For the Contractor: How To Install
a Skuttle Model 60-Series Steam Humidier
NOTES: This humidier must be installed by a qualied professional
contractor. Failure to comply with this requirement may nullify the
warranty.
Read all instructions before beginning installation of the humidier. Skut-
tle Manufacturing Company assumes no responsibility under warranty if the
contractor and user do not follow these printed instructions.
FOR WIRING INSTRUCTIONS AND INSTALLATION OF THE ELECTRONIC
COMPENSATING HUMIDISTAT, PLEASE SEE SEPARATE INSTRUCTIONS
ENCLOSED IN THE HUMIDIFIER CARTON.
Safety Precautions
Do not install a humidier where the surrounding temperature may exceed 1.
200°F.
CAUTION: Excessive heat will damage the humidier, possibly causing
an overow condition and water damage to the home.
Do not install a humidier where the surrounding temperature may be 32°F 2.
or colder (e.g., attics, garages, etc.).
CAUTION: Freezing water will damage the humidier and burst the sup-
ply pipe, resulting in damage to the home.
Do not cut or drill into any air conditioning components or electrical enclo-3.
sures during humidier installation.
DANGER: Electrocution is possible if you come in contact with a live
electrical wire; blindness can occur if refrigerant contacts your eyes.
When the humidier is installed in a nished basement or any area where 4.
water damage could occur, be sure to connect the humidier’s overow
provision to a suitable drain.
For above-ceiling installations, install an additional drain pan plumbed to a 5.
suitable drain.
Installation, wiring and plumbing of the humidier must comply with local 6.
codes, ordinances and regulations.

For some installations:
Duct tape14.
1/4” copper water line15.
Tubing and ttings for the overow connection16.
2 conductor low-voltage wire17.
Selecting a Location
For most installations, mount the humidier under the horizontal warm air 1.
supply duct. As an alternative, the unit can be mounted on a vertical plenum
using a fabricated transition for support. (See “Mounting the Humidier”,
pgs. 8-10.)
NOTE: Ideally, the Skuttle Steam Humidier is not intended for installation
in or on the return air duct or plenum. However, some contractors do so
without complications. If you choose to install a Skuttle Model 60 Hu-
midier under a return air duct or on a return air plenum, be aware that
moisture MUST be absorbed BEFORE entering the lter, blower, turn
or transition. Therefore, INSTALL THE HUMIDIFIER AT LEAST 4-TO-6
FEET PRIOR TO THESE DEVICES AND CONFIGURATIONS.
Select a location where the humidier can be plugged in without the use 2.
of an extension cord. (See separate manual, “Wiring Instructions for High-
Capacity Steam Humidiers”.)
Select a location that will not allow steam to condense on the system air 3.
mover, electrical components, etc.
Mount the unit on rigid metal ductwork, never on duct board or internally-4.
insulated duct.

8
Figure 1—Option A:
Duct Edge Mount
CAUTION: For all installation congurations, the mounting area must
be strong enough to support the humidier’s weight when it is full of
water (approximately 18 lbs.), and to hold the humidier in a level position
for safe, reliable operation. Otherwise, additional duct reinforcement will be
necessary.
NOTE: If the installation includes exposed insulated materials, a section of
the ductwork must be removed and replaced with rigid metal duct extending
at least 6 feet downstream from the humidier.
Mount the unit at least 4-to-6 feet after the plenum transition. Avoid sudden 5.
turns or transitions in the ductwork in the immediate area downstream from
the humidier.
Mounting the Humidier
Option A is the preferred method of
mounting because it requires the least
amount of duct reinforcement to support
the humidier and keep it level. A duct
width of at least 10 inches is necessary.
Wider ducts may need to be reinforced in
order to hold the humidier level.
DANGER: Wear safety glasses when
cutting or drilling. Do not cut or drill into
any air conditioning components or electri-
cal enclosures during installation. Electro-
cution is possible if you come in contact
with a live electrical wire; blindness can
occur if refrigerant contacts your eyes.
To install (Option A):
Place the mounting bracket (provided) 1.
on the edge of the ductwork where the
humidier is to be installed.
Use a marker to trace around the inside of the mounting bracket. Cut out 2.
the duct opening.
CAUTION: DO NOT attach the mounting bracket before the hole in the
ductwork has been cut.
Attach the mounting bracket to the ductwork with sheet metal screws. 3.
Figure 2—Mounting Bracket

Attach the L-shaped bracket to the top/front of the humidier, so that the 4.
vertical wall is toward the reservoir.
Adjust the water level. (See Nos. 7 & 8 in “Plumbing and Setting the Water 5.
Level”, pgs. 11 & 12.)
Slide the anges of the humidier reservoir into the mounting bracket until 6.
the reservoir’s front ange comes in contact with the edge of the duct.
Secure the humidier to the duct with the screws provided. 7.
Option B requires a transition to be
made, and usually needs duct reinforce-
ment to hold the humidier securely in
place.
NOTE: For this conguration, the humidi-
er is mounted on the outside of the ple-
num, rather than the inside, so as not to
restrict airow.
DANGER: Wear safety glasses when
cutting or drilling. Do not cut or drill into
any air conditioning components or electri-
cal enclosures during installation. Elec-tro-
cution is possible if you come in contact
with a live electrical wire; blindness can
occur if refrigerant contacts your eyes.
To install (Option B):
Construct a transition and attach it to 1.
the plenum. (Additional humidier sup-
port will be necessary for this congura-
tion.)
Place the mounting bracket (provided) at the base of the transition. 2.
Use a marker to trace around the inside of the mounting bracket. Cut out 3.
the duct opening.
CAUTION: DO NOT attach the mounting bracket before the hole in the
ductwork has been cut.
Attach the L-shaped bracket to the top/front of the humidier, so that the 4.
vertical wall is toward the reservoir.

