The GA-23 Vapor Pad operates passively within your humidifier. Once installed, water flows over the pad, and the furnace fan circulates air through the moistened pad, adding humidity to your home's air. The humidifier's humidistat controls when the unit operates to maintain your desired humidity level.
Maintenance (Pad Replacement)
The vapor pad should be replaced at least once per heating season, or more frequently in areas with hard water or heavy humidifier usage. Signs that a pad needs replacement include:
- Reduced humidification output.
- Visible mineral buildup or discoloration on the pad.
- Unpleasant odors from the humidifier.
Refer to the "Installation Instructions" section for detailed steps on replacing the vapor pad.
