ENDLESS INSTALLATION OPTIONS
READ THIS BEFORE BEGINNING REMOTE INSTALLATION
NON-COMPLIANCE WILL VOID WARRANTY
!
HM506 maximum remote hose length is 10 ft.
HM509 and HM512 maximum is 20 ft.
For best performance, mount the humidifier as
close as possible to the remote nozzle location.
Horizontal installation must have upward pitch of
at least 2 in. per ft.
Remote hose must be supported to prevent sags.
Where there are long, straight runs, 1-1/2 in. x
2-1/4 in. perforated metal angle is recommended
to provide continuous support under the hose.
Other rigid materials, such as 2x4 lumber, may also
be used to continuously support the hose.
Never support the hose by attaching it to PVC
pipe or other materials that may sag over time,
or materials that cannot support the weight of
the hose.
Where it is not possible to provide continuous
support, anchor the hose every 12 inches by
securing it to a rigid support using the support
hooks provided.
Use the provided insulated hose to sustain output
efficiency.
Never make sharp bends in the steam hose, as
this will cause kinks. Pay particular attention when
routing the steam hose around rafters or joists and
avoid sharp bends and kinks in these areas.
Attach the remote humidifier nozzle so it directs
the hose upward. Do not attempt to route the hose
through the hole in the mounting bracket.
Down sloping remote hose must have a drain with
a wetted trap installed at the lowest point. Use a
Tee that is rated for continuous use for steam.
Do not use a plastic Tee and do not use more than
one downward slope.
ALWAYS inspect the hose installation after the
humidifier has been operating for at least one hour
to confirm that there are no sags or leaks. Note
that the hose gets softer after it heats up so sags
may develop after the initial installation.
Install drain line according to the instructions on
the next page.
Install a drip pan with a wet switch under the
humidifier when installed in finished spaces.

ADDITIONAL MATERIALS REQUIRED IF…
Remote hose has a downward slope. You must use a 212°F rated Tee and P-trap.
Do not use a plastic Tee.
TrueSTEAM is using an auxiliary drain. You must install a wetted drain trap or
condensate pump rated at 212°F. Pump must have total minimum capacity of
1 gallon per minute water flow for the vertical rise of the installation.
TrueSTEAM is installed in a living space. You must install a drip pan with overflow
wet switch under the TrueSTEAM. Wire switch to TrueSTEAM according to the
wiring diagram in this document.
MATERIALS PROVIDED
