Your Humidifier is engineered to give helpful and trouble-free humidification. For maximum efficiency the following cleaning procedures should be carried
out at the end of each heating season:
1. Turn off water supply and electrical power to humidifier.
2. Remove cover, distributor trough, evaporator pad and drain pan. Clean excessive mineral deposits from the
distributor trough, drain pan, pad rails, and humidifier cabinet. A solution of 1/2 vinegar & 1/2 water will help loosen
mineral deposits.
3. If the evaporator pad has excessive mineral deposits, replace with a new GA-23 evaporator pad. Install trough and
drain pan. Replace cover.
4. In heavy mineral areas or if the solenoid valve fails to function disconnect the 1/4” water supply line from the
solenoid valve. Carefully pull the strainer screen (P.N. GA4004) from the valve body (P.N. GA4040). Clean the
mineral deposits from all parts. If the orifice is clogged, it may be opened by inserting a small pin. Reinsert the filter
into the orifice fitting and screw the brass strainer body into the solenoid valve.
5. Reconnect the 1/4” water line to the solenoid valve if necessary. Turn on the water supply and check all points for
leakage. The operation of the unit may be checked by starting the furnace. The humidifier operates only when the
furnace blower is running or the burner circuit is energized. The humidifier is now ready for operation.
6. During the summer, turn off water supply and electrical power to humidifier. Close air damper.

This humidifier, if properly registered by the return of the warranty registration card to the manufacturer, is warranted to the consumer against defects in
materials and workmanship for a period of five years from the date of installation. Evaporator pads, water strainers or metering orifices are not covered
by this limited warranty or any other warranties. Any other defective parts will be repaired without charge except for removal, reinstallation and
transportation costs. To obtain repair service under this limited warranty, the consumer must send the defective part or the complete humidifier to the
manufacturer.

LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH THE INSTALLATION OR USE OF THIS PRODUCT, EXCEPT AS STATED IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. THE
MANUFACTURER WILL IN NO EVENT BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. Some states do not allow either

The operating principle of the humidifier is based on the most efficient
and economical means of evaporating water to the air. The humidifier
uses only 2.5 watts of electrical power during operation, less than the
smallest household light bulb. The heat necessary for evaporating water
is produced by the furnace.
The water supply to the humidifier is controlled by the electric solenoid
valve. The humidistat connected in series with the solenoid provides low
voltage control of the humidifier.
The humidistat is designed for wall
mounting in the living area or surface mounting on the return air duct.
ELECTRICAL RATING: 24 VAC / 60 Hz.
DO NOT SET RELATIVE HUMIDITY TOO HIGH DURING COLD
WEATHER.
EXCESSIVE HUMIDITY MAY CAUSE CONDENSATION ON
WINDOWS OR IN WALLS. REFER TO RECOMMENDED SETTINGS
AS DESCRIBED IN THE HUMIDISTAT OWNERS MANUAL.
Water flows through a strainer, is metered through an orifice to provide
the proper amount of water, and is supplied to the evaporator pad by the
distributor trough. Approximately 200 CFM of air is by-passed from the
warm air plenum through the humidifier and returned to the cold air
plenum. Moisture is evaporated to the air passing through the evaporator
pad.
Minerals are not blown into the air stream as occurs in atomizing
humidifiers; they are left on the evaporator pad where a high percentage
is carried off with the waste water.
When the humidifier is installed and operating, no adjustments are
necessary other than setting the control knob on the humidistat to the
desired level of humidification. Leave knob on the humidifier in "HI" or
"WINTER" position.
To turn the humidifier off, close water supply valve, switch electrical
power off and turn humidistat off. If furnace is used for summer cooling or
ventilating set air damper on "LOW" or "SUMMER".
