WELCOME
To the comfortable world of humidified air. When you use
your Honeywell humidifier, you notice that your skin is not
as dry, and that your scratchy throat and irritated nasal
passages that aggravate allergies and asthma are
steadily improving.
You have also taken the first step in reducing the zapping
you create when you walk on your carpet and then touch
your TV, computer, metal door knob or your pet. Your
furniture and woodwork are also benefitting from the
difference that humidified air makes.
Congratulations! You have just made a great investment
in improving the comfort of your home.
