Features and Benefits
The Honeywell DH90 Whole House Dehumidifier is designed to provide ultimate indoor air quality. The DH90 provides the three key components of healthy indoor air: fresh air ventilation, particulate filtration and humidity control. At the heart of the DH90 is a high capacity, energy efficient dehumidifier capable of removing over 90 pints (11.2 gallons) of water per day (at 80°F, 60% relative humidity), while using only 6.2 amps of electricity (120V). This allows the unit to maintain indoor humidity levels below 50%, the level widely recognized as critical for controlling mold and mildew.

Operating Instructions
How do I set the humidity level?
The DH90 dehumidifier is controlled by the Honeywell H8908 dehumidistat. The dehumidistat sets the humidity level within the home much like a thermostat sets the temperature. Set the dehumidistat to your comfort level. A typical setting of 30 should keep the home comfortable for most. If the home is too dry, set the
dehumidistat to a higher level. If the home is too damp, set the dehumidistat to a lower level. There is also a chart on the front of the dehumidistat that lists recommended settings based on the outdoor temperature.

Fresh Air Ventilation with:
W8150 Fresh Air Ventilation Controller
The DH90 comes with the Honeywell W8150 fresh air ventilation control. The W8150 along with the optional Y8150 damper automatically controls the ventilation based on the size of your home, number of bedrooms and airflow of your HVAC system based upon ASHRAE 62.2 Standard. Please see the installation guide or talk to your installing contractor on how to set your W8150.
Optional Y8150 Damper
The Y8150 damper provides optimal ventilation control when wired with the W8150 fresh air controller. Contact your installing contractor to purchase and install the damper if your Honeywell Whole House Dehumidifier was not installed with one.
Owner’s Manual
Maintenance
The DH90 is equipped with a MERV 11 media filter. This filter should be checked every three months. Operating the unit with a dirty filter will reduce dehumidifier capacity and efficiency and may cause the compressor to cycle off and on unnecessarily on the defrost control.
A MERV rating of 11 means the filter is 85% to 95% minimum efficient at capturing a broad range of particles. For greatest filtration and efficiency of the DH90, it is recommended the air filter be replaced every three months with a MERV 11 rated filter.
Check drain outlet and hose once a year to clear drain of any debris.
CAUTION: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD :
DO NOT operate the unit without the standard filter or with a less effective filter than the standard MERV 11 filter. The heat exchange coils inside the unit could become clogged and require disassembly to clean.
