As part of the Carrier indoor air quality strategy of Control,
Filter and Refresh, controlling the humidity in your home is very
important! You may not realize this, but in many cases, the
air inside your home is drier than a desert. Dry, indoor air is often the
culprit for such common problems as itchy or cracked skin, eye irritation,
dry, stuffy nasal passages and, damaged woodwork in your home. In addition
to these comfort issues, dry indoor air can increase the possibilities of
catching or transmitting cold and flu viruses and can reduce the
efficiency and effectiveness of your heating system. All of these problems
can be alleviated with the help of a Carrier humidifier. Offering three
different humidifiers, Carrier can provide enhanced indoor comfort, air
quality and system efficiency with a model designed to fit your
needs. |

 Adding moisture to the air
inside your home improves the quality of the air that you breathe. In
addition to the comfort issues, dry air can be the ideal atmosphere for
the growth of bacteria and viruses. Viral infections such as a cold or flu
are easier to contract or pass to others under low humidity conditions.
These problems can be controlled through proper humidification with a
Carrier whole-home humidifier. Keeping your home properly humidified can
also help minimize the dust mite population and the growth of mold. Each
of our humidifiers comes standard with our humidistat control, or you can
upgrade to automatic humidity control with our HumidiTracTM or ThermidistatTM Control options.

A Carrier humidifier enhances your ability to control system
efficiency and effectiveness. As the moisture from indoor air
evaporates, the temperature in your home feels colder. In the winter, that
means you will likely turn up the thermostat to feel comfortable. As a
result, your system will use extra energy. By putting moisture back into
the air, a humidifier allows you to remain comfortable at a lower heating
temperature for lower energy use and greater operating efficiency. To help
maintain optimum performance of your Carrier humidifier, we recommend
yearly replacement of the evaporator pad and routine cleaning of the
drain.

Carrier humidifiers are equipped with many standard
features. Depending on which model best matches your system, a Carrier
humidifier will deliver between 12 and 18 gallons of moisture per day.
Carrier humidifiers are packaged in a thermoplastic cover with UV
inhibitors. Carrier is the first to offer a humidifier casing designed
to resist damage from ultraviolet light sources. This corrosion-resistant
cover also withstands the stress of high temperatures and incidental
impact for years of good looks and functionality.
These features, along with our hard-earned reputation for delivering
top-quality products make choosing a Carrier humidifier an easy
choice. Once you choose Carrier, your local Comfort Control Specialist
will analyze your system and help select the perfect humidifier model for
controlling your indoor comfort.

Carrier puts you in control of your comfort with three distinct
options for maintaining proper humidity in your home. We understand
that not all homes - and homeowners - are alike. From the very basic to
the very sophisticated, we offer three options for humidity system
control.
HUMIDISTAT
 The humidistat provides accurate, manual control of humidity
levels. When conditions change, simply adjust the control for more or less
humidity. Simple to set and easy to use, the humidistat comes standard
with every humidifier we offer.
|
|
HUMIDITRACTM
 For automatic humidity control, you can upgrade to a
Carrier HumidiTrac control.
 With HumidiTrac, set your desired humidity level, and
then walk away. This system responds to changes in outdoor temperatures,
taking about 86,000 readings per day, and automatically adjusts the
relative humidity in your home for maximum comfort. HumidiTrac can help
your humidifier provide 50% more moisture than standard humidifier/control
combinations.
|
THERMIDISTATTM CONTROL
 The patented Carrier Thermidistat Control
combines the features of a deluxe thermostat and an automatic humidistat
to deliver comfort control no other manufacturer offers. This optional
upgrade monitors both temperature and humidity levels, then adjusts system
operation for the best combination of comfort and energy
efficiency.
