over and makes any future adjustments
caused by varying outdoor temperatures,
thus reducing moisture build-up on windows
while maintaining the optimal humidity level.
HOW YOUR
HUMIDIFIER WORKS
Your Enviracaire Elite™ Humidifier uses 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 the
AgION™ antimicrobial humidifier pad. The
warm dry air, from the furnace, passes over
the antimicrobial 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
cleaner, more comfortable environment that
is also energy efficient.

MAINTAINING YOUR
HUMIDIFIER
A regular maintenance program prolongs the
life of your humidifier and provides a more
comfortable home. Frequency of cleaning
depends on the condition of your water.
You can use either hard or soft water in your
humidifier, but hard water mineral deposits
are more difficult to clean than soft water
deposits. For optimum performance,
Honeywell recommends replacing the
AgION™ antimicrobial pad once a year.
