3. Introduction
The benefits of a properly humidified environment (35-55%
Relative Humidity) are many. They include both personal com-
fort as well as the preservation of furniture, draperies, car
-
pets, wooden floors and cabinets, paintings, pianos, etc. Your
home can be more comfortable at a lower temperature (i.e.:
68° F) at 30-40% Relative Humidity (RH) than at 71° to 72° F
without controlled humidity. Since every degree of tempera
-
ture setback represents about 3% of your heating costs, this
can represent a significant annual savings. During the heat-
ing season, cold air infiltrates the home and must be heated.
When heated, this air dries out and greatly increases its
capacity to hold more moisture. By using a humidifier, a
source of water is provided to satisfy this increased mois
-
ture holding capacity, rather than having it drawn from oc
-
cupants and the surrounding furnishings in the home.

TM
centrifugal atomizing humidifier oper-
ates on the principles of atomization and evaporation. A rotating
impeller pulls water from a small reservoir and slings it against
a periphery of impaction posts inside the unit. The force of the
impact causes the water to break into tiny droplets which are
subsequently discharged from the unit into the air. Once the
atomized water has exited the unit, it evaporates and raises the
relative humidity of the air.
If applicable, set the humidistat in the recommended range of
30-40% relative humidity for automatic humidity control during
the heating season. A lower setting may be necessary to pre-
vent condensation on windows. If needed, an electronic humidi
-
stat is available to automatically reset the humidity setpoint as
the outside air temperature changes.
During the first heating season, check the reservoir for mineral
build-up periodically to establish a cleaning schedule. Clean the
unit at the end of each heating season, or whenever mineral de
-
posits appear to be impeding the performance of the humidifier.
When shutting the humidifier down for the summer months, start
by cleaning and mineral accumulation from the unit. Turn the
water off to the unit and dry any remaining water from the reser
