WELCOME...
to the comfortable world of humidified air. With your humidifier you will notice a
decrease in dry skin, scratchy throats and irritated nasal passages that aggravate
allergies and asthma. You’ve also taken the first step to stopping the “zapping” created
by walking on your carpet and touching your TV, computer, metal door knob or your
pet. You can even put away your glue bottle because your furniture and woodwork will
stop drying out. Congratulations! You have just made a great investment in your home
comfort.

OPERATING YOUR HUMIDIFIER
Your HE220A and HE260A Humidifiers are controlled by the H8908B Humidistat that
is installed either on an interior wall in the living area or in the equipment room.
Choose the humidity control setting using the combination relative humidity/outdoor
temperature setting scale on your humidistat. Match the dial setting to the outdoor
temperature for optimizing the humidity level while reducing the moisture condensation
on your windows. The table below can also be used to adjust the humidistat to the
recommended setting.
NOTE: As the outside temperature drops, the recommended humidistat setting is
lowered to accommodate for effects of dew point. These settings should
reduce the accumulation of moisture and ice on your windows and in other
areas of your home.
