Nortec RH2+ - Mounting Procedure; Mounting Requirements

Mounting Procedure
1. The RH2 humidifier is wall mounted using a keyhole
located on the back of the humidifier.
2. Use #8 x 2 in. (5 cm) screws mounted into 2x4 studs
or better if there is drywall or other spacers. 2 screws
are needed, one for hanging the unit and one for
securing it so it will not lift off the keyhole.
3. Install the top screw so that 1/4 in. (6 mm) is exposed.
Raise the unit and place the screw head through the
keyhole.
4. Make sure the unit is level and then insert and tighten
the second screw through the bottom hole. Tighten
the top screw.
Mounting Requirements
Nortec does not accept responsibility for installation
code violations.
1. Install as close as possible to the steam distributor.
2. Minimize the use of turn or bends in the steam line as

sit the on the floor, where freezing can occur, or on
vibrating surfaces.

connections. Consult local and national codes prior
