Physical installation
Final installation steps for all mounting locations
•
Install the saddle valve on the nearest cold water supply
pipe (see the instructions on the package). If applicable,
connect the saddle valve upstream of any type of water
softener.
•
After the saddle valve has been installed and 1/4” copper
tubing fitted to the valve, but before attaching the copper
tubing to the float and valve assembly, turn the saddle valve
to the open position and discharge the water into a bucket
or pan. This will allow the water to void the line of any
debris that may have accumulated during the installation
process.
•
Attach the 1/4” copper tubing to the float and valve
assembly with the ferrule and compression nut (provided).
Caution: The float and valve assembly must not turn when
tightening the copper tubing compression fittings to the
humidifier water reservoir pan fitting.
•
Turn the water supply on at the saddle valve.
•
Check the water level in the water reservoir pan to ensure
it is 1-1 1/2” deep.
IMPORTANT:
In installations where accidental overflow could cause water
damage, connect a drain hose from the humidifier water
reservoir pan overflow tube to a drain. Do NOT use a soldered
joint because the overflow tube will become heated and warp
the water reservoir pan.
