as long as it is flow throgh it is correct. I always mount the humidifier on
the return though as a precaution so that if it leaks later it will only leak
in the return and not on the heat exchanger.

Thanks. Does this not mean though that the return air mixed with
water vapour from the humidifier is then fed through the intake fan
and blown over the heat exchanger ? You would lose most of the
moisture this way right?
