Installation Sheet

GETTING
STARTED
Personal Safety
Wear safety glasses while installing the humidier.
Do not cut into any air conditioning or electrical line.
Follow professional safety standards and all local regulations for plumbing, electrical, and mechanical
considerations.
Mounting Location
Mount the humidier in a level position to avoid water damage and ensure maximum output.
Location must have access to a water line, drain, and power.
Do not install the humidier where the ambient temperature is lower than 34°F (1.1°C) or higher than 90°F
(40°C).
Mounting area must be strong enough to support humidier weight (up to 16 lbs [Fan] or 10 lbs [Bypass]).
Do not mount directly to ductboard.
If used near a pool or spa, make sure the humidier can not fall into the water or be splashed.
Ensure that the top and bottom covers of the humidier can be removed and that the pad is accessible from
the chosen location.
Water Supply and Drainage
Consult local plumbing codes for drain size, material, and maximum temperature allowed.
If Replacing an Old Bypass Humidier
The humidier is not identical in size and shape to other Honeywell bypass humidiers. Before performing a
retrot installation, you might need to:
Dry-t the humidier to the existing ducting, plumbing, and wiring before fastening it to the duct to ensure that
the existing connections will reach the humidier.
If the duct opening of the old humidier is not the right size for the humidier, choose a new location or cover
the old opening with a piece of sheet metal and cut a new opening specically for the humidier using the
template provided.
Important Installation Requirements
Failure to comply with these requirements will result in voided warranty, improper installation, and
service callbacks.
