HUMIDIFIERS
COMFORT CONTROL
TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR COMFORT BY ADDING MOISTURE TO DRY, INDOOR AIR.

As part of the Carrier indoor air quality strategy of Control, Filter and Refresh, controlling the humidity in your home is very important! You may not realize this, but
in many cases, the air inside your home is drier than a desert. Dry, indoor air is often the culprit for such common problems as itchy or cracked skin, eye irritation, dry, stuffy nasal passages and, damaged wood­work in your home. In addition to these comfort issues, dry indoor air can increase the possibilities of catching or transmitting cold and f lu viruses and can reduce the effi­ciency and effectiveness of your heating sys­tem. All of these problems can be alleviated with the help of a Carrier humidifier. Offering three different humidifiers, Carrier can provide enhanced indoor comfort, air quality and system efficiency with a model designed to fit your needs.
CARRIER DELIVERS ENHANCED INDOOR COMFORT WITH
HIGH-PERFORMANCE HUMIDIFIERS.
Adding moisture to the air inside your home improves the quality of the air that you breathe. In addition
to the comfort issues, dry air can be the ideal atmosphere for the growth of bacteria and viruses. Viral infections such as a cold or flu are easier to contract or pass to others under low humidity conditions. These problems can be controlled through proper humidification with a Carrier whole-home humidifier. Keeping your home properly humidified can also help minimize the dust mite population and the growth of mold. Each of our humidif iers comes standard with our humidistat control, or you can upgrade to automatic humidity control with our HumidiTrac™or Thermidistat
Control options.
A Carrier humidifier enhances your ability to control system efficiency and effectiveness. As the
moisture from indoor air evaporates, the temperature in your home feels colder. In the winter, that means you will likely turn up the thermostat to feel comfortable. As a result, your system will use extra energy. By putting moisture back into the air, a humid­ifier allows you to remain comfortable at a lower heating temperature for lower energy use and greater operating efficiency. To help maintain optimum performance of your Carrier humidifier, we recommend yearly replacement of the evaporator pad and routine cleaning of the drain.
A Carrier humidifier helps protect your furnishings for years by preventing damage due to dryness, cracking and separating.
You can avoid those annoying shocks of static electricity this winter by adding a Carrier humidifier to your comfort system.
Maintaining optimum humidity in your home can provide relief from dry nasal passages, static electricity, and dry, itchy skin. Proper humidity control is also important for minimizing the growth of bacteria, molds, viruses and dust mites.
As warm, dry air passes through the humidifier pad, moisture is absorbed into the air and distributed throughout your home for a more comfortable indoor environment.
CONTROL STRATEGY

CARRIER QUALITY
Carrier humidifiers are equipped with many standard features.
Depending on which model best matches your system, a Carrier humidifier will deliver between 12 and 18 gallons of moisture per day.
Carrier humidifiers are packaged in a thermoplastic cover with UV inhibitors. Carrier is the first to offer
a humidifier casing designed to resist damage from ultraviolet light sources. This corrosion-resistant cover also withstands the stress of high temperatures and incidental impact for years of good looks and functionality.
These features, along with our hard-earned reputation for deliver­ing top-quality products make choosing a Carrier humidifier an easy choice. Once you choose Carrier,
your local Comfort Control Specialist will analyze your system and help select the per­fect humidifier model for controlling your indoor comfort.

Easy maintenance and cleaning of the treated expanded aluminum pad ensures top performance. Pad can be removed easily through the access door on the front of the humidifier.
Quiet operation is provided by the precision-tuned fan and motor combi­nation. The fan efficiently draws dry air through the evaporator pad, turning water into water vapor.
Carrier puts you in control of your comfort with three distinct options for maintaining proper humidity in your home. We understand that not all
homes – and homeowners – are alike. From the very basic to the very sophisticated, we offer three options for humidity system control.

HUMIDISTAT
The humidistat provides
accurate, manual control
of humidity levels.
When conditions
change, simply adjust
the control for more or less humidit y. Simple to set and easy to use, the humidistat comes standard with every humidifier we offer.
HUMIDITR AC
For automatic humidity control, you can upgrade
to a Carrier HumidiTrac
control. With
HumidiTrac, set your
desired humidity level,
and then walk away. This system responds to changes in outdoor temperatures, taking about 86,000 readings per day, and automatically adjusts the relative humidity in your home for maximum comfort. HumidiTrac can help your humidifier provide 50% more moisture than standard humidifier/control combinations.
THERMIDISTAT
CONTROL
The patented
Carrier
Thermidistat
Control
combines the
features of
a deluxe
thermostat and an automatic humidistat to deliver comfort control no other manufacturer offers. This optional upgrade monitors both temperature and humidity levels, then adjusts system operation for the best combination of comfort and energy efficiency.
The Carrier IdealHumidity
System works all day and all
night to con­trol both temperature AND humidity for the ultimate in comfort all year long.
Other systems rely on heating or cooling to control humidity. IdealHumidity from Carrier is the ONLY system that controls humidity even when the indoor temperature does not require heating or cooling operation. Carrier humidifiers can be a part of an IdealHumidity System with the addition of a variable speed furnace or fan coil and a Thermidistat Control. Ask your Carrier dealer for details
