3. INSTALLATION
3.1 POSITIONING
The 5500 Steam Humidifier has been designed for wall
mounting and since it is an electrode steam humidifier,
should be placed close to the point where the steam will be
ducted to minimize the steam hose length (and the amount
of condensate).
IMPORTANT:
Certain minimum clearances must be
maintained around the unit for safety and maintenance.
(See Fig. 3.a. and Table 3.a)
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT introduce steam into duct that has
interior insulation.
