MODEL SW-2
Your humidifier has been designed and engineered to
give, with proper care, many years of trouble free
service. Therefore, if this unit ceases to operate
properly, we suggest you contact your local dealer. If
we,
at Humidity Source, can be of any assistance to
you,
please feel free to write, call or e-mail.
IMPORTANT
This space type humidifier
is
designed so that it may
be shelf mounted. The shelf should be at least 18"
(45.7cm) below the ceiling and 6 feet (1.8m) above
floor. The directional vapor dome should be positioned
to diffuse moisture without striking any obstructions
closer than six feet and maintain 24" minimum between
each side ofthe humidifier and any wall or obstruction.
PROCEDURE
Run a water supply line using 1/4" o.d. copper or
plastic tubing or 1/8" pipe. Keep the line to the rear of
the unit to avoid creating
an
obstruction.
Flush water feed lines before making final connection
to avoid having cutting oil, pipe scale, or chips which
may clog the float valve.
Turn
on
water valve and adjust water level to 1/2"
below the overflow connection
by
adjusting the thumb
screw as shown
in
Figure
1.
Adjustment
is
easily made using the adjusting thumb
screw for higher or lowerwater level as illustrated.
SERVICE & REPAIR
Should this humidifier need service or repair some time
in
the future, return only atomizing unit direct to the
factory.
CARE OF THE MACHINE
Due to air washing while the humidifier is
in
operation,
a deposit of dirt and dust may settle
in
the bottom
of
the water reservoir and screen, and it is recommended
that both be cleaned regularly.
