INTRODUCTION

Must be installed by a trained, experienced technician.

Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow these instructions can damage the product or cause a

hazardous condition.

Please read this manual completely. It is important that you understand how the humidiﬁer works, and how to

safely perform the require-d maintenance procedures. Read and understand all safety-related labels found on

and posted near the humidiﬁer. These labels provide additional instructions and important safety information.

Safety Deﬁnitions

These safety terms identify information you must read.

CAUTION: Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could cause bodily injury or

property damage.

WARNING: Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

Safety Precautions

WARNING: Electrocution Hazard.

The humidiﬁer uses 120 volts AC, which can cause death or serious injury. Take precautions when servicing

the humidiﬁer or when removing the cover. If in doubt, unplug the humidiﬁer or disconnect HVAC equipment

power before servicing.

CAUTION: Heavy Equipment and Water Hazard.

Improper installation or misuse can cause death, blindness, and damage to home and HVAC equipment.

Be sure you know how to turn the humidiﬁer off.

CAUTION: Condensation, Fire, and Freezing Water Hazard.

Safety Deﬁnitions and Precautions

Humidiﬁer 69-2414EF—01

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your new humidiﬁer.

The Honeywell Humidiﬁer provides the comfort of humidiﬁed air, with easier maintenance than traditional

humidiﬁers. We are sure the humidiﬁer will be a welcome addition to your home.

How is the humidiﬁer different from other ﬂow-through humidiﬁers?•

All Models:

- The humidiﬁer operates automatically, just like a thermostat, to keep your home’s humidity at the desired

level.

- The humidiﬁer 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 humidiﬁer 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 humidiﬁer wastes less water than other ﬂow-through humidiﬁers.

How should I get started?• Your humidiﬁer must be installed by an HVAC professional. If the humidiﬁer 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 humidiﬁer 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 humidiﬁer.

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.

Humidiﬁer 69-2414EF—01 3

INTRODUCTION

1. A call for humidity comes from the humidity control

provided with the humidiﬁer. The humidity control

is connected to the humidiﬁer with wires.

2. The solenoid turns on, allowing water to run

through the humidiﬁer pad.

3. Air from your HVAC system ﬂows through the pad,

picking up moisture from the humidiﬁer pad.

4. Your HVAC system fan delivers the humidiﬁed air

throughout your home.

5. When humidity in your home reaches the setpoint,

the humidity call ends and the solenoid turns off

the water ﬂowing across the pad.

How does the humidiﬁer work?

Humidiﬁer 69-2414EF—01

YOUR NEW

HUMIDIFIER

The humidiﬁer is available in ﬁve models with different sizes and/or features:

Some activities in your home may create longer operating times for the humidiﬁer. Vented ﬁreplaces, high

exhaust from fans, or driers can reduce humidity in your home and make the humidiﬁer work harder.

Your professional installer or salesperson will have considered these and other factors when choosing the best

humidiﬁer model for your unique situation.

YOUR NEW

HUMIDIFIER

Your HVAC professional installer will install the humidiﬁer in a proper location in your home, on either the Return

or Supply duct of your HVAC system.

The humidiﬁer bypass model is installed directly onto

the Supply (hot) or Return (cool) air duct of your HVAC

system. Air ﬂows through the humidiﬁer pad in the

humidiﬁer into the duct for distribution throughout your

home.

The humidiﬁer fan model is installed directly onto the

Supply (hot) or Return (cool) air duct of your HVAC

system. The humidiﬁer’s fan draws air through the

humidiﬁer pad in the humidiﬁer and back into the duct

for distribution throughout your home.

COVER OFF

Your humidiﬁer installation includes the following parts and components that you should be familiar with:

Water Connection with Shutoff ValveA.

Provides the connection from your home water

supply to the humidiﬁer. Your installer may

have used the saddle valve that came with the

humidiﬁer, 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

humidiﬁer, if necessary.

Water Supply LineB.

This 1/4-inch line brings water to the humidiﬁer

from the water connection. Your installer may have

used plastic or copper supply line.

Water Drain LineC.

This 1/2-inch hose drains water from the humidiﬁer

to a drain in your home.

LEDs (HE150/HE250/HE300 only)D.

The three lights indicate the humidiﬁer’s

operational status and when service is required.

See “Humidiﬁer lights and button” on page 10.

RESET Button (HE150/HE250/HE300 only)E.

The RESET button is the only user button located

on the humidiﬁer. Use the RESET button to

manually reset the humidiﬁer when the Change

Pad or Service LEDs are on. See “Humidiﬁer 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 humidiﬁer parts do I need to know?

YOUR NEW

HUMIDIFIER

Honeywell wants to make sure you know what to expect from your humidiﬁer. 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 humidiﬁer 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 humidiﬁer 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 humidiﬁer pad and clean

the water trays of the humidiﬁer. See Cleaning and Maintenance section for details.

Energy Consumption.• You may notice a slight increase in overall energy consumption when operating any

humidiﬁer. However, humidiﬁed 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.
