Aprilaire 800Z Steam Humidifier?

On my old 14-year old Janitrol system, I had an Aprilaire 700 bypass humidifier installed. It was a very reliable humidifier, but I was never able to get above 35% humidity during a typical Virginia winter. On the new 4-Ton Daikin Fit system that's being installed this week, I'm considering an Aprilaire 800Z steam humidifier.

For those of you who are familiar with these systems, how does an Aprilaire 800Z compare with an Aprilaire 700 in terms of performance, water usage, and electricity? Is 120V good enough for a 3,700 sq. ft. house or will I need to supply it with 240V? My Aprilaire 700 was tied into an underground condensate line that drained at the back of our property. Can I do the same with the 800Z? If I do this, I am having it professionally installed.

Thanks!
