Cleaning the Humidifier (optional)
I
f the unit was furnished with a humidifier it requires periodic maintenance. Follow the instructions
in the humidifier guide.
Heating Coil Option
The heating coil is located between the evaporator coil and blower inside the transition duct. It
contains the heating element and high temperature limit switches. The heating coil is wired to work
in conjunction with the thermostat. Since the thermostat prevents the heating and cooling circuits
from being energized at the same time, no additional power wiring is needed. We do recommend
using the AUTO mode on the thermostat so it can switch from heating to cooling automatically. If
using either the heat or cool only mode, the thermostat will not switch automatically.
