Humidifier

Top
quality and high capacity for maximum comfort.
Easy to install with any THERMO Pride warm air furnace.
WHY
HUMIDIFY?
Proper
humidity levels reduce annoying static electricity, dried cracked
furniture and wood trim, and wilting house plants. You'll feel more
comfortable as scratchy dry skin, throats and noses are soothed.
Properly humidified air feels warmer allowing you to turn down your
thermostat a few degrees and reduce energy costs yet still feel
comfortable.
GENERAL OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Evaporation takes place as the heated air from the
warm air furnace passes through the moisture laden evaporator pad.
The pad is wetted by water metered through a solenoid valve and
distributed over the pad by a distributor
trough
at the top of the humidifier. Water not evaporated drains from the
bottom of the humidifier carrying off troublesome minerals. Humidified
air is then returned to the heating system to enter the living area.
