I bought this to replace a 7 year old auto humidistat by Aprilaire( with OA compensation); old one still worked but did not have the furnace blower fan actuation feature.This furnace is a new high efficiency furnace with short heating cycles, consequently humidity at times was never satisfied in the space. Now, no problem, as unit operates blower if humidity is required regardless of thermostat calling for heat. VERY pleased with performance!

Excellent directions with unit and good desc. above of the unit.

One word of caution--may be difficult for aveage homeowner to install as furnace & thermostat wiring must be modified and, in most cases, a constant 24vac power source must also be installed to operate the solenoid valve for the humidifier unit.

This works well, no complaints. However, if you do not have it installed by a professional HVAC contractor Aprilaire will not honor the warranty.

Best Deals for Aprilaire 60 Humidistat With Blower Activation

I installed this myself and had quite a time of it due to a really sloppy install originally by the contractor that installed the humidifer. I eventually had to rewire the whole thing. The do it yourself forums were a huge help as was Aprilaire support. If you want to read my install adventure you can see it hereAgain Aprilaire support was top notch and helped fix the bad wiring job by the original contractor. The unit works so much better than the old one. I like the automatic fan feature. Yes it does cause a lot of water to be used but it's really controlling the humidity in my house now. I've been able to completely get rid of the supplemental unit I had been using.

Honest reviews on Aprilaire 60 Humidistat With Blower Activation

I installed the Aprilaire 58 four years ago. Basically the 60 replaces the older 58. This winter I noticed that it felt really dry. I checked the display on the humidistat and only two little lines on the display were lit. The backlight was working and when I moved the dial it seemed like the number was changing. But since only two lines of the digits work, it was hard to tell. So I have been checking the drain tube below the humidifier and it has been dry. I think I need a new humidistat. Anyone else have these things fail? It worked flawlessly for 4 years.
