OPTIONAL SETTING # 1 (FIG. 26.)
Humidifier ON : A temperature rise of 4°C
in one minute and a temperature greater
than 30°C
Humidifier OFF: A temperature drop of
2°C in one minute and a temperature less
than 35°C
• This setting will be useful when you find that
the humidifier is shutting off too early or if the
humidifier is cycling off in the middle of a
furnace cycle. If your furnace is multi-speed (the furnace fan will
change speed during the heating cycle.) or if you have a high-
efficiency furnace, where the furnace burner will cycle ON and
OFF during the heating cycle in order to save energy.
OPTIONAL SETTING # 2 (FIG. 27.)
Humidifier ON : A temperature rise of 4°C
in one minute and a temperature greater
than 30°C
Humidifier OFF: A temperature drop of
2°C in one minute and a temperature less
than 55°C
• This setting will be useful when you find
the humidifier is not turning off when your
furnace has cycled off. Typically this will
occur because the furnace’s cool down cycle is short and the
furnace is shutting off when there is still hot air circulating through
the ducts. As well this will be seen when the furnace is located in
an enclosed space and as a result the ambient temperature is high.
OPTIONAL SETTING # 3 (FIG. 28.)
Humidifier ON : A temperature rise of 4°C
in one minute and a temperature greater
than 30°C
Humidifier OFF: A temperature drop of
2°C in one minute and a temperature less
than 65°C
• This setting will be used when option # 2
(55°C off temp) does not work. You will find
this when a furnace does not have a cool
down cycle at all, on older model furnaces. This could be
occurring when the furnace is older and has short off cycles or if
the furnace is located in a tight enclosed space and the ambient
temperature is very high.
• OPERATING TIP: Depending on the type of furnace and
installation, you may notice that after the humidifier has
shut off and the furnace shuts off the humidifier will turn
back on. This is occurring because the control is sensing
residual heat from the heat exchanger after the furnace has
shut off. If you are experiencing this you should change the
control setting until the problem is resolved. The
temperature at which your furnace shuts off is too close to
the control’s OFF temperature. It may be beneficial to have
the control set to the higher OFF temperature (55°C or
65°C). However it is important to note ONLY CHANGE
THE CONTROL SETTING IF NECESSARY.
REDUNDANT SAFETY CIRCUIT SETTING –
PRESSURE SWITCH CONTROL (NOT SUPPLIED) (FIG. 29)
Humidifier ON: When pressure switch
senses air-flow in the furnace duct
Humidifier OFF: When pressure switch
senses no air-flow in the duct.
• This setting can be used if for some reason
the above 4 different control setting fail to
shut off the humidifier. This is more than
likely occurring as a result of a non-standard
heating system, some sort of supplement
heating, improper humidifier installation, improper furnace
operation, or for some other unforeseen circumstance. This
option may also be used if for some reason the humidifier will not
turn on, this could be occurring because the furnace is not
providing enough heat or it is not providing the required
temperature rise fast enough. All four of the above control setting
have the same ON temperature requirements. This is ensuring an
efficient use of water as there is a minimum air temperature to
efficiently evaporate water. As well if for some reason you wish to
bypass the temperature feature and have the humidifier operate
when fan operates you may choose this option. This option
requires the purchase and installation of a separate pressure
switch (fig 30). Installation instructions for the pressure switch are
included with the kit.
