The Electrode Steam uses 120V or 240V, which can cause death or serious injury. Take precautions when 
service is being preformed on the Electrode Steam or when removing the water tank or cover. If in doubt, 
turn off the breaker which is operating the Electrode Steam and disconnect HVAC equipment power before 
servicing.

Improper installation or misuse can cause death, blindness, and water damage to home. Be sure you know 
how to turn the Electrode Steam off, and how to drain the water tank safely.

CAUTION: Steam Condensation and Freezing Water Hazard.
Be sure the Electrode Steam Humidifier is located in a conditioned space, as well as having proper 
condensate and drain line locations. Improper installation can result in water damage to home.

Make sure you read and understand the following safety hazards before installing, using, or working 
with the Electrode Steam:

• 

Do not direct the steam nozzle at people.

• 

Water inside cylinder can be very hot. Read the warning label on the Electrode Steam and make sure