Secure the humidier to the duct with the screws provided. 7.
Option C requires duct reinforcement
to hold the humidier securely in place.
DANGER: Wear safety glasses when
cutting or drilling. Do not cut or drill into
any air conditioning components or electri-
cal enclosures during installation. Electro-
cution is possible if you come in contact
with a live electrical wire; blindness can
occur if refrigerant contacts your eyes.
To install (Option C:)
Place the mounting bracket (provided) 1.
at the selected location on the bottom
of the duct.
Use a marker to trace around the inside 2.
of the mounting bracket. Cut out the
duct opening.

Plumbing and Setting the Water Level
NOTE: Use copper tubing only to plumb this humidier.
Select the nearest cold water pipe and install the saddle connector and nee-1.
dle valve (provided) by following the instructions supplied with the valve.
WARNING: Do not use any line connected to an air conditioner.
Lightly clean the tubing ends with ne sandpaper before making connec-2.
tions.
Uncoil the copper tubing and con-3.
nect one end to the saddle valve.
Use the compression ttings
found in the self-piercing saddle
valve parts bag.
Place the brass compression •
nut over the tubing, then slide
the brass ferrule over the
tubing.
Fully insert the tubing into the •
saddle valve tting and tighten
the compression nut. (Do
not over-tighten; moderate
tightness should prevent leaking.)
Thoroughly ush the supply tubing after attaching it to the saddle valve. •
This will clear the line of debris which could block water ow at the oat
valve.
Route the tubing to the humidier oat valve, keeping the tubing away from 4.
sharp edges.
Connect the remaining end of the tubing to the humidier oat valve. 5.
Open the saddle valve so that the water ows slowly and gently into the 6.
water pan.
Prior to mounting, adjust the humidier’s water level by following these in-7.
structions:
Set the humidier reservoir on a level surface. •
Allow the unit to ll until the oat valve shuts off the incoming ow of •
water. (The water should be 2-3/8” deep, plus or minus 1/8”. If it is not,
further adjustment will be necessary.)

12
Figure 7-A—Raising the
water level
Figure 7-B—Lowering the
water level
If the water level is too high, remove enough water from the reservoir to al-
8.
low the oat valve to automatically ll and shut off the water. This will verify
that your nal adjustment is correct.
Shut off the water supply and remove all water from the reservoir. 9.
Mount the humidier according to Options A, B or C, shown on pages 10.
8-10.
Check the two compression ttings—one at the saddle valve, the other at 11.
the oat valve. Stop any leakage by tightening the ttings.
Connect the humidier’s overow provision to a suitable waste drain. 12.
A standard garden hose or a 3/8” N.P.T. male tting (not supplied) can •
be attached to the overow tting.
Provide support at many points along the hose to prevent kinks—partic-•
ularly near any heat source.
Turn the water to the humidier on. The oat valve should shut the water off 13.
when the pan is lled to 2-3/8”.
Make sure the humidier is plugged into a powered outlet. 14.
Adjust the compensating humidistat according to instructions provided with 15.
the unit.
CAUTION: To prevent valve seat damage, never adjust the humidier’s
water level without supporting the oat arm. Make adjustments in small
increments.
To raise the water level, push down in the center of the oat arm (see •
Figure 7-A, below).
To lower the water level, hold the oat on the bottom of the reservoir with •
one hand and pull up on the center of the oat arm with the other hand
(see Figure 7-B, below).

How To Install the
Programmable Automatic Flushing Timer
The Humidier Automatic Flushing Timer
automatically ushes accumulated min-
eral deposits from all central-system
steam– and reservoir-type humidiers.
This enables homeowners to enjoy the
benets of healthful, humidied air with-
out the hassles of frequent maintenance
due to mineral buildup.
The ushing timer is set at the factory to
ush the humidier every two hours for a
duration of 10 seconds, using only about
1.5 gallons of water per day. (See “Re-
programming Instructions”, page 15, for
alternate settings.) This ushing reduces or eliminates servicing during the hu-
midication season, depending on the mineral content of the water.
To Install the Flushing Timer on a Steam Humidier:
Figure 8—Installation of a Pro-
grammable Automatic Flushing
Timer on a Steam Humidier
CAUTION: All plumbing
and electrical connections
must comply with relevant
codes and ordinances.

