7. Lift the humidifier side out of the right hand position, turn the part and position it on the
other side of the humidifier (Figure 12).
Figure 12
8. Use the two screws removed in step 3 to secure the humidifier side in the left hand side.
STEP #2: MOUNTING THE HUMIDIFIER ON THE DUCT
If you have not already done so, remove the humidifier cover, which is secured in place with
a 10-24 plastic thumb screw at the bottom of the cover. Tilt the cover away from the body
slightly (approx. ½") and then lift up the cover to free the hooks at the top of the unit. Remove
all loose components packaged inside and any packaging. With a firm pull, disconnect the
water tube from the water nozzle and remove the evaporator pad assembly by sliding it toward
the top of the humidifier, then lifting it out (Figure 8). The humidifier comes with a mounting
template. Ensure the cabinet is installed level for proper operation.
Before mounting the Model 6000 humidifier cabinet onto the duct furnace duct, the humidistat
sensor, located at the end of the wire exiting from the "T" shaped slot on the back of the
humidifier, must be secured in place. This is done be gently tucking the wire into the "T" slot,
hooking the larger tab on the sensor housing into the top of the "T" slot and firmly bringing
down the sensor housing until the smaller tabs on the sensor housing snap into the sides of the
"T" slot (Figure 13).

1. Use adhesive tape to affix the template onto the duct in the selected location. Use the level
line to the template and a level to ensure the cabinet will be level.
2. Drill the four marked cabinet-mounting holes on the template using a
3. Using a / " drill bit (not supplied) drill a hole inside the rectangle marked "HUMIDIFIER CUT OUT".

marked on the template using tin snips (not supplied). Cut on the outside of the line to
ensure a proper fit.
5. Mount the humidifier cabinet on the duct with 4 of the screws from the installation package.
Level the humidifier before tightening the screws (Figure 14).

6. Install the evaporator pad assembly by hooking the slanted tabs on the evaporator pad
frame onto the tabs on the back of the humidifier cabinet. MAKE SURE THE OPEN END OF
THE NOZZLE IS FACING YOU.
7. Firmly insert the water tube into the nozzle.
STEP #3: MOUNTING THE BYPASS COLLAR AND DAMPER
The humidifier comes with a collar and damper mounting template. If possible ensure that the
bypass collar will be level to the humidifier duct connection. Try to keep the bypass collar within
30" of the humidifier.

1. Use adhesive tape to affix the bypass template onto the duct in the selected area.
2. Drill three marked bypass collar mounting holes on the template using a

point cut out the Collar Cut Out area marked on
the template using tin snips (not supplied).
5. Mount the bypass collar and damper using the
remaining three screws from the installation
package. The air damper should be mounted in
the open position. The top screw secures the
damper (Figure 15).
6. Slide one of the 6" spring clamps supplied
over one end of the bypass tube. Slide this
same end of the bypass tube over the flange of
the collar and secure it with the spring clamp.
7. Slide the other 6" spring clamp over the other end of the bypass tube. Slide this end of the
bypass tube onto the humidifier and secure it with the spring clamp.
8. Ensure the bypass is pulled tight and that any ripples are kept to a minimum and no sagging
is occurring. Cut any excess bypass tube off if necessary using tin snips (not supplied).
INSTALLATION TIP: If replacing an existing humidifier which has been installed on your furnace
you may be able to use the existing cut-outs, however replace the components, bypass collar
and damper and bypass tubing. The majority of furnace humidifiers use 6" ducting for bypass.
The cutout for the humidifier will more than likely be different. If replacing a drum style the
cutout will not be big enough, and if replacing an old flow through you may have to first install
a separate metal plate (not supplied) to cover the existing hole as it may be too big. Before you
mount the separate metal plate (not supplied) attach the humidifier cabinet template to it and
drill all necessary holes and make the required cutouts. Keep in mind the points listed above
about length and level of ducting; it maybe best to cover all existing holes and start fresh.
