SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

PLEASE READ BEFORE INSTALLING HUMIDIFIER

1. Donot install a humidifier where the heating temperatures will exceed 180°F. Excessive temperatures will damage your humidifier and possibly cause an overflow condition and water damage to the home.
2. Donot install a humidifier where the surrounding temperature may be 32°F or colder. Freezing water will damage the humidifier and burst the supply pipe, resulting in home damage.
3. Donotcutor drill into any air conditioning or electrical accessories during humidifier installation. Fatal electrocution is possible if you come into contact with a live electrical wire. Blindness can occur if freon contacts your eyes.
4. When the humidifier is in a finished basement or any area that water damage could occur, always connect the overflow provision of the humidifier to a suitable drain.
5. For above ceiling installation, always install a drain pan plumbed to a suitable drain.
6. Although high levels of humidity are usually preferred, especially when colder temperatures present dryer conditions, these settings may not always be maintained for your home. High levels of humidity connot be maintained in homes without reasonably insulated walls and windows. These areas could accumulate condensation and cause damage to the home because of cold surface temperatures. Listed below are some initial recommendated settings for your humidifier.

WHAT IS RELATIVE HUMIDITY?
You’ve heard the term, “Relative Humidity”? Usually, it is used in connection with local weather reports. Relative humidity refers to the percentage of water vapor present in the atmosphere at any given temperature, compared to the amount of vapor that the air can fully absorb at the same temperature. In other words, 50% humidity means the air is presently holding one half of the moisture itis capable of holding at the existing temperature. Naturally, complete filling of the air with water vapor is designated as 100% humidity. When air is heated by your central heating system, the warmer air now has the ability to hold more water than before. Without a central humidifier, moisture is not added and the relative humidity decreases.
The following table shows the drastic humidity changes when outside air is heated to 72°F.

Compare the above dry conditions to famous dry places in the world such as the Sahara Desert and Death Valley, whose humidity is approximately 20%.
As you can see, desert dry cenditions can be created in homes without a central humidifier.

HUMIDITY QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

1. What is the safe humidity level for my home?
   Below are listed the recommended settings for your humidity control. Because relative humidity affects everyone differently, these settings can be raised or lowered to suit your personal comfort.
   WARNING: Setting your humidity control higher than the listed setting could cause conden- sation that would damage your home. If excessive moisture appears on windows or walls, reduce humidity setting at humidistat enough to eliminate condensation. If the situation continues, turn off water valve until condensation is gone. At Outside Temperature| Recommended Setting
   ---|---
   —20°F.| 15
   —10°F.| 20
   O°F.| 25
   +10°F.| 30
   +20°F.| 35
   Above 20°| 40

Your unit may be equipped with a humidistat that has different relative humidity settings, if so use the following recommended settings:

2. How long will it take my humidifier to build up the humidity in my home?
   The period of adjustment can take up to three weeks. This is understandable since furniture, woodwork, carpeting, plaster and house plants will absorb the newly produced moisture until they reach normal levels.

3. Is it true that a humidifier can save me money on my heating bill?
   Not only does a dry indoor temperature affect you, but it also has a decided influence on how much fuel you use to heat your home. Engineering reports show it takes more fuel to make you feel comfortable in a dry atmosphere than it does when the air is properly moisturized or humidified. Dry air absorbs or evaporates moisture from your skin. This evaporation process draws heat from the surrounding atmosphere, automatically lowering the temperature at the surface of your skin. You feel cooler. With adequate moisture in the air, evaporation is slowed. Even at a lower temperature, you feel more comfortable.

4. What else causes static shock besides low humidity?
   Some fabrics and carpets produce extreme amounts of static electricity. Proper humidity can reduce the static level but it cannot eliminate it entirely.

5. Should my humidifier be connected to softened water?
   Either hard or soft water may be used. If installed on softened water, maintenance will be easier because the mineral build-up will be softer and easier to remove.

HOW THE MODEL 55 HUMIDIFIER WORKS
Warm dry air is forced across the evaporator pad by the furnace blower. When the home is dryer than the selected humidity, the humidistat turns on the low voltage solenoid allowing water to flow across the unit’s media. The warm dry air then evaporates some of this water. The moist air is then circulated throughout the home by the heating system.
HOW THE MODEL 86 HUMIDIFIER WORKS
Warm dry air is forced across the evaporator pad by the furnace blower. When the home is dryer than the selected humidity, the humidistat turns on the low voltage drum motor. The drum motor rotates a polyurethane foam evaporator pad that lifts water into the dry air stream out of the water pan. The moist air is then circulated throughout the home by the heating system.
SELECTING A LOCATION
Review the typical installations shown in Figures 1 through 4 for the Model 55 and Figures 5 through 8 for Model 86. Familiarize yourself with the heating system before installing the humidifier.
CAUTION: When installing the humidifier make certain that air flows across the units mounting hinges before entering the humidifier’s evaporative media.
The unit must always be mounted this way.
Using the Figures, select a location on the horizontal part of the duct that is at least 12 inches wide and preferably about 2 or more feet from the furnace; this distance from the furnace is not always necessary but will allow air turbulence to subside slightly before entering humidifier. In some installations this distance may not be obtainable; when this occurs it may become necessary for additional baffling in the duct to obtain adequate humidification.
Locate a cold water pipe. Locate a 120 volt power supply for the humidifier transformer within 5 feet of the humidifier (additional wire is required for additional distance). Wiring into the blower circuit is an acceptable power source for the transformer, providing the blower is not multi-speed.
NOTE: Wiring the Model 86 independent of the blower operation is suggested. This allows the humidifier evaporator pad to remain wet. This allows full usage of the blower on time. If the system contains a multi-speed blower motor, it is necessary to isolate the humidifier transformer to prevent premature burn out caused by the inductive current produced by the motor during high speed operation.
This can be accomplished by many different types of wiring and accessories, such as using a pressure sensor or fan sail switch (to detect blower operation) and using an independent electrical circuit to power the humidifier transformer. CAUTION: You must comply with all local codes, ordinances and regulations pertaining to plumbing and electrical wiring.
NOTE: Model 55 Flow-Thru humidifier must be electrically wired to operate only during blower motor operation (requiring use of one of the previously described wiring methods). This is to eliminate the waste of water during periods that the heating system is off.

