"We received the Aprilaire Model 600 a few weeks ago and it went just great! The only problems I encountered were dealing with the existing humidifier that was in place when we bought the house. Thanks for the wiring tech support. The person I talked to explained just how to connect it up and was very courteous and professional. The price was also very competitive and all went well. Thanks for the great customer service!"
Liquid line and suction line filter-driers are often referred to as System Protectors because they remove harmful elements from the circulating refrigerant before serious damage results.
Keeping the system clean and free of foreign contaminants that can restrict the operation of valves, block capillary tubes or damage compressors is the best way to assure trouble-free operation. These contaminants can be solids, such as metal filings, flux, dust and dirt. Other equally menacing contaminants are solubles, such as acid, water, resins and wax.
No matter how many precautions are taken during assembly and installation or servicing of a system, contaminants can find a way into the system. Filter-driers are designed to protect a system during operation. It is the function of this all-important unit to remove those residual elements that can attack and eventually destroy the system components.
