The Aprilaire Model 400 bypass humidifier is the newest addition to the line. It uses new evaporative technology to minimize water use, eliminates standing water and provides comfortable humidified air throughout your home. Gravity pulls water down while the wicking action of the water panel draws it back to the top, using 100% of the water delivered to the unit. It’s the perfect choice for homes with septic systems, locations where a floor drain is not available or families interested in water conservation. Plus, its computer technology and innovative design makes it effortless to operate and simple to maintain. The Model 400 bypass humidifier is a high-capacity, water-conserving humidifier (0.70 gallons evaporated per hour), well suited to handle up to a 4,000 square foot, tightly constructed home.

Plus, the damper is conveniently labeled for summer and winter settings, allowing you to set it for the entire season with no guesswork involved. Just set it and let your humidifier run automatically and it will deliver up to 50% more humidity, compared to other competitive units on the market. It also can be installed in manual mode if needed. The Model 600 has an evaporative capacity of 0.70 gallons per hour and is ideal for a home with up to 4,000 square feet if it’s tightly constructed. We believe it’s the best performing bypass humidifier on the market!
