I was given a Humidaire (antique) and the friend doesn't know anything about it. The thermostat was already set at 97.5 and we can't figure out how to raise the thermo to 99. Can you help? It has an alarm that sounds when the temp gets below 96 which only happens when I open the door to turn the eggs.
It has two fans in the incubator. It's the size of a double door refrigerator.
I have to manually keep water in the pan in the bottom but that one pan only keeps the humidity up to 40% which I know is ok until it's almost time to hatch and then I have to add more pans of water to raise the humidity to 60%...right?
 
Happy to report.........I figured it out.
There were some tiny knobs missing....required a tiny flat head object to reach in and turn the thermostat up.
Thanks for helping.

Hello, Was wondering if you ever found any printed or source for information on the Humidaire incubator you had posted about ? I have recently acquired this same model incubator and matching hatcher unit and would love to find more information about the electronics and operation. Mine seems to operate perfectly but figuring out how to properly make adjustments to the thermostats, alarms, humidity, etc.. Also the turner operation. Would appreciate any help or information source you might have? Thanks
