3.DRAINS - It is still necessary to run an overflow drain line from the humidifier to a suitable drain. Now, it is also required to run an additional drain line from the new automatic drain valve to a suitable drain.
The new “S” series humidifiers have an automatic drain valve which will drain the tank every 12 hours, to minimize chemical buildup inside the tank. The water is allowed to cool down to 140 degrees F. before the water is drained out.
The humidifier drains by gravity only, so it must be mounted at a sufficient height to allow for proper drainage. DO NOT route the drain hoses above the level of the humidifier, and watch for kinks or cuts in the hoses.
If you have a basement installation and require draining into a condensate pump, we recommend a Beckett Model # CU451ULHT or CU551ULHT. These pumps are rated for high temperature water and have built in check valves.
4.WATER - The frequency which the water fill solenoid on the new steam unit will activate can exceed the older model. This more frequent filling of the tank may be noticeable in the form of water hammer noise or spikes in the water line. Install an optional water hammer arrester
