Abstract: A humidifier for a fan coil is provided. The fan coil has an air flow path extending from a return air inlet port to a treated air outlet port with a heat exchange unit positioned in the air flow path. The heat exchange unit is in thermal communication with a heat source. The humidifier includes: a) an upstream temperature sensor provided in the air flow path upstream of the heat exchanger; b) a downstream temperature sensor provided in the air flow path downstream of the heat exchanger; c) a humidification unit in flow communication with the air flow path whereby, when the humidification unit is actuated, water is provided to air in the air flow path; and, d) a controller operably connected to the humidification unit, wherein in operation the controller receives an upstream signal from the upstream temperature sensor and a downstream signal from the downstream temperature sensor.
