FLOW THROUGH POWER HUMIDIFIER
18 GPD / 120V
Select location on vertical surface of warm air plenum for mounting
humidifier. Tape mounting template in place making sure the template is
level. Do not install humidifier where the blanked off ends of a cooling coil
will restrict air flow to the humidifier. Cut out center section of template.
Open cover and remove evaporator pad assembly. Humidifier chassis is
self retaining, slide top side in first then slide chassis down. Level chassis
and install eight screws.
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.
Connect 1/4" water supply tube to inlet of solenoid. DO NOT USE
PLASTIC TUBING IN CONTACT WITH ANY HOT PLENUM
SURFACE OR DUCT. IF USING PLASTIC TUBING, USE INSERT
FOR PLASTIC TUBING AND PLASTIC COMPRESSION SLEEVE
(INCLUDED WITH SADDLE VALVE KIT).
Connect drain hose to 1/2" spout on humidifier cabinet using hose clamp if
necessary. Run 1/2" hose to suitable drain such as floor drain, sewer or
laundry sink. Be sure hose has continuous slope and is not kinked at
any point.
