HE360 HUMIDIFIER
OPERATION

How Your Humidifier Works

Your Resideo 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 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.

Controlling Your Humidity Settings

Your H6062 Humidistat controls your humidifier.
• Choose the humidity control setting using the combination of relative humidity/outdoor temperature setting
scale on your humidity control dial.
• When the outdoor sensor is used, the H6062 will optimize the humidity level while reducing moisture
condensation on the windows. See the H6062 instructions for settings and adjustments.
NOTE: If the outdoor sensor is not used with H6062, as the outside temperature drops, a lower humidity
setting is recommended to accommodate dewpoint effects. These settings should reduce the
accumulation of moisture and ice on windows and other areas of the home.
• Adjust the humidity control setting to adjust for indoor activities such as cooking, showering and clothes
drying, which can cause excessive levels of humidity that can accumulate moisture on your windows.
NOTE: If these activities persist 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.

MAINTAINING YOUR HUMIDIFIER

A regular maintenance program prolongs the life of your humidifier and makes your home more comfortable.
The 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.
Use the following procedure to clean your Resideo humidifier.
