Your Enviracaire Elite™ HE365A Humidifier from  
Honeywell is controlled by the H8908B Convertible  
Humidity Control. The convertible humidity control is  
installed either on 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 dial. Match the dial setting to the outdoor  
temperature for optimizing the humidity level while  
reducing the moisture condensation on your windows.  
The table below can also be used 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 effects of dewpoint. 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.  
HE365B  
Your Enviracaire Elite™ HE365B Humidifier is controlled  
by the Honeywell H1008 Automatic Humidity Control  
with HumidCalc+™. The automatic humidity control is  
mounted in the return air duct where it can be exposed  
to the air stream of the return air.

HE365A,B POWERED FLOW-THROUGH HUMIDIFIER  
The HumidCalc+™ software inside your automatic humidity control is designed to  
measure or infer outdoor temperature and automatically adjust the humidity based on  
the frost factor setting that the homeowner sets to allow for variances in furnace size,  
window type and insulation.  
The Automatic Humidity Control with HumidiCalc+™ requires some initial adjustments  
when you first install your HE365B. For maximum humidification, set the H1008 to 10  
and run the fan continuously. Check for condensation on windows after a cold night. If  
there is no condensation, leave the setting at 10. If there is condensation, lower the  
frost factor dial one setting. Continue to check for condensation on cold mornings until  
the correct humidity setting is reached for your home. Allow two days between  
adjustments to determine if further adjustment is necessary. Once you have tuned in  
the proper setting, you should never have to adjust it again. HumidiCalc+™ takes 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 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. Use the  
following procedure to clean your Honeywell humidifier.

hole is not blocked.  
7. Disconnect drain hose from drain fitting on the bottom of the humidifier housing.  
8. Clean the drain fitting, if necessary.  
9. Bend the drain hose to loosen any mineral deposits.  
10. Flush the drain hose with pressurized water (a running tap) to clean the hose.  
11. Reattach the drain hose to the drain fitting.  
12. Snap the water nozzle back on the tray.  
13. Be sure the marked end of the pad is facing up. Place the tray on the new pad.

The humidifier water supply and your humidity control can be turned off. Turn on  
humidifier water supply and reset your humidity control when you return.  
CHECKING YOUR HUMIDIFIER OPERATION  
After winter startup or servicing, check the humidifier operation:  
1. Turn on the humidifier power and water supply.  
2. Turn H8908B Control to highest setting, or H1008A Control to test position; set  
thermostat to 10°F (6°C) above room temperature.  
NOTE: The H1008A Automatic Humidity Control stays in test mode for thirty minutes.  
Then it automatically resets to the maximum frost factor setting. If system  
checkout is not completed in thirty minutes, test mode can be extended by  
turning dial setting back and then returning it to test mode.  
3. Observe that water is flowing out of the drain hose.  
NOTE: The furnace blower must be on to activate the humidifier.  
4. Reset thermostat and H8908A Control to comfortable setting or H1008A  
Automatic Control to desired frost factor setting for automatic operation.
