ACTIVE HUMIDITY OPTION OVERVIEW
Use of the Active Humidity Option
Humidity may fluctuate in the controlled room. The Active Humidity Option stabilizes the environment by adding
moisture when the relative humidity in the controlled room is becoming low. Using a humidistat and a water source,
the Active Humidity Option is able to regulate and establish a humid environment suitable for wine storage.
Note:
The target humidity for most controlled rooms is between 50-70%.
General Active Humidity Option Recommendations
•
Water source needs to have at least 40 psi.
•
Water tubbing size: 1/4” O.D
•
Water source should be tested for content and characteristics.
•
In areas that are known to have hard water, the use of a Water-Softener System is required.
Note:
Failure to install a Water-Softener or a Filtration system will allow an
excessive particle residue buildup and may lead to system failure.
•
Even if the area is not known to have hard water, the use of a Filtration System (Particle Filter) is required.
•
Use a Self-Piercing Saddle Valve as a simple connection to a water source.
•
Clean or replace the Misting Nozzle every 12 months.
