I. Principle of Operation You have purchased a humidifier that operates on the evaporative principle. It will provide the proper relative humidity (see operating instructions) all during the heating season. It is very possible that you have questions concerning what your humidifier can do for you, and what you should do to receive maximum benefits from it. This booklet is intended to answer these questions. The humidifier operates in conjunction with the furnace blower motor.
PAGE 4
II. Operating Instructions Your humidifier is controlled by a manual humidifier control, HumidiTrac™ or Thermidistat™, installed either in the living area or in the cold air return. Automatic Humidifier Control: (for Manual Humidifier Control – see page 8) Your HumidiTrac™ Control is installed in the cold air return. During the first heating season, your HumidiTrac™ Control needs to be set initially to match your home’s condition. Please follow these steps when adjusting your control (refer to Figure A). 1.
PAGE 5
To check the humidifier’s operation, note the current setting and set the HumidiTrac™ Control to the Test mode when the furnace blower motor is operating. Water will flow into the humidifier for 1 minute and then it will turn off. This insures the humidifier is operating properly. Do not leave the control in the test mode as it will not operate. Reset the control to it’s original setting. Note: Turning the knob to “Test” resets the Humidifier Pad Change Indicator timer.

III. Effect of Water Characteristics VI. Periodic Preventative Maintenance Your humidifier will operate effectively using either hard or mechanically softened water. Any type of water (hard, soft, hot, or cold) is acceptable for use with the drain-type humidifiers. Hot supply water, 125°F (52°C) maximum, is recommended for all heat pump applications. The use of hot supply water will also increase the amount of humidity generated in other applications.
