Automatic, whole house humidifiers for homes with forced air heating up to 5,000 square feet. EvenMist Humidifiers use fresh water and your forced air ductwork to humidify your whole house. Easy, do-it-yourself installation. To order click on the model you wish to purchase.
1. Why won't the media wheel on my TurboMist turn when my furnace blower comes on?
It is likely that the TurboMist is installed in a "dead air" space and the turbine is not receiving airflow of sufficient velocity. To determine if this is the problem, remove TurboMist from duct and blow on the turbine, making sure the shaft is pushed all the way into the turbine assembly orifice. If it turns, then this is the problem. To solve this problem, cut a slit in the pipe about as wide as the TurboMist. Slide a piece of sheet metal into the plenum.
2. Is it okay for my FM-90 to run continuously?
It will not harm the motor but be careful not to over humidify your home. Go by the guidelines in the instruction manual for recommended relative indoor humidity levels.
3. Why does my TM-2000 keep spraying after the blower on my furnace shuts off?
First make sure that the unit will stop spraying if the unit is unplugged. If it shuts off with no power supplied to it, then the solenoid valve is good. If the valve is good, then it is likely that there is enough residual heat left over to keep the heat sensitive switch activated. The solution is to have an electrician wire a receptacle in parallel with the blower motor. Then plug the TM-2000 into this receptacle or install a Field ABA-1. If you connect the TM-2000 to the blower motor make sure you install a surge protector on the receptacle to protect the transformer.
4. Why do I get condensation in my ductwork downstream of my TM-2000?
Make sure that the nozzle has at least one cubic foot of space for the nozzle to spray into. Sudden changes in the direction of the ductwork can cause turbulent airflow. One example may be if the nozzle is installed before a "Tee" in the ductwork. Move the remote sprayer to one branch of the "Tee" providing that the one cubic foot of space is available in the branch. Sometimes a 45° elbow is needed to direct the spray more into the center of the duct.
5. Can I use hot water for my TM-2000?
Yes, it will work a little better since the hot water will evaporate more rapidly, but cold water is preferable since the plastic tubing will soften with hot water and may cause leakage. Also, if you have a water softener, it is usually installed prior to a water heater, which means the humidifier would be using softened water, which can damage the solenoid valve and nozzle. If you have hard water the nozzle may clog a little more often due to lime scale.
6. Why do I get white dust build-up all over the house now that I am using the TM-2000?
The dust is actually the minerals in your water. The only technology available we know of is a reverse osmosis system for the whole house. A reverse osmosis system will remove the minerals from the water supply.
7. Why does the media pad on my FM-90 keep getting a yellowish-white build-up on it?
This is hard water scale. A ClearWave Water Conditioner should alleviate this problem.
8. Why does the nozzle on my TM-2000 drip all the time even with the unit shut off?
The solenoid valve is not properly closing and needs replacing. For a replacement solenoid valve contact our sales department at (252) 522-3031 and they will be able to assist you.
9. Why would I need the optional humidistat for the TM-2000?
The humidistat will help prevent the problems of having too much humidity in the air. The humidistat is wired in series with the 24-volt power supply of the TM-2000 and will prevent the TM-2000 from operating if the humidity level exceeds the setting on the humidistat.
10. Why does my TM-2000 spray whether the power is on or off?
The solenoid valve may have been put in backwards. Switch the tubes on the main TM-2000 housing so that the water supply is connected to the "out" and run the "in" to the remote spray bracket. If the problem still exists the solenoid valve is stuck open and would need replacing. For a replacement solenoid valve contact our sales department at (252) 522-3031 and they will be able to assist you.
11. Does the TM-2000 require any maintenance?
The water needs to be shut off and the water supply tube needs to be drained after the heating season. The nozzle and water inlet filter need to be changed at the end of the heating season, possibly more often depending on the condition of the water.
