INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your new humidier.
The Honeywell Humidier provides the comfort of humidied air, with easier maintenance than traditional
humidiers. We are sure the humidier will be a welcome addition to your home.
• How is the humidier different from other ow-through humidiers?
All Models:
- The humidier operates automatically, just like a thermostat, to keep your home’s humidity at the desired
level.
- The humidier is easier to maintain: just change the pad once a year. The pad is easily accessible and does
not require tools to change it.
- The humidier can deliver humidity when it’s needed, not just when the heat is on. This allows you to achieve
ideal humidity levels in your home year-round.
Advanced Models:
- The humidier wastes less water than other ow-through humidiers.
• How should I get started? Your humidier must be installed by an HVAC professional. If the humidier has
just been installed, it should either be running and humidifying your home, or waiting for a humidity call from
the humidity control.
Once the humidier is running, all you have to do is use the humidity control to change the humidity to your
desired comfort.
Welcome!
Please read this manual completely for tips on getting the most out of your humidier.
Read your humidity control manual and make sure you know how to operate your system.
If you have questions, now or later, please refer to this manual or ask your installer.
Humidier 69-2414EF—03 3
INTRODUCTION
1. A call for humidity comes from the humidity control
provided with the humidier. The humidity control
is connected to the humidier with wires.
2. The solenoid turns on, allowing water to run
through the humidier pad.
3. Air from your HVAC system ows through the pad,
picking up moisture from the humidier pad.
4. Your HVAC system fan delivers the humidied air
throughout your home.
5. When humidity in your home reaches the setpoint,
the humidity call ends and the solenoid turns off
the water owing across the pad.

YOUR NEW
HUMIDIFIER
The humidier is available in ve models with different sizes and/or features:
Some activities in your home may create longer operating times for the humidier. Vented replaces, high
exhaust from fans, or driers can reduce humidity in your home and make the humidier work harder.
Your professional installer or salesperson will have considered these and other factors when choosing the best
humidier model for your unique situation.

YOUR NEW
HUMIDIFIER
Your HVAC professional installer will install the humidier in a proper location in your home, on either the Return
or Supply duct of your HVAC system.
The humidier bypass model is installed directly onto
the Supply (hot) or Return (cool) air duct of your HVAC
system. Air ows through the humidier pad in the
humidier into the duct for distribution throughout your
home.
The humidier fan model is installed directly onto
the Supply (hot) air duct of your HVAC system. The
humidier’s fan draws air through the humidier pad
in the humidier and back into the duct for distribution
throughout your home.

COVER OFF
Your humidier installation includes the following parts and components that you should be familiar with:
A. Water Connection with Shutoff Valve
Provides the connection from your home water
supply to the humidier. Your installer may
have used the saddle valve that came with the
humidier, or may have chosen a different type
of connection. This connection must include a
shutoff valve for you to turn off water supply to the
humidier, if necessary.
B. Water Supply Line
This 1/4-inch line brings water to the humidier
from the water connection. Your installer may have
used plastic or copper supply line.
C. Water Drain Line
This 1/2-inch hose drains water from the humidier
to a drain in your home.
D. LEDs (HE150/HE250/HE300 only)
The three lights indicate the humidier’s
operational status and when service is required.
See “Humidier lights and button” on page 10.
E. RESET Button (HE150/HE250/HE300 only)
The RESET button is the only user button located
on the humidier. Use the RESET button to
manually reset the humidier when the Change
Pad or Service LEDs are on. See “Humidier lights
and button” on page 10.
Power
The Fan model is plugged into a 120 volt AC
household electrical outlet. Unplug the power cord
to turn off power.
The Bypass models are wired to a 15VA
transformer. To turn off power to these models, trip
the circuit to the junction box the transformer is
connected to.

What humidier parts do I need to know?

YOUR NEW
HUMIDIFIER
Honeywell wants to make sure you know what to expect from your humidier. Feel free to discuss these items
with your installer:
• Achieving Humidity Setpoint. It may take up to a week of continuous operation to achieve the humidity
setpoint, especially if the home is dry when the humidier is installed. This also depends on such factors as
weather, size of home, furnishings in the home, and insulation.
• Ideal Humidity. Home building industry experts cite 35% relative humidity as ideal for comfort and
safeguarding the home during the typical dry season. Adjust your humidity control to your comfort or until
there is condensation on the windows. Lower the setpoint if condensation appears.
• Unit Not Humidifying. If the humidier is not running but the humidity is below the setpoint, the humidity
control may have a frost protection setting to prevent window condensation from appearing. See “What is a
frost setting?” on the next page.
• Home Ventilation. Excessive ventilation sends moist air outside and replaces it with dry air. If the home is
drafty or has mechanical ventilators installed, it may be hard to maintain the humidity setpoint. If installing a
ventilator, use a solution that retains moisture. An Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) is recommended.
• Cleaning Requirements. At least once per year it is recommended to change the humidier pad and clean
the water trays of the humidier. See Cleaning and Maintenance section for details.
• Energy Consumption. You may notice a slight increase in overall energy consumption when operating any
humidier. However, humidied air feels warmer than dry air. This allows you to lower the temperature setting
on the thermostat. Every degree lower on the thermostat can save up to 3% on heating costs.
