WELCOME
Congratulations on your purchase of an HE240 or HE280 whole-house humidifier.
Proper use of a whole-house humidifier has numerous benefits related to your
family's health and comfort, as well as helping to safeguard and protect your home.

How Your Humidifier Works

HE240 and HE280 humidifiers use 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 a
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 comfortable environment that is also energy
efficient.

Model Specific Features
