Operation
Overview:
Your atomizing mister type humidifier operates by dispersing a fine mist into the warm air plenum of your furnace. The
water is then evaporated and carried into the home by the furnace air flow. This humidifier is recommended for areas
where water mineral content is low. Otherwise, a fine accumulation of white dust may occur in either the ducts or liv-
ing areas. High mineral content will also clog the nozzle causing an uneven spray pattern, excessive dripping, or total
blockage of the nozzle tip. When wired properly, the humidifier will operate only when the plenum temperature rises to
the internal thermostat setting, the humidistat senses a need for humidity, and the furnace blower is in operation. The
internal thermostat controls the temperature at which the humidifier will turn on. The humidifier should activate after the
furnace blower comes on and shut off before the furnace blower turns off. If this does not occur, readjust the furnace
fan switch as required. If applicable, set the humidistat in the recommended range of 35-50% Relative Humidity for
automatic humidity control during the heating season (a lower setting may be used to control condensation on single
pane windows). Due to the operation cycle of the furnace and humidifier, it may take two to five days to reach the proper
humidification level.

NOTE:
When shutting the humdifier down for the summer months, turn off
the water and clean any mineral accumulation from the unit. Leave the water
turned off. If the furnace fan is to be used for cooling purposes, disconnect
power to the humidifier or turn the humidistat to the OFF position if applicable.
Start-up & Operation:
1. Adjust the humidistat to the ON position and turn the furnace on.
2. Adjust the house thermostat to cause the furnace to operate. The heat and blower should turn on BEFORE the
humidifier.
3. The solenoid valve will make an audible click when it operates, either on or off.
4. If necessary, adjust the furnace fan control to a lower setting to allow the blower to turn on before the humidifier
turns on and the blower turns off after the humidifier is off.
5. Readjust the humidistat to the desired setting (35-50% Relative Humidity is recommended).
6. If condensation occurs on windows, lower the humidistat setting until the condensation has disappeared.
