Questions and answers
In the installation manual for the Model 1042-L humidifier, there are 4 different wiring diagrams. How do you determine which one should be used?
To determine which wiring diagram to use for the GeneralAire Model 1042-L humidifier, you first need to identify if your humidifier is standalone or built into the furnace system. Since the context mentions that the 1042 is a bypass or standalone unit, you focus on the standalone wiring options.
Next, you need to check how many wires are used to control the humidifier. If you have two wires coming out of the humidifier, you likely use a 2-wire configuration.
Therefore, you should select the standalone 2-wire wiring diagram from the installation manual.
