Super easy to fit humidifier

and any fall I look like i just gone through a cactus forest. My legs get dry (strangely just my legs) and they itch terribly and if I don't wear socks I tear and scratch them at night (daytime impulse control). I literally dry myself off as soon as it gets cold. This thing works β€” humidity readings have gone up throughout the house, and my feet are thankful (so far). Obviously, this is a lot harder to set up than filling up a tank on a desktop device and plugging it into the mains. While it's recommended that you hire a professional to do this, I was able to do it myself with only a few stumbles. need to cut a big hole in the HVAC ducts. It's big - I was planning on taking the humidifier with me when I go, but it's something I can't easily fix. That was really the hardest part for me. Then install the device, connect the water pipes to the hot water pipe and connect the drain pipe. Assembling the control board is fairly easy, but keep in mind that one part has to be outside the house (the sensor) and you'll need a fair amount of wire to do it. If you don't connect this firmly and correctly, you will get an E3 error. You also need to connect the controller to the thermostat and oven, but that was pretty easy. There is also an odd little part in the kit that I had no idea what to do with. This is a magnetic transformer and was not mentioned anywhere in the instructions. One end of it must be brought to the house (line 120), and the other - to the controller. This is very poorly documented and very poorly schematic - just watch this step on YouTube. Generally not bad, I managed it in 2-3 hours. Yes, home is much better.
