Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a water retaining structure and a humidifier with the water retaining structure. The water retaining structure is disposed on a bottom surface of a water tank assembly. The water retaining structure and the water tank assembly are split. The water retaining structure includes a mist collecting portion and a water retaining portion. The mist collecting portion is formed into a mist collecting space. The mist collecting space communicates with a mist outlet tube in the water tank assembly. The water retaining portion is configured to collect water flowing down from the mist outlet tube. The water retaining structure and the water tank assembly are split so that the bottom surface of the water tank assembly is configured as a flat surface, or a height of a structure disposed on the bottom surface is reduced.

A heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes an enclosure that is divided by a partition extending between a first panel and a second panel of the enclosure such that the partition defines an outdoor air flow path and a return air flow path through the enclosure. The partition includes an opening extending between the outdoor airflow path and the return airflow path. The HVAC system also includes an energy recovery wheel that translatably extends through the opening and is positioned within the outdoor air flow path and the return air flow path. The energy recovery wheel is disposed within the enclosure at an oblique angle relative to the outdoor air flow path and the return air flow path.

A low profile shaft adaptor for coupling an output drive member of an HVAC actuator with an input drive member of a valve. The shaft adaptor may include a clamp for selectively clamping onto the input drive member of the valve, a drive interface configured to form an interference fit with an output drive member of the HVAC actuator, and a bracket configured to mechanically couple the drive interface and the clamp such that rotational movement of the drive interface by way of the interference fit with the output drive member of the HVAC actuator causes corresponding rotational movement of the clamp and thus the input drive member of the valve.
