PERIODIC PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Periodic inspection and preventative maintenance of your total heating system is important for efficient and safe operation. Your heating contractor can service your humidifier at the same time he services the HVAC system.
All models have a distribution tray above the Water Panel, which should be inspected annually and cleaned of excess mineral deposits. Older models have a granular coating in the distribution tray. Do not scrape the granuals out of the tray. Newer models have a fabric liner in the distribution tray.
