Humidifier should be installed so that if the humidifier or any other connections should leak, the resulting flow of water will not cause damage. Under no condition is Sears and the manu- facturer to be held liable for any water damage in connection with this humidifier. Never install humidifier in atticor crawl space where freezing may occur or leaking will cause water damage.

if holes between supply air plenum and return air plenum must be located more than 36 inches apart (Fig. 1), standard 6 inch round pipe and fittings (not supplied) may be used, or an 8 foot section of flexible tube No. 281152-05 may be purchased through the Soars parts department. Materials needed for this type installation are available at Sears.
