Well, from what I read of this snarl, it sounds like you don't want the
humidifier draining water into the condensate pump if the funace is dead,
and the house is cold.

On the humidifiers I've wired, the water valve is controlled in part by
the
blower fan of the furnace. So, if the furnace isn't running, the
humidifier
won't get any water. In short, it's a non issue. If the furnace isn't
warm,
it won't be blowing. If it's not blowing, the water won't be flowing.

You can switch the AC, if you want. That's easy enough. But I wouldn't
bother to leave the central AC turned on if I wasn't home. Another non
issue.

Have I been a bit reassuring? Hope so!

As I just replied to your previous post, this is exactly why we are in
DEMAND!!

Below is the OP, re-read the post and see if you can comprehend the question
he actually asked.

Competent techs :

1.) to be able to read and follow directions
2.) to be able to find the problem and be able to solve it

I have a newer Rheem RGRA gas furnace with a Rheem A/C controlled by a
Honeywell T8600D thermostat, and an Aprilaire 760A humidifier. I would
like
to use the condensate pump's cutoff switch to shut down the A/C and the
humdifier water supply, but not the furnace, to avoid a freeze condition.
How can I wire the system to work? The alt.hvac guys were less than
helpful.
Thanks.
