how to repair an aprilaire humidifier water solenoid valve

by:AIRWOLF     2020-06-11
During the normal operation of the Aprilaire household humidifier, the device opens a water valve operated by a special electrical device called solenoid.
When the device needs water, it sends a pulse to the solenoid to charge the coil in the device.
The magnet then pulls the valve back through the magnetic to allow the flow of water.
If the solenoid fails, the water does not flow and there is too little water provided at home.
