No, the flow-thru humidifiers will not work in the summer months as the unit is heat activated. There is usually enough humidity in the summer months so there usually isn't a need to add humidity. I hope this helps.

Question
What is the default setting for the dip switches on a Wait 5000 humidfier?
I have just replaced a humdifiier with a Wait 5000 & have mislaid the manual. The unit is not providing sufficient humidity & while it may have to do humidisense sensor, I would like to verify the switch setting prior to looking at pressure switches or hard wiring.
Thanks
PS have just change the air filter to ensure good air flow.

Please see below for the humidifier pad for this unit. I hope this helps.
My unit is about 3 years old and the water valve does not always open to allow the flow of water. Can I buy parts for this humidifier? I live in Edmonton Alberta Canada.

The drain on this unit is really finicky. I had the same problem. Make sure there are no (even slight) "uphill" runs or areas where the water has to be "pushed". The drain system has to be completely free and open.
