humidifier.

NOTE: Some installations require a 90° elbow

attachment to the collar.

10. Seal the duct connections with duct tape.

NOTE: To avoid sagging and stress on the humidifier,

add support when ducting is longer than 4 ft (120 cm).

WIRING THE HUMIDIFIER

CAUTION

Hazardous Voltage. Can cause personal injury or equipment damage.

• Disconnect the power supply before installing or servicing.

• On multispeed blower applications, do not wire the high voltage side of the transformer to the same power source that services the furnace blower. Premature transformer burnout may occur.

All wiring must comply with applicable local codes, ordinances and regulations.

1. Mount the transformer in a convenient location.

2. Connect wires to the 120V side of the transformer.

3. Wire the humidifier solenoid valve, current sensing

relay, or sail switch, humidity control and transformer. Refer to the humidity control installation instructions for mounting and wiring information.

NOTE: Select models of fan centers include humidifier taps

so the current sensing relay or sail switch is not needed.
