About Your Skuttle Humidifier
Principle of Operation
Your Skuttle Humidifier uses the same method of evaporation you observe in nature after a summer shower. Mother Nature’s technique is simple: warm air passes over a thin layer of water spread over a broad surface, causing the water to evaporate and the humidity level to rise. Your humidifier creates the same natural response with an evaporator pad, which dispenses water evenly in front of a warm air stream.
You’ll notice that the evaporator pad has many holes and connecting strands. These significantly increase the area from which water can evaporate. This warm air evaporative process, intensified by the warm air from your furnace, is what makes your humidifier perform efficiently.
How Your Humidifier Works
The system is controlled by a humidistat that monitors the relative humidity (RH) in your home and activates or deactivates the humidifier accordingly. Water evaporated from the humidifier leaves behind all its impurities (e.g., calcium, iron, lime, bacteria, etc.), thus creating
a purified vapor that doesn’t pollute your indoor air. As a result, your home will be freer from these contaminants, and your family will almost certainly be healthier and more comfortable.
Models 2000, 2001, 2100 and 2101. When your home’s air is dryer than the selected level of humidity, the humidistat activates the low- voltage solenoid in your humidifier, allowing water to flow across the unit’s media. Warm, dry air is then forced through the humidifier cabinet by the furnace blower. As the warm air evaporates the water, the resulting moist (or humidified) air is circulated throughout your home by the heating system.
