INSTALLATION

INSTALLING THE VAPOR PAD  (Shown at Right)

1.  Slide the pad and frame into the bottom part of the humidifier.
2.  Push the pad against the back opening of the humidifier until it locks (snaps)

into place with the pad retainer.

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY TUBING TO THE WATER HAMMER 

ABSORBER AND VALVE (Shown Below)

1.  Install the water supply tubing on the other side of the rubber hose (a compression fitting receives the

water supply hose).

2.  Slip the brass compression nut onto the plastic supply tube, then the nylon sleeve with its most tapered end towards the end of the tube.
3.  Push the supply tube fully into the brass compression fitting.  Tighten the brass compression nut using the double wrench method in order

to apply the torque on the fitting only.

Lock the Pad 

In Place

INSTALLING THE QUICK-CONNECT VALVE

Note:  The water supply can be taken from the nearest suitable cold, hot, softened or unsoftened water line.  The use of service hot water 
(140°F / 6°C Max) increases output.
1.  Cut the tubing and pipe to desired length, making sure cuts are square and all burrs are removed.
2.  Push the fitting onto the end of the pipe.  The fitting will grip before it seals.
3.  Ensure that the tubing / pipe is pushed into the fitting until the end is fully seated into the internal tube stop.

HOW THE HSA055 PULSE CONTROLLER WORKS

The HSA055 pulse controller works by turning the water ON for 4 seconds, then turning it OFF for 30 seconds.  This fixed setting reduces 

excess water that may flow down the drain without reducing humidity output.   

INSTALLING THE ELECTRONIC CONTROLLER:   

The HSA055 is factory set at NO TEMP (TEST), with settings for HIGH TEMP and LOW TEMP.  

1.

The NO TEMP (TEST) setting is used when the humidifier is supplied power from the furnace.  The unit will run as long as there is power

 

AND the humidistat is calling for more humidity.

2.

The LOW TEMP setting is used for furnaces that generate less heat, such as those with a heat pump.  The unit may operate for a short

 

while after the furnace has stopped due to residual heat in the duct.

3.

The HIGH TEMP setting is used for furnaces that generate more heat, typically oil or gas furnaces.  You may have to try both settings to

 

see which one is right for you.

4.

To choose the setting on the controller, set the dip-switches, as shown on the controller.  For HIGH and LOW settings the controller must

 

be installed on the warm air duct with two screws (#8 x 

3

/

4

").  There are two lights on the controller:  the green LED means there is

 

power to the controller and the blue LED cycles on as the valve opens.  When switched ON by the humidistat, the controller opens the

 

electric valve for approximately 4 seconds and then closes the valve for another 30, and so on.  Please use the template to drill the 3

 

holes.
