Figure 7: Water Supply and Drain Connection

All water supply and drain line connections should be installed in accordance with local
plumbing codes.

Supply water should at 30 to 80 PSIG and be between 150-750 microsiemens (Hardness
0-12 GPG). For 750-1200 microsiemens, please consult factory.

Install water shut off valve and union before humidifier to facilitate servicing.

The drain line should not end in a sink used frequently by personnel, or where plumbing
codes prohibit. Route to a floor drain or equivalent for safety reasons.

Ensure drain line is adequately sized to provide free and easy draining and that an air gap is
installed as shown. A restricted drain can cause cylinder water to over concentrate,
resulting in poor operation or result in water backing up at the air gap.
Note:

Drain Water is very hot, do not drain to public sink

Supply cold potable water (not Reverse Osmosis or Demineralized). Conductivity:
150–750 microsiemens and pressure: 30-80 PSIG.

Use material suitable for 212°F (100°C) for drain and condensate lines.
