|
||||||||
| EVAPORATIVE PRINCIPLE GENERALAire humidifers are 100% evaporative, adding moisture in the form of water vapor only. They are clean operating. The nuisance of airborne water droplets or mineral dust is avoided. | Forced warm air heating systems create a pressure differential that diverts some heated air to the humidifier through a bypass duct. There, the warm air absorbs moisture from a water-soaked evaporator pad and then rejoins the primary warm air stream for distribution throughout the living area. A solenoid valve and uniquely designed distribution tray meter and disperse water uniformly across the evaporator pad. Unevaporated water drains from the unit. | ||||||||
| EVAPORATIVE MEDIA | 1099-20 Evaporator Pad. Designed for high output with minimal hard water scale accumulation. UL listed. | ||||||||
| WATER SUPPLY | Dependable stainless steel solenoid valve with monel wire mesh filter that protects the precision machined Teflon flow-control orifice. Saddle valve supplied. Use 1/4" copper tubing. | ||||||||
| DRAIN CONNECTION | High capacity 5/8" drain and hose prevents clogging. Includes 15' vinyl hose except recircating models. | ||||||||
