Replacing a Humidifier Water Inlet Valve: How to Make Sure Your Humidifier is Ready For Winter
2013-10-10 13:34:09| About Home Repair
It's October but in the next few months winter will be in full effect and the air in your home will lose some of its moisture content. That means as the humidity level in your home decreases your humidifier will start adding moisture to the air flow from your furnace.So to avoid low humidity problems like static electricity, dry skin and respiratory problems make sure your humidifier is working properly now, before you really need it.If you find during humidifier maintenance that the humidifier is not getting water to the evaporator pad, then the problem may lie in a little device called a water inlet solenoid valve. This valve controls water flow into the humidifier. One of the most common repair problems with a humidifier is replacing a faulty solenoid. If the solenoid fails, the humidistat may be calling for additional humidity but the solenoid valve does not open and the humidifier will not work since water cannot saturate the evaporator pad in the humidifier. In the tutorial How to Replace a Humidifier Solenoid I'll show you step-by-step how to easily replace the solenoid and get back into comfort.
