Cold air plenum on my furnace is all made of an insulation material and is not ridgid.
What is the best way to mount my Aprilaire600 on it? :confused:

Hi Jay,

Thanks for your reply.
I am in Georgia and the furnace is in the basement of my house. There is absolutely no metal on either plenum. I guess I could engineer some sort of bracket fixed to the ceiling and mount the humidifer to the bracket. Can it work that way?

Wow.. in the basement and no metal is used??

I have never seen that before..

If you can ridge something up go ahead and give it a try.. Make sure it's stable to it won't get water into the ductwork.
