Honeywell Whole House Dehumidifier

Owner’s Manual

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.
