Installation | 10
Location

Mount on a suitable wall or vertical surface. Do not sit the unit on the floor to allow
clearances required for plumbing and electrical connections.

Clearance dimensions shown are for reference only and are the minimum required for
maintenance of the humidifier. Consult local and national codes before final location
and installation. Nortec does not accept responsibility for installation code violations.

Install only in areas with ambient temperatures between 41 and 104ºF (5 and 40ºC),
and relative humidity between 5 and 95% (non-condensing).

When possible, install the humidifier below the steam distributor. If mounted above the
steam distributor, take care to provide proper steam line routing and proper condensate
traps.

DO NOT locate the humidifier any further than absolutely necessary from the steam
distributor location as net output will be reduced as a result of heat loss through the
steam line.

When possible, mount the humidifier at a height convenient for servicing.