14
If the humidier has been preinstalled and needs servicing, refer to “How to 1.
Maintain a Skuttle Steam Humidier” (page 16) for instructions.
For either a new or preinstalled humidier, select a suitable mounting loca-2.
tion for the ushing timer within 3 feet of the humidier, and within 10 feet of
a properly fused electrical outlet.
Locate a suitable waste drain for disposal of ushed water. 3.
CAUTION: Drain tubing must not kink or come in contact with sharp
edges or hot surfaces. Tubing must run in a continual downhill slope
to allow proper drainage and to prevent overow.
4a. If this ushing timer was purchased as an accessory to install on a
steam humidier… remove the drain valve from the humidier and install
the 90º barbed tting (provided), as shown in Figure 8 (page 13).
4b. If this ushing timer was purchased with the steam humidier as a
complete assembly… the 90º barbed tting should already be installed on
the humidier in the proper location. (See Figure 8, page 13.)
Screw the unit to the mounting surface selected in Step #2. 5.
Cut a piece of drain tubing to reach from the humidier tting to the tting 6.
on the side of the ushing timer.
CAUTION: Drain tubing must not kink or come in contact with sharp
edges or hot surfaces. (This caution applies to Step #7, as well.)
Cut a second piece of tubing to reach from the bottom tting on the ushing 7.
timer to the drain. (See Step #3.)
Connect tubing with clamps or ttings suitable for your installation. 8.
Return the steam humidier to its normal operating mode. Refer to pages 9.
11 & 12 to properly set the water level.
Plug the ushing timer into the designated outlet. (See Step #2.) 10.
Check all ttings for leaks. Tighten as necessary. 11.
Test the ushing timer for proper operation. 12.
Press and release the MANUAL button. A.
Wait 10 to 30 seconds* until the ushing noise stops, indicating that the B.
ushing cycle is complete.
*The number of seconds will vary depending upon how the unit is pro-
grammed. (See “Reprogramming Instructions”, page 15.)

15
To Reprogram the Automatic Flushing Timer:
The ushing timer is set at the factory to ush the humidier every two hours
for a duration of 10 seconds, using approximately 1.5 gallons of water per day.
Although the two-hour intervals between ushes may not be altered, the dura-
tion may be lengthened to either 20 or 30 seconds per ush.
Unplug the ushing timer from the electrical outlet. 1.
Take off the back cover plate by removing the three screws closest to the 2.
moutning anges.
Inside, on the circuit board, locate the red switch block which contains two 3.
switches, numbered 1 and 2.
NOTE: The switches are pre-set in the 10-second mode, with
the #1 switch in the ON position, and the #2 switch in the OFF
position, as shown at right.
To reprogram the ushing timer to 20-second 4.
ushes every 2 hours, move the #1 switch to the OFF
position, and the #2 switch to the ON position, as shown
at left. At this setting, the automatic ushing timer will use
approximately 3 gallons of water per day.
To reprogram the ushing timer to 30-second ushes every 5.
2 hours, move both switches to the OFF position, as shown at
right. At this setting, the automatic ushing timer will use ap-
proximately 4.5 gallons of water per day.
Reposition the back cover plate on the ushing timer and secure it with the 6.
three screws.
Plug the ushing timer back into the wall outlet. Make sure it is functioning 7.
properly with the humidier. (See Step #12, page 14.)
NOTE: Lengthening the ushing duration will help keep the humidier
cleaner. However, it may also cause undesirable drain noise.

16
How To Maintain
a Skuttle Steam Humidier
Because the Skuttle Steam Humidier is designed to emit mineral-free moisture
into the air, the unit should be cleaned and serviced every two-to-four months
during the humidication season. Harder water, colder weather and/or higher
humidistat settings will increase the frequency of cleaning and service.
NOTE: Some 60-series units (Models F60-1 and F60-2) are equipped with a
Skuttle Automatic Flushing Timer (see page 22), which can reduce maintenance
signicantly. However, it is still wise for the homeowner to check the humidier
for mineral buildup every two months or so.
To perform routine maintenance tasks, follow these instructions:
WARNING: Do not touch the humidier when the operation indicator
light is on. Always unplug the unit and allow it to cool prior to service or
inspection.
Unplug the humidier and fan control; disconnect the humidistat wires from 1.
the external screw terminals.
Turn off the water supply and disconnect the supply tubing at the oat valve. 2.
Disconnect the overow hose at the humidier.
Allow water in the humidier to cool before continuing. 3.
WARNING: Scalding is possible if water in the humidier reservoir
has not been allowed to cool.
4a. For steam humidier Models 60-1 or 60-2 (without an automatic ushing
timer), turn the petcock (drain tting) counterclockwise (Q) and drain water
from the humidier into a bucket.
4b. For steam humidier Models F60-1 and F60-2, use the automatic ush-
ing timer to drain the unit by following these instructions:
Press and release the MANUAL button on the ushing timer. A.
Wait 10 to 30 seconds until the ushing noise stops, indicating that the B.
ushing cycle is complete. (The number of seconds will vary depend-
ing upon how the timer is programmed.)
Repeat Steps A and B until the humidier is drained. C.
Remove the humidier from its mounting. 5.
Flush loose minerals from the reservoir with water, then gently rub miner-6.
