Whole-home Carrier humidifier corrodes furnace cabinet or nearby metal surfaces.

Safety first: Turn off power before inspecting inside the furnace or air handler.

Steps:

• 1. Lower humidity setpoint: Follow Carrier guidelines for indoor humidity vs. outdoor temperature to prevent condensation.
• 2. Inspect for leaks: Check the humidifier cabinet and connections for water leaks and correct any found.
• 3. Seasonal operation: Ensure the humidifier is disabled during cooling season unless specifically designed for year-round use.
