Humidifier

DYI Homeowner purchased a humidifier from AZ July 8th 2024 and it was installed by homeowner December 15th. the humidifier was new but the package had been open and most of the plumbing parts were missing.

The humidifier works well to raise the humidity but the waste water cost me over $20 each month. Hope to put in a catch basin and a different pump next year.

Project

Install Humidifier – Completed

Humidifier Honeywell HE360D has been purchased. Ready to install onto the existing furnace.
