If installed and operating properly, I have no issue with it, other than I'm not a big fan of humidifiers installed to the HVAC.

I don't like them either i was just wondering the wisdom of putting one on top of an electric furnace. I know these things just love to leak

They love to leak, and they're allowed to be there. But why anyone would want a furnace, or more humidity is beyond me!! LOL

Believe or not Blaine we have to heat our air in the Winter here to stay warm and it gets awful dry without one.

Honestly, I used to get nosebleeds until I got one not to mention static shocks.

looks like they both have been there for some time from the picture....

furnace 1974 that is a 110 model aprilaire. I am just wondering what everybody thinks about putting that humdifier almost on top of the heating elements?

[James F. McKee]

leakage would almost always be on the outside Jeff...imo...and a properly adjusted humidifier can save a lot of heat dollars in the cold dry winter...

Thanks You know me i just love to worry

[Jeffrey A. Prince]

what do you think of these splices

[James E. Braun, CMI]

The water bypasses and the rotating drums humidifiers grow a lot of bad stuff in them. Now stem humidifiers are the way to go. Nice units - stainless steel. Have sold a few when I owned the HVAC company. Figure on paying double though.

Is that a federal pacific box attached to that unit
