Mist Eliminator Maintenance
1 The HP HVAC system should typically be installed downstream of air filters to minimize Mist
Eliminator maintenance. In any case, Nortec recommends an annual inspection of mist
eliminator media.
2 If the media is becoming contaminated with dust, it should be removed and cleaned with a
vacuum or gentle water spray.
Do not use any solvents or chemicals for cleaning mist eliminator media. Odors produced
could be harmful to occupants downstream. As well, chemicals and solvents could degrade
the fire and antibacterial coatings on the media.
3 For optimum performance, Nortec recommends replacing mist eliminator media annually.
End of Season Shutdown
1 At the end of a humidification season the system can either be left in standby or shutdown
for the off-season.
2 A properly installed system can be left in stand-by as it will flush itself automatically. It may
save time and maintenance to allow the HP HVAC system to stay active in standby mode
during an off-season. Please note that in standby mode the system will consume some
water periodically to flush itself.
