Steam lines must be installed so that no restriction can produce backpressure in
the humidifier. Failure to follow installation instructions will result in improper

Regardless of selecting On/Off or modulating control method, NORTEC humidifiers
must have a closed circuit across the On/Off security loop control terminal to
operate. NORTEC highly recommends the use of a high limit humidistat and an air
proving switch in series for this function.
