Ask Rick: High Pressure Humidification | Direction of Nozzles?

Q. Can you confirm if the dispersion on high pressure manifolds should be into the airstream (against flow) or with the airstream? I have a question from a contractor on this and I wanted to double check with you.

In the Carel humiFog system the nozzles point in the direction of airflow so they discharge downstream. Mee Fog is the same now,   although they changed to this in the last two years.  Before then they pointed  nozzles against flow.   This could vary with manufacturers so it is worthwhile to check.
