SELECTING A LOCATION
Carefully study the location that you choose for your
humidifier. Install the humidifier so that if the humidifier
or any connection should leak, the water will not cause
damage. Under no condition is Sears, Roebuck and
Co., and the manufacturer, to be held liable for any
water damage in connection with this humidifier.
NOTE: Never install humidifier in attic or crawl space
where freezing may occur or leaking will cause water
damage.
Measure the open area on the furnace supply air
plenum (Fig. 1). You will need a space 20" wide and
13" high. The humidifier will mount on a supply air
plenum isy?" wide by overhanging the sides. In
addition, you should have 12" of working area on each
side to make the electrical and water connections.
Place Humidifier
NOTE: The easiest and quickest way to service the
humidifier will be from the front. To service from the
front you will need 23" of space in front of the plenum
and only 2" of space below the humidifier {Fig. 2).
If you do not have 23" of space in front, the humidifier
must be serviced from the bottom. Servicing from the
bottom will require l^/i clearance {Fig. 3).
If you do not have the space needed, or have a
counterflow furnace, refer to the installations shown
in Fig. 4, 5 and 6.
NOTE: If you have an air conditioning coil in your
supply air plenum, install the humidifier above or to
the slope side of the coil.
CAUTION: Be careful not to damage coil when
cutting into plenum {Fig. 1).
