How to Clean Aprilaire Humidifiers 2012/01/05 08:14 Karma: 0  
If you tend to get congested during the winter months or your skin gets brittle and dry, a humidifier can be a good thing to have. This is because your home's heating system can suck moisture out of the air as it runs.

An Aprilaire humidifier is a whole-house humidifier unit installed on the heating duct at the point where hot air leaves the furnace. Clean and inspect your Aprilaire humidifier at the start of every heating season to maintain proper functioning of the unit. Built-up mineral deposits distribute water unevenly on the water panel and may cause leaking from the tubing or tray. The water panel should be replaced annually, according to the manufacturer.

Disconnect the unit from the power source by unplugging from an outlet or turning off the appropriate breaker if the unit is hard-wired into the electrical system.
2

Turn off water to the humidifier at the supply line. If a valve was not installed on the supply line, turn off the main water to the house while cleaning the unit.
3

Move the bypass damper located on the heating duct to the "Summer" position.

Thanks

Using Aprilaire whole-house humidifier is definitely better than portable ones. For one, these humidifiers do not need daily cleaning that almost all portable humidifiers require. Second, it constantly checks the set humidity level and then works to give off the just right amount of humidity you need.

Inspect the plastic feed tube for cracks or other wear. Replace if there are any visible signs of deterioration such as holes or if the tube is brittle. Replace the water panel annually. If scale or deposits build up on the water panel, replace as needed, depending on minerals in your water supply. Remove mineral deposits on the distribution tray with a stiff toothbrush. Be careful to remove the debris from the unit, and prevent the debris from covering holes and blocking water flow to the water panel. Inspect the drain line for damage such as brittle tubing or holes. Replace the drain line if there is obvious deterioration to the drain tube. Inspect floats and the float chamber, and clean mineral desposits as needed.
