TUBING

TUBING

Connect by-pass pipe to collar and humidifier cabinet. Using holes at

top and bottom of side panel discharge, pierce 2 self tapping screws

through by-pass pipe.

Mount the self tapping saddle valve on either a cold or a hot water

pipe. A side or top mount is best to avoid clogging from pipe

sediment. Connect 1/4” O.D. tubing to the saddle valve. Copper

tubing requires a brass compression nut and brass sleeve. Plastic

tubing requires a brass insert inside the tubing and a plastic sleeve

on the outside with a brass compression nut.
NOTE: DO NOT USE PLASTIC TUBING ON HOT WATER OR IN

CONTACT WITH ANY HOT PLENUM SURFACE OR DUCT.

INSTALLATION OF THIS SADDLE VALVE MUST MEET OR

EXCEED LOCAL CODES AND ORDINANCES.

Select location on vertical surface of warm or return air plenum for

mounting humidifier. Tape mounting template in place making sure the

template is level. Do not install humidifier or 6" bypass pipe where the

blanked off ends of a cooling coil will restrict air flow to the humidifier.

Extend horizontal centerline from template to the adjacent plenum. Scribe

6” circle 10” to 15” from side of humidifier, on cabinet centerline, using

connecting collar as guide.

Cut out center section of template and 6” hole. Humidifier is self

retaining. Slide top side in first, then slide chassis down. Level

chassis and install center screws. If by-pass pipe installs to

opposite side of chassis, bend clip on chassis, remove side

discharge, and reinstall discharge to opposite side of chassis.

Install remaining four corner screws.
