CHECK THE HUMIDIFIER OPERATION
Turn the control knob to the maximum RH setting. Make sure that the
water saddle valve is open and that the humidifier is on. The indoor unit
blower must be running for the humidifier to function. Once humidifier
operation is verified, reduce the Humidifier Control setting to the
recommended inside humidity, depending on the outside temperature.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Be sure to keep fireplace dampers closed when not in use. They provide
an excellent escape route for heat, as well as humidity.
On occasion, indoor moisture producing activities such as clothes drying,
cooking, showers, etc., may raise the humidity level higher than it should
be, even though the humidifier is not operating. Telltale indications are
condensation or frost on cold surfaces such as windows, doors, walls,
etc. If such condensation persists for several hours, your home should be
ventilated to dissipate the potentially damaging excess moisture.

MAINTENANCE
NOTE: The manufacturer of the device recommends that service be
performed only by a qualified technician. Contact your installing contractor
for service. See Cautions and Warnings on pages 2 and 3 prior to
attempting these procedures.
Turn humidifier off and allow humidifier to drain. Disconnect
power before servicing.
Inspect humidifier at approximately 500 hour intervals or several times
during the humidification season.
• Check system operation and inspect all plumbing connections and piping
for signs of cracks or leaks.
• Inspect drain line to make sure it is not blocked and has constant
downward slope. Clean or replace if necessary.
• Inspect steam hose to make sure it has no low spots and has constant
upward slope from humidifier to dispersion tube in duct. If dispersion
tube is mounted below humidifier, inspect drip tee drain.
• Two canisters are available for optimal performance. The Model 8043RP
is for typical water while the Model 8043LCRP is designed for low
conductivity and 120V installations. The 8043LCRP should never be used
with softened water.
