Had to quickly replace the black rubber feed tube internal to a whole house humidifier late at night with the stores about to close. It would be similar to an Aprilaire 4335 except for a Honeywell. The ever quick wife found a bag of polyethylene plastic tubing for an ice-maker supply line before I could make it to the door. The size was right and it slid nicely onto the water solenoid on the bottom and the plastic nozzle on the water distribution tray on the top. The water is hot, but the polyethylene plastic tubing will not be under pressure as it is after the solenoid.

Any thoughts on if this is a long term viable solution or just a temporary one until I can get the right replacement?
