Info & Guides

Description

Breathe comfortable, humidified air in your home with the General Aire Model 4400A Fan-Powered Evaporative Humidifier. With maximum humidity output, it fights back against dry air thanks to its efficient, fan-powered capabilities and automatic digital controls and humidistat. This evaporative humidifier is capable of covering up to 4,400 square feet.

Note: This humidifier must be installed by a licensed contractor.

Digital Control Humidistat

The GFX5 Automatic Digital Humidistat is included with the General Aire 4400A and is packed with convenient features:

  • Wi-Fi Enabled: Allows for manual control or remote control via Wi-Fi.
  • Installation: For Maximum Humidity Output, install the 4400A on the Vertical Supply Plenum with a Plenum Opening of 12"W x 12.5" H.
  • Automatic Controls: In Automatic Mode, the GFX5 will adjust the humidity based on the outdoor temperature, lowering humidity in cold weather to reduce condensation.
  • Simple Maintenance: Change the GA35 Vapor Pad by lifting off the cover, and simply swinging the hinged door open.
  • Extended Humidity Range: In Auto Mode, the control range is 10%-60% RH, and in Manual Mode the control range extends to 10%-75% RH.

Fan-Assisted Humidifier

While most evaporative humidifiers operate with bypass technology—meaning the humidifier relies only on the furnace blowing the air through the ductwork and into the humidifier—this General Aire fan-powered humidifier includes a quiet, cross-flow fan.

You get more for your dollar with a fan-powered humidifier, as the fan pushes air through faster and more efficiently, saving you money and providing up to 19 gallons of moisture per day.

Additional Features

  • Large Coverage Area: This General Aire evaporative humidifier covers homes up to 4,400 square feet.
  • Contemporary Design: Featuring an innovative, space-saving design, this whole-house humidifier is lightweight and easy to install.
  • Installation Location: The humidifier must be installed on a vertical supply plenum.
  • Vapor Pad Replacement: Designed with a sturdy “pull-apart” frame, the cover lifts off easily and snaps in place for a quick replacement routine. The hinged door is removable for full and easy access to the vapor pad.
  • Strong Construction: General Aire uses UV-stable automotive-grade plastic for this low-profile humidifier.
  • Water Supply: A stainless steel tube distributes cold or hot water from the direct line hookup.
  • Safety Switch: A shut-off switch installed on the hinged door turns off the unit's power when the door is opened.

Sylvane's Expert Take

If you're a homeowner who wants remote control over whole-house humidity in a home up to 4,400 square feet, the General Aire 4400A pairs with the Wi-Fi-enabled GFX5 humidistat. It mounts to a vertical supply plenum, so confirm your ductwork fits that orientation first.

A quiet cross-flow fan delivers up to 19 gallons of moisture daily, and the vapor pad's pull-apart frame and removable hinged door make seasonal swaps quick, with a safety switch cutting power whenever that door opens. For remote-controlled, higher-capacity whole-house humidity, the 4400A is a smart step up.
