READ COMPLETE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND INSTALLATION TEMPLATE BEFORE STARTING
This pro uct must be installe by a qualifie heating an air con itioning contractor. Failure to o so coul result in serious injury from electrical shock.
This pro uct must be installe in compliance with all local, state an fe eral co es.
ATTENTION INSTALLER:
SBP SMALL BYPASS HUMIDIFIER
The humi ifier can be installe on
either the supply or return plenum of
a force air han ling system an is
easily reversible for installation with
right han or left han bypass uct
connections. The humi ifier
imensions an serviceability must be
consi ere when selecting the best
location for the humi ifier.

WARNING
1. ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD.
Disconnect electrical power to the
furnace an install lock-out tag
before starting installation. Failure to
o so coul result in serious injury
from electrical shock.
2. SHARP EDGES HAZARD. Sharp
e ges may cause serious injury from
cuts. Use care when making plenum
openings an han ling uctwork.
3. RISK OF SCALDING. Water
temperature over 125°F can cause
severe burns an scal instantly.
Shut off the hot water supply before
isconnecting or tapping into any
hot water supply line.

CAUTION
1. Do not install humi ifier where freezing temperatures
coul occur. The water line coul freeze an crack
causing water amage to the home.
2. Do not install humi ifier or bypass connection on the
furnace cabinet.
3. Do not install humi ifier or bypass connection on a
plenum face where the blanke off en s of the cooling
coil will restrict air movement through the humi ifier.
4. Do not set humi ity level above recommen e or to
recommen e level if con ensation exists on insi e
win ows of any unheate space, as con ensation
amage may result. Excess humi ity can cause
moisture accumulation which can allow the possibility
for mol growth in the home.
5. Do not connect humi ifier transformer to
blower motor wiring. Premature component
failure may result.
6. When installing Humi ifier Control on
ownflow furnace, ensure blower continues to
run after a heat call is satisfie to eliminate
high temperatures from amaging the Control.
7. Do not install humi ifier where water pressure
excee s 125 psi, since amage to the
humi ifier may result. Follow co es in effect
concerning pressure re uction.
8. Do not install humi ifier on systems with
greater than 0.4 in. wg pressure ifferential
between supply an return plenums.

