Honey-do

Hello.
Put in a whole house humidifier. Not nearly as daunting as wiring up a new ceiling fan, but still a challenge. So I'm supposed to sit there and watch the thing until it starts to drain. I'm too tired for that. So I just turned it off, and unplugged it. I still have to find a drainage solution. Currently I have the drain tube in a bucket. Elegant, eh? It was pretty cool to see the electrical work on the first go. I used a fused outlet. I have to find a smaller fuse for it. The humidifier only pulls .7 amps, so I want a small 1-2amp fuse. This way no one will accidentally use it for a space heater or something. It's hooked up through the furnace, so the humidifier will only have power while the furnace has the heat cycle going. I watched it go through the cycle, and it is pretty cool how it waits until the flames are lit and the blower has been going for a few seconds.

Turns out I have another thing to do. I just remembered as I am writing this post. I still have to install the humidistat. We have wires running to near the thermostat. When we bought the house, it used to have a humidistat, but no humidifier. So two summers ago, whilst painting our living room and hallway, we decided to rip it off the wall and cover over it. I guess that I'll find out if I did a good enough patch job.

Alright, enough rambling. G'night.
