TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR COMFORT BY ADDING MOISTURE TO DRY, INDOOR AIR.
CARRIER DELIVERS ENHANCED INDOOR COMFORT WITH HIGH-PERFORMANCE HUMIDIFIERS.

CONTROL STRATEGY

As part of the Carrier indoor air quality strategy of Control, Filter and Refresh, controlling the humidity in your home is ver y 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, stuff y 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 eff iciency and effectiveness of your heating system. All of these problems can be alleviated with the help of a Carrier humidif ier. Offering three different humidif iers, Carrier can provide enhanced indoor comfort, air quality and system eff iciency with a model designed to f it your needs.

COMFORT CONTROL

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 idea l atmosphere for the growth of bacteria and viruses. Viral infections such as a cold or f lu are easier to contract or pass to others under low humidity conditions. These problems can be controlled through proper humidif ication with a Carrier whole-home humidif ier. Keeping your home properly humidif ied can a lso help minimize the dust mite population and the growth of mold. Each of our humidif iers comes standard with our humidistat control, or you can upgrade to automatic humidity control with our HumidiTrac™ or Thermidistat ™ Control options.

EFFICIENCY

A Carrier humidif ier enhances your ability to control system eff iciency 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 humidif ier allows you to remain comfortable at a lower heating temperature for lower energy use and greater operating eff iciency. To help maintain optimum performance of your Carrier humidif ier, we recommend yearly replacement of the evaporator pad and routine cleaning of the drain.

CARRIER QUALITY

Carrier humidif iers are equipped with many standard features.
Depending on which model best matches your system, a Carrier humidif ier will deliver between 12 and 18 gallons of moisture per day.
Carrier humidif iers are packaged in a thermoplastic cover with UV inhibitors. Carrier is the f irst to offer a humidif ier casing designed to resist damage f rom ultraviolet light sources. This corrosion-resistant cover also withstands the stress of high temperatures and incidental impact for years of good looks and functionality.
As warm, dry air passes through the humidifier pad, moisture is absorbed into the air and distributed throughout your home for a more comfortable indoor environment.

A Carrier humidifier helps protect your furnishings for years by preventing damage due to dryness, cracking and separating.

You can avoid those annoying shocks of static electricity this winter by adding a Carrier humidifier to your comfort system.
These features, along with our hard-earned reputation for delivering top- quality products make choosing a Carrier humidif ier an easy choice. Once you choose Carrier, your local Comfort Control Specialist will analyze your system and help select the perfect humidif ier model for controlling your indoor comfort.
RELATIVE HUMIDITY COMPARISON

Maintaining optimum humidity in your home can provide relief from dry nasal passages, static electricity, and dry, itchy skin. Proper humidity control is also important for minimizing the growth of bacteria, molds, viruses and dust mites.
CARRIER HUMIDIFIERS OFFER AUTOMATIC SOLUTIONS TO DRY INDOOR AIR.

CHOICES

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 a like. From the  very basic to the very sophisticated, we offer three options for humidity system control.
HUMIDISTAT
The humidistat provides accurate, manual control of humidit y levels. When conditions change, simply adjust the control for more or less humidit y. Simple to set and easy to use, the humidistat comes standard with ever y humidif ier we offer.

HUMIDITRAC™
For automatic humidity control, you can upgrade to a Carrier HumidiTrac control. With HumidiTrac, set your desired humidit y 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 humidif ier provide 50% more moisture than standard humidif ier/control combinations.

THERMIDISTAT™ 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 humidit y levels, then adjusts system operation for the best combination of comfort and energy eff iciency.

**MODEL LFP

1. Easy maintenance and cleaning of the treated expanded aluminum pad ensures top performance. Pad can be removed easily through the access door on the front of the humidifier.
2. Quiet operation is provided by the precision-tuned fan and motor combination. The fan efficiently draws dry air through the evaporator pad, turning water into water vapor.
3. Attractive and corrosion Resistant thermoplastic cover is designed to withstand high temperatures and impact for long-lasting durability. UV-resistant  plastic will not deteriorate with exposure to ultraviolet light sources.
4. Optimum moisture distribution is measured and controlled through our combined solenoid valve and water distribution system.

WARRANTY
Carrier offers the best humidif ier warranties in the industry. The entire unit is backed by a f ive-year parts limited warranty. Extended warranty programs are also available. Ask your Carrier dealer for details.

The Carrier IdealHumidity System works all day and all night to control both temperature AND humidity for the ultimate in comfort all year long. Other systems rely on heating or cooling to control humidity. IdealHumidity from Carrier is the ONLY system that controls humidity even when the indoor temperature does not require heating or cooling operation. Carrier humidifiers can be a part of an IdealHumidity System with the addition of a variable speed furnace or fan coil and a Thermidistat Control. Ask your Carrier dealer for details.
