IMPORTANT!

Be sure User’s Information Guide

containing instructions for operation and warranty information is
given to owner in order to avoid unnecessary calls. Warranty is
void unless humidifier is installed by qualified heating and air
conditioning contractor due to possible misapplication of product.

1.

Remove front cover by pressing center

tabs on top and bottom of the cover (1) and
base (2). Pull feed tube (3) out of the water
distribution tray (4). Tip the evaporative
assembly forward and lift it out 
of the humidifier. 

(See Figure 1)

2.

The humidifier comes assembled for left

side discharge. If converting to right side
discharge, the base can be rotated so round
collar is facing to the right. 

S

wap the location

of the hole plug (10) and drain spud (9) if using
a right side discharge. To remove the cap,
push and twist from inside the housing while
lifting the cap up slightly on the outside. To
remove the drain spud, twist and push from 
the outside of the base.

3.

Using a level, position this template at

least 3 inches above the furnace housing or
cooling coil, if applicable, for clearance of
the drain line. Trace around template edges.
Remove the template and accurately cut the

being careful 

to avoid injury from sharp edges.

4.

Place the humidifier into the plenum

opening, install six sheet metal mounting
screws (not furnished) at the top and sides 
of the humidifier interior.

5.

Install a 6” collar in a convenient location

on the opposite plenum. Attach a 90° elbow
and measure the length of 6” round duct
required to make the connection. The design
of the humidifier collar provides a solid
connection with the bypass duct through the
use of inside support ribs and pre-formed
holes for sheet metal screws. 

S

lip the duct

inside the collar of the humidifier, up to the
support ribs. Using the pre-formed holes at
the top and bottom of the humidifier collar,
secure the duct to the humidifier collar with
two sheet metal mounting screws (not
furnished). 

S

upport bypass ducts longer than

4 feet to prevent sagging.

6.

Reinstall the evaporative assembly back

into the base, with the bottom of the scale
control insert (6) sitting firmly in the inside of
the drain spud (9). Push the feed tube back
into the water distribution tray. 

(See Figure

2)

Put the front cover back on. If the

nameplate (11) is upside down, remove it
and rotate the nameplate so it is right side
up, and snap back into place. Turn damper

return installation. If humidifier is
mounted on return, Humidifier

C

ontrol must be at least 6” upstream

of humidifier.

2. Do not locate

ontrol in the direct

path of furnace discharge air or
drafts from open doors and windows.

3. Do not install where operation might

be affected by lamps, sunlight,
fireplace registers, radiators,
concealed air ducts and pipes, or
room occupants.

4. The basic rules for location of

thermostats also apply to humidifier
controls.

The transformer is designed to be mounted on
a junction box. 

S

ee furnace Installer’s Guide

for wiring recommendations. 

NOTE: For gas

furnaces without humidifier accessory
terminals providing 120 VAC, use the Current
Sensing Relay (BAYRLY10ASENSA).

9.

Tap into the top or side (not bottom) of the

water supply line with the saddle valve
furnished. 

S

package. The humidifier will function with

cold, hot, softened or unsoftened water. The
use of service hot water (140°F

constant blower operation will provide
maximum evaporative capacity. 

NOTE: The saddle valve is designed to be
fully opened or closed. Do not use it to
regulate water flow.

sure drain line has continuous slope.
NOTE: Do not sweat or directly attach
metal drain line to fitting. Do not use
solvent type adhesive when connecting
plastic drain line, since damage to fitting
could result.

MANUAL HUMIDIFIER CONTROL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

The 

M

anual Humidifier 

C

ontrol is designed for low voltage service to control

humidification equipment. An increase in relative humidity expands the nylon ribbon
which opens the control switch to stop operation of the humidifier. A decrease
in relative humidity reverses the process and closes the control switch.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

1. 

Do not attempt to repair or
recalibrate Humidifier Control.
Humidifier Controls requiring 
service should be returned to 
your distributor.

2. Use humidifier control in low voltage

(24 VA

C

) applications only. Install 

24 VA

C

 wiring to humidifier control 

as shown in Wiring Diagram,
opposite side.

3. 

M

ake sure no bare wires are

exposed or insulation damaged.
Insulation on wire should extend 
to head of screws.

4. 

M

ake sure all splices are

mechanically and electrically secure.

5. To remove dirt or other foreign matter

from nylon ribbon and control interior,
dust lightly with a fine, soft brush.
