IMPORTANT
With low-speed airflow or variable speed sys-
tems it is recommended to run tubing to both the
supply and return ducts.
Fig. 12. Install tubing.
You may cut the tubing to fit the connection length
between the tubing fitting elbow and switch. It is also
recommended to secure the hose to existing structures to
avoid accidental disconnection.
INSTALLING HUMIDISTAT
Mounting Duct
1. Apply the template to the duct location chosen for
the humidistat. Make sure the template is level
before drilling the holes.
2. Refer to the template (provided with the H8909
Humidistat Installation Instructions) to drill the con-
trol assembly opening and mounting holes for the
H8908.
3. Remove the H8908 case from the base.
4. Position the foam gasket on the H8908 base.
5. Position the base on the duct with the arrow up.
6. Secure the base to the duct using the four
1 in. (25 mm) mounting screws provided with humi-
distat.
7. Connect the low-voltage wires to the leads and
replace the H8908 case. See Fig. 14.
NOTE: For wall mounting instructions, see the H8908

Fig. 15. Close-up of pressure switch wiring.
1. Run the two-strand thermostat wire from the humid-
ifier to the transformer, from the transformer to the
humidistat, and from the humidistat to the pressure
switch.
2. Cut lengths of thermostat wire to reach between
components, leaving adequate wire at both ends for
connections.
NOTE: Transformer, humidistat and pressure switch can
be wired in any order.
3. At the humidifier, connect the black and white con-
ductors to the two black humidifier wires.
4. At the transformer, connect both black conductors
to the two transformer terminals. Use a wire nut to
connect together the two white conductors.
