Aprilaire Manual Bypass Evaporative Humidifier - 312148272

Product Description

The Aprilaire Model 500 Humidifier is economical and a proven performer designed for small to mid-sized homes. Our evaporative humidifiers work by piping water into the distribution tray located at the top of the humidifier. The water is uniformly distributed across the width of the tray and through a scientifically designed system of outlets. It flows by gravity over the water panel evaporator. Dry, hot air from the HVAC system is moved through the moisture-laden water panel evaporator. Natural evaporation takes place, the water is turned to vapor and the humidified air is circulated throughout your home.Optimizes humidity levels in your homeHelps reduce susceptibility to colds, the flu, and other respiratory ailmentsIncreased humidity allows you to reduce the thermostat during winter months and save on energy costsPrevents drying and cracking of hardwood floors, woodwork, and furniture
