ATTENTION INSTALLER:
This product must be installed in compliance with all local, state and federal codes.
RISK OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.
1. Do not install in attic or crawl areas.
2. Do not install humidifier where freezing temperatures
could occur. The water line could freeze and crack
causing water damage to the home.
3. Do not install humidifier on the furnace cabinet.
4. Do not install humidifier on a plenum face where the
blanked off ends of the cooling coil will restrict air
movement through the humidifier.
5. Do not set humidity level above recommended or to
recommended level if condensation exists on inside
windows of any unheated space, as condensation
damage may result. Excess humidity can cause moisture
accumulation which can allow the possibility for mold
growth in the home.

6. Do not connect the humidifier power cord to multi-speed
furnace blower motors or blower motors other than 120
VAC. Premature component failure may result.
7. When installing Humidifier Control on a downflow
furnace, ensure blower continues to run after a heat call
is satisfied to eliminate high temperatures from
damaging the Control.
8. Do not install humidifier where water pressure exceeds
125 psi, since damage to the humidifier may result.
Follow codes in effect concerning pressure reduction.
9. Do not install humidifier on the supply plenum where
static pressure exceeds 0.4 in. wg.

NOTES
1. The humidifier is not
suitable for installation on
ducts with horizontal
airflow. Performance will be
reduced. For such
applications, use a Large
Bypass Humidifier.
2. When installing humidifier
on a heat pump system, use
hot water. The heated water
supplements the reduced
supply air temperature as
added heat for evaporation.
3. If fresh air is piped directly
into the return air duct, it
must be installed
downstream of humidifier.
