When heated, this air dries out and greatly increases its capacity to hold more moisture. By using a humidifier, a source of water is provided to satisfy this increased moisture holding capability, rather than having it drawn from our body surface and the surrounding furnishings in the home.
Remember to select a location that is readily accessible for periodic inspection and cleaning of your humidifier. This unit should be located on the cold air return side of the system for best results. However, if space does not permit, it can be mounted on the warm air supply side of the system.

15. When installing this humidifier above electric warm air heating elements or where water damage could occur from accidental overflow, connect a 1/2” drain hose to the brass overflow nipple. 16. Do NOT solder the drain line directly to the humidifier because heat can warp and damage the pan.
Electrical Installation This humidifier is intended to be wired independently of the integrated control panel on your furnace. This will provide power to the humidifier at all times, causing the evaporator pad drum to rotate constantly. WARNING Improper electrical wiring can cause personal shock, injury, or property damage.
Operation This 465-C1 humidifier operates on the silent principle of evaporation. When your unit is operating properly, you may observe the drum turning freely by looking through the observation window. Evaporation takes place as the air passes through the moistened evaporator pad held in place by the specially engineered rotating drum assembly.
Disconnect the overflow drain line and 7” diameter bypass duct. While holding the bottom pan, slide the stainless steel clip off the end of the humidifier. Lower the clip end of the pan slightly and move the pan from side to side, disengaging it from the metal loops at the other end.

If, within the warranty period, any Herrmidifier residential humidifier unit or component requires service, it must be performed by a competent heating and/or air conditioning contractor (preferably the installing contractor).
