HE220 AND HE260 BY-PASS FLOW-THROUGH HUMIDIFIER
69-1111EF—05 20
OPERATING YOUR HUMIDIFIER
Your Honeywell HE220A and HE260A Humidifiers
are controlled by the H8908A Convertible Humidity
Control installed on either 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. Match the dial setting to
the outdoor temperature for optimizing the humidity
level while reducing the moisture condensation on
your windows. Use the table below to adjust the
humidity control to the recommended setting.
NOTE: As the outside temperature drops, the recommended humidity control setting
is lowered to accommodate for dewpoint effects. These settings should
reduce the accumulation of moisture and ice on your windows and in 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.
Your Honeywell HE220B and HE260B Humidifiers are
controlled by the Honeywell H1008 Automatic Humidity
Control with HumidiCalc+™ Software. The automatic
humidity control is mounted in the return air duct where it
can be exposed to the return air airstream.The
HumidiCalc+™ Software inside your automatic humidity
control is designed to automatically adjust the humidity
level based on indoor temperature and humidity, inferred
or measured outdoor temperature, and the frost factor
dial setting. The frost factor allows for variations in
furnace size, window insulation and average daily climate
temperature.
