the evaporator may be removed periodically through
the front clean-out opening. Allow space for withdrawal
of the tray when installing the humidifier.

necessary to prevent possible damage to flooring. This
may be caused by a rapid or sudden drainage of the
contents of the humidifier. The drain pan must be
connected to the sanitary waste water system.
