Wally, Please be more precise, was the heater bar alone without any control box ? It is very important as I know some people install thoses (rods only). While the humidistat is not so pricey I'd like to tell them about fire hazard if it is the case. Best Regards.

My in-laws lost their mobile home and most of its contents a few years ago. The problem was traced to a heater bar in the piano. (I wasn't in the same state when it happened, nor had ever serviced the piano, so don't blame me.) ===== Wallace T.
