INTRODUCTION
The Bryant Model 905D Duct Humidifier is shipped
complete and ready for mounting to the supply air
duct of the heating unit. The humidifier is connected
electrically to the heating unit blower circuit and
operates only when the blower is running on heating
cycles. The water supply connects to the float-valve
assembly, mounted in the upper front corner of the
humidifier pan. The waterflow is automatically con­
trolled by the float.
We recommend the use of a humidistat with the
Model 905D because of its high humidification
capacity.
The Bryant Humidifier includes the following:
Disc assembly
Drive motor
Water pan
Water valve and float assembly
Sight window
Drain plug

mounting bracket, and saddle valve assembly.

1. Check local codes and ordinances for
requirements.
2. Check power supply to be sure it corresponds to
that specified on the rating plate (115-60-1).
Installation of the Model 905D Humidifier comprises
the following steps (sections):
I. Locating the Unit

I. LOCATING THE UNIT
The unit should be located on a supply air duct
having a minimum width of 12 inches. For best
operation, locate unit where air is evenly distributed
in the duct. The duct should be level, within 1/4 inch
per foot at the point of installation.

humidifier can be mounted is 8 inches high by 12
inches wide. Bryant’s Model 905D Humidifier is
designed for indoor installation only.

II. MOUNTING THE UNIT
,1. Tape paper template to duct at desired location;
proceed to cut opening and drill holes per in­
structions printed on template.
2. Install mounting bracket and latches. See
Figinre 3.
3. Slide humidifier pan rim, one without foam tape,
into mounting bracket. Lift unit into place and
turn latches so they catch rim of humidifier.
4. Check for air leaks. Use stiffeners around duct
opening to straighten duct if necessary.
III. CONNECTING WATER SUPPLY
NOTE: Unsoftened water is recommended.
1. Tap off nearest cold water line with self-piercing
saddle valve provided. Follow directions on
packet for installing saddle valve.
2. For connecting main water supply to humidifier
pan, use Bryant’s optional tubing kit P/N
65193D01 (instruction included in kit). In a few
cases, because of local codes, it may be necessary
to use 1/4-inch copper tubing rather than plastic
tube supplied in Bryant tubing kit. Tubing line
should be purged with water before connecting to
float-valve assembly.
3. A drain line can be connected to 1/2-inch OD
outlet located in right-hand corner of humidifier
pan when facing humidifier motor. Run line to
an open drain.
