Mounting The Humidifier (Options A-C) - Skuttle Indoor Air Quality Products 60 Serie Instructions D'installation

caution: For all installation configurations, the mounting area must
be strong enough to support the humidifier's weight when it is full of
water (approximately 18 lbs.), and to hold the humidifier in a level position
for safe, reliable operation. Otherwise, additional duct reinforcement will be
necessary.
NOTE: If the installation includes exposed insulated materials, a section of
the ductwork must be removed and replaced with rigid metal duct extending
at least 6 feet downstream from the humidifier.
5.
Mount the unit at least 4-to-6 feet after the plenum transition. Avoid sudden
turns or transitions in the ductwork in the immediate area downstream from
the humidifier.

2.
Use a marker to trace around the inside of the mounting bracket. Cut out
the duct opening.
CAuTION: DO NOT attach the mounting bracket before the hole in the
ductwork has been cut.
3.
Attach the mounting bracket to the ductwork with sheet metal screws.
Option A is the preferred method of
mounting because it requires the least
amount of duct reinforcement to support
the humidifier and keep it level. A duct
width of at least 10 inches is necessary.
Wider ducts may need to be reinforced in
order to hold the humidifier level.
dANgER: Wear safety glasses when
cutting or drilling. Do not cut or drill into
any air conditioning components or electri-
cal enclosures during installation. Electro-
cution is possible if you come in contact
with a live electrical wire; blindness can
occur if refrigerant contacts your eyes.
To install (Option A):
1.
Place the mounting bracket (provided)
on the edge of the ductwork where the
humidifier is to be installed.
