Before performing any maintenance, allow the tank to cool down.
Note: Fresh make-up water is used to speed up cooling. Do not close the
manual water supply before cooling down the humidifier; otherwise the
tank could stay hot for several hours.
• Insulated and uninsulated tanks will have hot surfaces.
• Verify that there is no call for humidity and that the aquastat set point
(adjusted using the keypad/display Set Up screens) is less than room
temperature (default setting is 40 °F [4 °C]) so that the heaters do not
energize while cooling down the tank.
• For models with a standard drain valve:
– Manually open the drain valve.
– The float valve opens.
– Let the fill water run until the tank is cooled; then shut off the field-
installed manual supply water shut-off valve.
– Let the tank drain; then manually close the drain valve.
• For models with end-of-season drain option:
– Use the keypad/display to perform the cool down process.
– Select Manual Drain in the control modes screen.
– Allow approximately half the water to drain out of the tank.
– Select Auto in the control modes screen; the fill valve opens and the
humidifier cools down.
– When the fill valve closes, select Manual Drain in the control modes
screen and allow the tank to drain completely dry. The humidifier should
be cool enough to work on.
– For more information about using the keypad/display, see the
Vapor-logic version 5 Installation and Operation Manual.
WARNING
Hot surface and hot water hazard
Do not touch the tank or drain piping
until the unit has had sufficient time to
cool, or serious injury can occur.
Opening the drain valve when the
tank is hot can discharge water with a
temperature up to 212 °F (100 °C) into
the plumbing system. This can cause
damage to the plumbing system if the
humidifier is not properly connected
to a water tempering device such as a
DriSteem Drane-kooler
