Start-Up 

IMPORTANT WARNINGS: 

1.

 

Before starting, check that the humidifier is in perfect condition, that there are no water leaks and that the electrical parts are dry; 

2.

 

Do not connect power if the humidifier is damaged or even partially wet! 

 
When installation is completed, flush the supply pipe for around 10 minutes by piping water directly into the drain, without sending it into the humidifier; 

this will eliminate any scale or residues that may cause foam when boiling.

Before starting the humidifier, the following should be checked: 
 

 Water is connected, the line has been flushed, and external valves are open. 
 Drain is connected, run to an open drain, and has a trap under the unit. 
 Electricity is connected in accordance with instructions, local codes and data labels in the unit. 
 The power fuses are installed and intact. 
 All control wiring is done and tested. 
 Airflow switch is wired to open on air flow loss. 
 Hi-limit humidistat is wired to open on humidity rise above set point. 
 Unit wires have been checked to make sure they and all connectors are tight from shipping. 
 The steam hose(s) are run correctly with no sags or kinks and sloped properly according to the manual. 
 Condensate hoses are run correctly with no sags or kinks and sloped properly according to the manual.
