GETTING STARTED Important Installation Requirements Failure to comply with these requirements will result in voided warranty, improper installation, and service callbacks. Personal Safety • Wear safety glasses while installing TrueSTEAM. • Do not cut into any air conditioning or electrical line. • Follow professional safety standards and all local regulations. Mounting Location • Mount TrueSTEAM in a level position to avoid water damage or heating element failure. • Install TrueSTEAM on the supply duct. Use the Remote Mounting Kit if duct mounting is not possible. • Do not install TrueSTEAM where the ambient temperature is lower than 34°F (1.1°C) or higher than 104°F (40°C). • Mounting area must be strong enough to support TrueSTEAM's weight when full of water (up to 15 lbs.). • Choose a location that is well ventilated. Do not install TrueSTEAM in completely enclosed spaces, such as a cabinet or unventilated closet. • Allow at least 1 foot clearance to ventilation holes in the TrueSTEAM cover. Do not cover the holes. Covering them can increase the temperature inside TrueSTEAM and shorten its life. • Do not mount directly to duct board. The remote mount nozzle attachment is allowed only with a Honeywell duct board adapter kit. See "Appendix B: Parts List" on page 59. • If used near a pool or spa, make sure TrueSTEAM can not fall into the water or be splashed. Also, ensure TrueSTEAM is plugged into a ground fault interrupted (GFI) outlet. Duct Nozzle • Do not install the duct nozzle into a supply duct with static pressure exceeding 0.5 in. w.c. • Do not install the duct nozzle through wooden sidewalls (e.g., floor joist). • If the duct has exposed insulation on the interior, be sure the nozzle extends beyond the insulation. Clear away excess insulation at the insertion point, or replace a section of insulated duct (approximately 6 in. x 6 in.) with rigid, non-insulated sheet metal. • Allow at least 4 in. clearance between nozzle outlet and any interior duct to avoid water condensation. • Mount TrueSTEAM where the nozzle outlet has a minimum 24 in. of downstream open air space. Water Drainage • Consult local plumbing codes for drain size, material, and maximum temperature allowed. TrueSTEAM Humidification System 69-2285-01 9