IMPORTANT! Be sure owner’s manual containing
instructions for operation an warranty information is given to
owner in or er to avoi unnecessary calls. Warranty is voi unless
humi ifier is installe by qualifie heating an air con itioning
contractor ue to possible misapplication of pro uct.
1. Remove front cover by pressing center
tabs on top an bottom of the cover (1) an
base (2). Pull fee tube (3) out of the water
istribution tray (4). Tip the evaporative
assembly forwar an lift it out of the
humi ifier. (S Figur 1)
2. The humi ifier comes assemble for left
si e ischarge. If converting to right si e
ischarge, the base can be rotate so roun
collar is facing to the right. Swap the location
of the hole plug (10) an rain spu (9) if using
a right si e ischarge. To remove the cap,
push an twist from insi e the housing while
lifting the cap up slightly on the outsi e. To
remove the rain spu , twist an push from
the outsi e of the base.
3. Using a level, position this template at
least 3 inches above the furnace housing or
cooling coil, if applicable, for clearance of
the rain line. Trace aroun template e ges.
Remove the template an accurately cut the
plenum opening 91⁄2”x91⁄2”, b ing car ful
to avoid injury from sharp dg s.
4. Place the humi ifier into the plenum
opening, install six sheet metal mounting
screws (not furnishe ) at the top an si es
of the humi ifier interior.
5. Install a 6”collar in a convenient location
on the opposite plenum. Attach a 90° elbow
an measure the length of 6”roun uct
require to make the connection. The esign
of the humi ifier collar provi es a soli
connection with the bypass uct through the
use of insi e support ribs an pre-forme
holes for sheet metal screws. Slip the uct
insi e the collar of the humi ifier, up to the
support ribs. Using the pre-forme holes at
the top an bottom of the humi ifier collar,
secure the uct to the humi ifier collar
with two sheet metal mounting screws (not
furnishe ). Support bypass ucts longer
than 4 feet to prevent sagging.
6. Reinstall the evaporative assembly
back into the base, with the bottom of the
scale control insert (6) sitting firmly in the
insi e of the rain spu (9). Push the fee
tube back into the water istribution tray.
(S Figur 2) Put the front cover back on.
If the nameplate (11) is upsi e own,
remove it by gently squeezing the tabs of
the nameplate from insi e the cover an
pushing out. Rotate the nameplate so it is
right si e up, an snap back into place.
Turn amper han le (8) to the open
position “WINTER” for the heating season,
or close position “SUMMER” for the
cooling season.
7. Locate an install the Manual Humi ifier
Control by following the instructions
shown in step #7A. For Automatic
Humi ifier Control installation instructions,
see Form IM-AHC-01 inclu e with the
Automatic Control. DISCONNECT
ELECTRICAL POWER TO FURNACE
BEFORE PROCEEDING!
LOCATION
1. Locate on insi e wall of living area
approximately 5 feet above floor, or
in the furnace return air plenum or
uct. A apter Plate Part No. 4402
(not inclu e ) is require for return
air installation. If humi ifier is
mounte on return uct, control must
be at least 6” upstream of humi ifier.
2. Do not locate control in the irect
path of furnace ischarge air or rafts
from open oors an win ows.
3. Do not install where operation might be
affecte by lamps, sunlight, fireplace
registers, ra iators, conceale air
ucts an pipes, or room occupants.
4. The basic rules for location of
thermostats also apply to humi ifier
controls.
8. In or er for humi ifier to turn on, the
furnace blower must be operating an
the Humi ifier Control must be calling
for humi ity. The interface between the
humi ifier an the furnace to etect
blower operation can be accomplishe
several ifferent ways. See wiring
iagrams on other si e for options. Do
not use furnace blower motor wiring to
power transformer. Damage to
equipment may result.
9. Tap into a water supply line with
the sa le valve furnishe . See
instructions on sa le valve package.
The humi ifier will function with col ,
hot, softene or unsoftene water. The
use of service hot water (140°F MAX.)
an constant blower operation will provi e
maximum evaporative capacity. Wh n
installing humidifi r on h at pump syst m,
humidifi r must b suppli d with s rvic
hot wat r.
NOTE: Th saddl valv is d sign d to b
fully op n d or clos d. Do not us it to
r gulat wat r flow.
10. Connect tubing from the sa le valve
to the inlet si e of the solenoi valve using
1⁄4” O.D. copper tubing (not furnishe ).
DOUBLE WRENCH TO PREVENT LEAKING!
(S Figur 3)
11. Drain spu is esigne to accept 1⁄2” I.D.
plastic hose (not furnishe ). Run rain line
from rain spu to floor rain. CAUTION: If
hos clamp is us d, do not ov r tight n, drain
spud could crack. Mak sur drain lin has
constant downward slop and is not kink d.
NOTE: Do not sw at or dir ctly attach m tal
drain lin to fitting. Do not us solv nt typ
adh siv wh n conn cting plastic drain lin ,
sinc damag to fitting could r sult.
12. Open sa le valve completely an turn
on furnace. Turn up humi ifier control so that
humi ifier will turn on. Allow humi ifier to
run until water is observe coming out of the
rain line. Check to see if humi ifier an
sa le valve are watertight. Check operation
to make sure that all electrical components
function properly. Set humi ifier control to
level recommen e in Owner’s Manual.
NOTE: BEFORE LEAVING THE
JOB SITE, MAKE SURE:
1. Saddl valv is fully op n.
2. All plumbing conn ctions ar
wat rtight.
3. Humidifi r functions prop rly.
4. Bypass damp r is in prop r
position.

7A. MANUAL HUMIDIFIER CONTROL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
The Manual Humi ifier Control is esigne for low voltage service to control
humi ification equipment. An increase in relative humi ity expan s the nylon ribbon
that opens the control switch to stop operation on the humi ifier. A ecrease in
relative humi ity reverses the process an closes the control switch.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. Do not att mpt to r pair or r calibrat
humidifi r control. Controls r quiring
s rvic should b r turn d to your
distributor.
2. Use humi ifier control in low voltage
(24 VAC) applications only. Install
24 VAC wiring to humi ifier control
as shown in Wiring Diagrams,
opposite si e.
3. Make sure no bare wires are expose
or insulation amage . Insulation on
wire shoul exten to hea of screws.
4. Make sure all splices are
mechanically an electrically secure.
5. To remove irt or other foreign matter
from nylon ribbon an control interior,
ust lightly with a fine, soft brush.
