Sequence of Operation

Humidifier will only operate when indoor blower is
operating.
in
When the level of moisture in the return air or living space
area drops below the set point of the humidistat/universal
control, the water solenoid valve opens, water flows into
distribution tray and weeps down through the evaporator
pad. By−pass air flows over the evaporator pad, increasing
the humidity of the air, and then back into the return air
stream. When the humidistat/universal control is satisfied
the water solenoid valve closes.
Cabinet

Humidifier is shipped for left−hand by−pass duct
connection.
For right−hand by−pass duct connection, rotate humidifier
cabinet 180º top for bottom and relocate solenoid valve to
