See Table 1 for the recommendedsettings. These settings, which are based on years of research, represent a compromise between humidity levels that would be most desirable for comfort and humidity levels that are suitable for protection of your home and to avoid condensationon your windows. For example, a wintertime indoor humidity of 50% may be considered ideal for comfort, but unfortunately, it probably would result in condensation, which can cause damage to your home. Observing the recommended humidity levels on your Humidifier Control is an important safeguard. Condensation of water on the inside surface of windows in the form of fogging or frost is usually an indication of too much humidity. This same condensationcan occur in other areas in your home, possibly resulting in damage.

The control keeps track of humidifier operation time. The yellow “Change Water Panel” light flashes after a preset amount of running time has elapsed. This running time is preset by the installer based on the humidifier model and water hardness.

Refer to the Annual Maintenance section for instructions on changing the Water Panel or call your heating and air conditioning dealer for service. After the Water Panel is replaced, turn the Control knob to the “Test/Reset” position until the green “Humidifier ON” light flashes, to reset the Water Panel change timer.

TEST/RESET

The Test/Reset feature allows the humidifier operation to be checked even if there is no call for humidity. See “Check the Humidifier Operation” on page 11.
