Did you know that the average person breathes 3400 gallons(12,870 liters) of air each day * and spends 90% of that day inside?**
Indoor air quality products from Honeywell are designed to help make your home more comfortable—from zoning products that allow you to control the temperature in individual areas of the home to humidifiers and comfort control centers that help balance the moisture content of your indoor air.
Honeywell is proud to be a partner of the American Lung Association® Health House® program that provides guidelines for constructing homes with improved air quality and ventilation.

OPERATING YOUR HUMIDIFIER
HE225A,HE265A
Your Enviracaire Elite™ HE225A and HE265A Humidifiers from Honeywell are controlled by the H8908B Convertible Humidity Control. The convertible humidity control is installed either on an interior wall in the living area, or on the return air duct. Choose the humidity control setting using the combination relative humidity/outdoor temperature setting scale on your humidity control dial. Match the dial setting to the outdoor temperature for optimizing the humidity level while reducing moisture conden­sation on your windows. The table below can also be used to adjust humidity control to the recommended setting.

NOTE: As outside temperature drops, the recommended humidity control setting is
lowered to adjust for effects of dewpoint. These settings should reduce accu­mulation of moisture and ice on your windows and other areas of your home.
Some indoor activities such as cooking, showering and clothes drying can cause excessive levels of humidity and start the accumulation of moisture on your windows.
NOTE: If this condition persists for more than a few hours, set the humidity control to
the lowest setting to turn off the humidifier. If the condition does not improve, ventilate your home to remove the moisture.
HE225B,HE265B
Your Enviracaire Elite™ HE225B and HE265B Humidifiers are ontrolled by the Honeywell H1008 Automatic Humidity Control with HumidCalc+™. The automatic humidity control is mounted in the return air duct where it can be exposed to the air stream of the return air.

HE225A,B AND HE265A,B BY-PASS FLOW-THROUGH HUMIDIFIERS
The HumidCalc+™ software inside your automatic humidity control is designed to measure or infer outdoor temperature and automatically adjust the humidity based on the frost factor setting that the homeowner sets to allow for variances in furnace size, window type and insulation.
The Automatic Humidity Control with HumidiCalc+™ requires an initial adjustment period. For maximum humidification, set the H1008 to 10 and run the fan continuously. Check for condensation on windows after a cold night. If there is no condensation, leave the setting at 10. If there is condensation, lower the frost factor dial one setting. Continue to check for condensation on cold mornings until the correct humidity setting is reached for your home. Allow two days between adjustments to determine if further adjustment is necessary. Once you have tuned in the proper setting, you should never have to adjust it again. HumidiCalc+™ takes over and makes any future adjustments caused by varying outdoor temperatures, thus reducing moisture build-up on windows while maintaining the optimal humidity level.
Humidity Level Recommended Setting
Insufficient humidity Increase the frost factor dial by one setting.
Condensation on windows Decrease the frost factor dial by one setting.
HOW YOUR HUMIDIFIER WORKS
Your Enviracaire Elite™ humidifier uses the principle that vapor (evaporated water) is created when warm air blows over a water soaked area. As the vapor circulates, the relative humidity rises.
Your humidity control monitors the relative humidity and activates the humidifier accordingly. The humidifier has a water supply that dispenses water evenly over the AgION™ antimicrobial humidifier pad. The warm dry air, from the furnace, passes over the humidifier pad and picks up the moist air to circulate it throughout your home.
Humidified air feels warmer and more comfortable so you may be able to lower your thermostat heating setpoint, which saves money on your heating fuel bills. The end result is that your humidifier gives you a cleaner, more comfortable environment that is also energy efficient.
MAINTAINING YOUR HUMIDIFIER
.A regular maintenance program prolongs the life of your humidifier and provides a more comfortable home. Frequency of cleaning depends on the condition of your water. You can use either hard or soft water in your humidifier, but hard water mineral deposits are more difficult to clean than soft water deposits. For optimum performance, Honeywell recommends replacing the AgION™ antimicrobial pad once a year. Use the following procedure to clean your Honeywell humidifier.

WARNING
Serious Personal Injury Hazard. Can cause electrical shock and injury from moving parts.
Disconnect power and shut off water supply before removing cover.
IMPORTANT
Never oil any part of the humidifier.
Every 1 to 3 Months (Depending on Water Quality)
1. Disconnect power and turn off humidifier water supply.
2. Remove the humidifier cover by unplugging the connector and loosening the
thumb screw. Grasp the cover near the bottom and pull toward you.
3. Remove humidifier pad assembly from humidifier by grasping top of tray and pull­ing it toward you.
4. Lift the tray off the pad.
5. Gently pinch water nozzle catches inward until you can lift water nozzle off tray.
6. Carefully remove any mineral deposits from tray and frame. Be sure frame drain
hole is not blocked.
7. Disconnect drain hose from drain fitting on the bottom of the humidifier housing.
8. Clean the drain fitting, if necessary.
9. Bend the drain hose to loosen any mineral deposits.
10. Flush the drain hose with pressuized water (a running tap) to clean the hose.
11. Reattach the drain hose to the drain fitting.
12. Snap the water nozzle back on the tray.
13. Be sure the marked end of the pad is facing up. Place the tray on the new pad.
14. Place humidifier pad assembly in humidifier housing. Be sure water feed tube is
placed in guide slots.
15. Replace the humidifier cover.
16. See Checking Your Humidifier for
Proper Operation section to verify operation.
End of Humidification Season
Clean the humidifier and shut it off at the end of the heating season. See Every 1 to 3 Months section, steps 1 through 15, to shut down for the season.

Vacation
The humidifier water supply and your humidity control can be turned off. Turn on humidifier water supply and reset your humidity control when you return.
CHECKING YOUR HUMIDIFIER OPERATION
After winter startup or servicing, check the humidifier operation:
1. Turn on the humidifier power and water supply.
2. Turn H8908B Control to highest setting or H1008A Control to test position; set
thermostat to 10°F (6°C) above room temperature.
NOTE: The H1008A Automatic Humidity Control stays in test mode for thirty minutes.
NOTE: The furnace blower must be on to activate the humidifier.
Then it automatically resets to the maximum frost factor setting. If system checkout is not completed in thirty minutes, test mode can be extended by turning dial setting back and then returning it to test mode.
3. Observe that water is flowing out of the drain hose.
4. Reset thermostat and H8908A Control to comfortable setting or H1008A
Automatic Control to desired frost factor setting for automatic operation.
TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR HUMIDIFIER
Problem What to Look for What to Do
Low humidity Furnace blower not
operating.
Rapid air changes. Drafts (cold air is dry and is an added load to humidifier).
High humidity Condensation on walls. •Turn off humidity control and water until
Heavy condensation on windows.
•Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse.
•Check that the furnace power is on.
•Check all external wiring connections.
•Check humidity control setting.
•Call a heating contractor.
•Keep doors and windows closed.
•Close fireplace damper if not using.
•Minimize exhaust fan running time.
•Seal around doors and windows.
condensation is completely evaporated.
•Turn humidity control low enough to eliminate bath and cooking conden­sation moisture. If moisture persists, more ventilation is needed.
