- 1 - Thank you for your recent Aprilaire ® Humidifier purchase. We sincerely appreciate your business and are pleased to add your name to our growing list of customers. With this purchase, you have invested in the highest quality equipment currently available.
- 2 - With your purchase of a humidification system, you have invested in a humidifier that operates on the evaporative principle – nature’s own way of adding moisture – and will provide the proper relative humidity all during the heating season.
- 3 - Capacity is high because an average home (10,000 cu. ft.) requires the addition of approximately 9 gallons of water per day to maintain 35% relative humidity when the outside temperature is 20°. The smallest Aprilaire Humidifier under most operating conditions, has this humidifying capacity.
TABLE 1 – Operation Guide - 4 - There are two possible modes of operation of your Aprilaire Humidifier Control - Automatic and Manual. An explanation of both follows: Automatic Mode: (Manual Mode-see pg 6) Your Humidifier Control is installed in the cold air return.
- 5 - Your Aprilaire Automatic Humidifier, is a high precision system that will accurately maintain the relative humidity in your home. For every 1° change in outdoor temperature, the control will automatically adjust the indoor relative humidity (RH) by 1 / 2 %.
TABLE 3 – Outdoor-Indoor Relative Humidity - 6 - Manual Mode: (Automatic Mode – see pg 4) Your Aprilaire Humidifier is controlled by a Humidifier Control installed either in the living area or in the cold air return. It is important to anticipate a drop in outdoor temperature and reduce the setting accordingly to avoid excessive condensation.
- 7 - V . EFFECT OF W A TER CHARACTERISTICS Your humidifier will operate effectively using either hot, cold, hard or mechanically softened water. Whether to use available tap water, even though it may be quite hard, or chemically softened water, is a common concern to homeowners when installing a humidifier.
