INSTALLATION
WARNING
Personal Injury or Equipment Damage Can Occur.
Do not cut or drill into any air conditioning or electrical accessory.
CAUTION
• Locate the humidifier where the ambient temperature is between 32°F (0°C) and 160°F (71°C)
or property damage can occur. Do not install where freezing temperatures could occur.
• Be sure supply plenum static pressure is no greater than 0.4 in.W.C. and water pressure is no
greater than 125 psi or equipment damage can occur.
IMPORTANT
Be sure the template is level before marking to assure optimal product performance.
1. Determine the best location for the humidifier and draw a level line on the plenum. See Fig. 1 and 2.
IMPORTANT
Be sure the humidifier will be at least 3 in. (76 mm) above the furnace jacket or there will not be
enough room for the drain line. Check that there is enough room above the humidifier to remove
and install the humidifier cover. Do not install on a furnace jacket.

Fig. 3. Humidifier components.
IMPORTANT
Be sure the black mark on the end of the humidifier pad is facing up for proper operation. Check
that the water feed tube is placed in the guide slots of the humidifier housing.
8. Reinstall the humidifier pad and PerfectFlo™water tray in the humidifier housing.
9. Hook the top of the cover to the housing and secure with the thumbscrew located at the bottom of
the cover.
WIRING
WARNING
Serious Personal Injury Hazard.
Can cause electrical shock and injury from moving parts.
Disconnect power supply before installation or servicing to prevent electrical shock or equipment
damage.
This device contains a moving fan blade. Disconnect power prior to installation or servicing. Do not
operate the humidifier without the cover securely attached.
All wiring must comply with applicable local codes, ordinances and regulations.
1. Wire the humidifier solenoid valve, current sensing relay or sail switch, and humidistat.See Fig. 4, 5
and 6. Refer to humidistat installation instructions for mounting and wiring information.
IMPORTANT
If not using a current sensing relay or sail switch, the 120V humidifier plug must be energized
during blower motor cycles for proper operation.
NOTE: Select models of fan centers include humidifier taps so the current sensing relay or sail switch are
not needed.

PLUMBING SADDLE VALVE
The humidifier can use either hot or cold water that is hard or softened.
1. Use the self-piercing saddle valve (included) to tap into the water supply line at an appropriate
location.
IMPORTANT
•The saddle valve is not designed to be used to regulate water flow.The valve is either open or
closed.
•Be sure the saddle valve handle is pointing towards the ceiling when installed to prevent debris
from clogging the solenoid in-line filter.
2. Use 1/4 in. O.D. copper tubing and connect the saddle valve to the inlet side of the solenoid valve.
CAUTION
Do not use any line connected to an air conditioner or equipment damage can occur.
NOTE: Lightly clean the copper tubing ends with fine sandpaper before making any connections.
a. Place the brass compression nut over copper tubing.
b. Slide the brass ferrule over the tubing.
c. Insert the tubing into the solenoid valve fitting and support the valve while tightening the
compression nut.
NOTE: Do not over-tighten the compression nut. Moderate tightness will prevent leaking.
3. Connect 1/2 in. hose to the humidifier drain fitting and run to a suitable drain.
NOTE: Hose needs to be at a downward slope to drain correctly.
4. Open saddle valve.
CHECKOUT
1. Open saddle valve.
2. Set thermostat setpoint to 10°F above room temperature and set humidistat high.
NOTE: The furnace blower must be operating for the humidifier to work.
3. Observe water running out of the drain line to be sure humidifier is working.
4. Check for leaks.
5. Reset thermostat and humidistat to comfortable settings.
