“The advice and service we received from Humidity Solutions were excellent, and we are very pleased with the new system.”
Humidity for the conditioning chambers comes from the Neptronic SKE humidifiers via steam distribution units. Sensor controlled, the humidifiers are connected to internal controllers which provide 'modulating output. This means the control is accurate.