INSTALLATION

1. Atthe selected location, hold the mounting frame on the bottom horizontal side of the duct with the long sides of the frame parallel to the length of the duct, and the end with the hinges toward the heating unit so that the air flow is in the direction indicated in Figure 9.

2. DANGER: Do not cut into any air conditioning or electrical accessories during installation. Fatal electrocution is possible if you come into contact with a live electrical circuit. Blindness can occur if Freon contacts your eyes.

3. Mark and drill 2 or 3 of the mounting holes 744″ dia. and temporarily attach the mounting frame with the #8 sheet metal screws provided and mark the remaining holes and center opening as described in Figures 10 and 11.

4. Now remove the frame and drill the remaining mounting holes 7%,” dia.
   Drill a 3″ dia. hole within the center section and cut and remove the rectangular section as previously marked.

5. When mounting the Model 55, an additional notch is required as shown in Figure 10. Measure and mark as indicated and cut out this section.

6. Now mount the mounting frame on the duct with the screws provided, in the direction as shown in Figures 9, 10, 11 while making certain of the correct direction of air flow.

FINAL ASSEMBLY MODEL 55

1. Place the humidifier housing (pan) on the mounting frame by inserting hinge pins into mating hinge halves on the mounting frame.

2. Place the evaporator pad between the two guide rails in the bottom inside sides of the pan, then place the pad frame combination drip tray assembly over the evaporator pad, with the rubber grommet facing you.
   Insert the plastic water tube in reverse to the procedures shown in Figure 13.

3. Now raise the unit into a closed position and securely fasten in place.

FINAL ASSEMBLY MODEL 86

1. To install the drum assembly, simply reverse the direction of the arrows in Figure 14 showing drum assembly removal. Start by inserting the drum shaft end opposite the metal tabs into the round bearing in the side of the pan. Some force will be needed to deflect the plastic retaining spring on the outside of the pan. Then, align the metal tabs with the slotted opening in the motor coupling and engage them in the coupling.
2. Install the baffle in the inside of the duct as shown in Figure 15. First, mark the two holes on the top inside of the duct, by holding the baffle in place about 6” from the side of the opening as shown in Figure 15, then drill two holes “/s” dia. through the top inside of the duct and attach with two #8 sheet metal screws provided.
3. Proceed to the plumbing instructions prior to completing the installation, then return to here for correct water level adjustment.
4. The water must be adjusted prior to mounting the pan on the duct; correct level is approximately 2” or when the water is level inside the drum assembly as shown in Figure 16.
5. Place the humidifier housing (pan) on the mounting frame by in- serting pins into mating hinge halves on the mounting frame.
6. Raise the unit into a closed position and securely fasten in place.

PLUMBING

1. Select the nearest cold water pipe and install saddle connector and needle valve supplied with this unit. Mount valve so water will come from top or side. This will reduce the chance of minerals, etc. from clogging the valve. It is a self-piercing unit when installed on copper pipe. Follow the instructions that are supplied with the vaive. Either hard or soft water may be used. However, soft water will require more frequent maintenance but the cleaning will be easier. ATTENTION: Do not use any line connected to an air conditioner.

2. PLEASE READ: COMPRESSION PLUMBING TIPS
   a) Make sure that the tubing is fully inserted into fitting before tightening compression nut.
   b) Use a brass ferrule with copper tubing.
   c) Lightly clean the tubing ends with fine sandpaper before making any connections.
   d) Fully insert the tubing into the valve fittings and tighten the compression nut. Do not over-tighten. Moderate tightness should prevent leaking.

3. Thoroughly flush supply tubing after attaching to saddle valve to clear line of debris which could block water flow at the float valve. Route the tubing to the humidifier float valve. Be sure to keep the tubing off of hot surfaces and away from sharp edges.

4. For water line connection to the Model 55 skip ahead to #6.

5. For water line connection to the Model 86 you must use the instructions found in the individual part bags for copper tubing.

6. Shown below, in order of assembly, are the parts for completing the water connection for the Model 55. Pay close attention to the proper orientation of parts for assembly and disassembly. This will assist you when cleaning the orifice fitting and filter.

7. Now connect the supply tubing, turn water on and check for leaks.
   Stop leaks by further tightening fittings.

8. If wiring is complete at this point, you may test for water flow by activating the furnace blower and allowing a few minutes for operation, then check for a flow of water exiting the drain fitting on the bottom of the humidifier. If wiring is not complete, proceed on and return to this procedure after completion.
