Aprilaire website just shows a 600, I didn't see a 600M ... is it manual and automatic depending on what you use to control it?? I want to hook it up to a Honeywell IAQ. Others here are packaged with digital control is this the same humidifier minus...

I believe that is correct. I have the manual control and prefer it. You only adjust it a few times a year. One less computerized thing to worry about breaking.

i agree with other responder its a humidistat i dont think you can make it work based on temperture .also i dont think the remote can be used as a control i think it just tells you the temp and humidity of the remote location(at least i couldnt see how to use the remote as a way of activating)

It uses model # 1041. The box for filter model # 1041 does not state that it is for use in this humidifier, but the filter that came with the unit when it was new is a # 1041. It would have been nice if that information was part the product spec.

I do agree that a large console humidifier might work better - but I have a very large bedroom and live in a dry winter climate - it does a great job for me. I also have radiator heat and it gets so dry without the humidifier. I purchased a small temp/humidifier display and this Honeywell raises my humidity quickly - within an hour. It will empty completely for me in a 24 hour period. Hope that helps.

Mine looks like the picture but mine is not digital. Mine does keep a certain humidity level in the house depending on where I set the dial. A red light comes on when the tank is empty. I have used this for the last five years and so :-) of buy another if it goes out.

Im sorry but I don't recall and moved since installation. I would call Aprilaire-I do recommend the unit. Easy install and worked well.

David O.:I installed my Aprilaire 700 humidifier on the main duct and mounted the Model 60 Humidistat on the return duct just before the furnace filter. The distance shouldn't be a factor at all.

smallappliance.com I ordered a new digital control unit last spring. Great service!!! Use the small reference number on the very bottom of the silver tag located on the rear of heating unit. I was trying for over a year using the series number F-36C, and getting nowhere. The folks at smallappliance straightened me out on the phone. It cost about $70.00, but got a 1st time customer discount & free shipping. I think I wound up spending about $60.00. Hope this helps.

We aren't sure. My husband says the manual is online. The control is mechanical (dial). We are loving it!! It took our humidity in our basement from 80% to 38% rapidly!

Hi, I installed this in my son's house last fall. It has a separate humidistat control, which I installed in the return duct, about six feet from the furnace. It responds to the relative humidity in the house, which we set to 45%. Once set, it maintained an even level of humidity throughout the winter. My son & his family were very happy. No maintenance, except to replace the filter pad this fall. His house is about 1800 square feet. I give it 5 stars!

240 works much better. 120 with a plug cord cannot by electrical code be installed by an electrician. .only hard wired. If it came with a plug, he can plug it in. If it didn't, he only can hard wire it. 240 volt is available at the furnace, so he can use that to efficiently wire the humidifier. The 120 option won't boil the water quick enough to run long enough on the heat cycle unless you run the fan continuously after the heat has shut off. This unit works best by far on 240 volt.

I have this model and it works well. Changing the media pad is much easier than with the drum type and there is no motor to fail. All humidifiers will require periodic cleaning, more or less frequently depending on the mineral content of your water supply. In my case, I change the inexpensive pad once a season by replacing it with a new one. This size should be adequate for your size home, provided it is reasonably well insulated.

I wish I knew. I have this and the manual says absolutely nothing about how to set this in dehumidifier mode....nor do I see anything on the display about % of humidity. Sounds like BS to me. I'm probably going to get a separate dehumidifier instead...considering the fact that dehumidifiers display the amount of humidity in the air. I have no idea why NewAir listed this as a dehumidifier. I understand that AC mode can serve as a slight dehumidifier, but that's not so concentrated on that function.

The humidify auto on/off doesn't work. Might just be my unit. I like the unit because it is quiet and has 2 speeds. It was suppose to be 35% humidity on this unit.

Good question. I couldn't find any recommendations. After some research, it shows that this one is recommended for 1000 sq ft to 1200 sq ft. Found on the Target website (Couldn't find anything on Vick's site). I also checked the iallergy website and they rate this as a small room humidifier based on its capacity. (if used for 24 hours, a 2 gal would be sufficient for 250 sq ft.) We use ours in roughly a 120 sq ft bedroom with the inhalant and it works great for the 10-12 hours it is on the '1' fan setting. It doesn't empty the tank during that time either but does come close if you run the fan on '2' over night. It is across the room from the bed and we turn off the overhead fan. The unit is quiet too. Hope that helps.

Brad's answer, unfortunately, is wrong. Joe is right. I just now set mine using Joe's tip. The key is that you have to arrow down and Next through the prefs to find the Automatic changeover choice. Seems kind of lame on Honeywell's part.
