SOURCE: Humidifier control .

if humidifier was wired into thermostat circuit for power instead of seperate transformer , this can happen. you need to see if you voltage going to the solenoid valve. if you do , and it isn't opening, the valve is bad . this is assuming that it is using a # 50 relay to come on only when the fan runs . . make sure the water valve is open

SOURCE: Aprilaire 700 using too much water-------

There is a small oriface that is installed next to the solenoid valve. It sounds like this oriface is missing. It reduces the water flow through the humidifier when it is working properly. You should be able to disassemble the solenoid fittings to check and see if the oriface is in the water line. For a "temporary" fix regulate the water pressure down by closing down on the saddle valve.
Good luck

Most likely you have too much water going to the unit you may have to throttle down the water valve that is tapped into the domestic water source. Also check to see if the tray is in the spud going to the drain

Problem with 2 ....1 on each furnance Aprilaire 700 Humidifiers.. no fan no soilinoid click red light on one when furnance is runing they both worked last year

Odd for both to be out. Check the water supply sometimes corrosion or scale will block the saddle piercing valve. Run it all the way into the pipe. Usually need to spin the little valve handle clockwise. Then back it all the way back to full open and reset humidifier power and furnace power. After that may want to crack open water supply connection right before the solenoid at each humidifier to make sure water is getting to them.

Aprilaire 700. It works on fan on mode but not otherwise. It's never on and the humidity reading is always way below the setting. It should turn on automatically to bring the humidity up, right?

It appears your Aprilaire model 700 is wired to only operate when your HVAC fan is operated by your thermostat. Your HVAC installer can wire the humidifier control to operate the humidifier during a heat call, fan call or to turn on the fan when there is a need for humidification. Please contact your HVAC installer to have them change the wiring.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to be of service

Aprilaire 700 humidifier does not come on

Make sure the fan unit door (over the water panel) is closed. Push on it to ensure it is fully shut.

I have an Aprilaire 700 that is leaking at the bottom. Most of the water exits as it should through the drain tube. I am not sure my fan is turning. Is it that quiet or should I hear it? How can I test?

Water dripping from unit

if the water panel needs to be replaced , this can happen. instead of going through the panel , water will run on the outside of the panel and drip through the seems on the humidifier cover. make sure the plastic hose that goes into the water panel is inserted into the water panel.
