Make sure that the humidifier pad you purchase matches the humidifier that you currently have. The GA10 Honeywell Humidifier Filter works for Honeywell Humidifier models HE220 & HE225. And, the GA35 Honeywell Humidifier Filter works for Honeywell Humidifier models HE260, HE265, HE360, &HE365. When you have the proper pad, simply pull out the used pad and replace it with the new one. Pads should be replaced every 3 to 6 months depending on usage. And do not throw away your old humidifier pad- just brush it off and the aluminum is recyclable.

To assure that no wires are damaged or not functioning properly during installation, you can use a Suntouch LoudMouth Meter. This meter will produce a loud noise if anything is wrong with the wiring during the installation process. If there is no noise, you will know that the wires are good and can continue with the installation of your warm floors.

The only way to open and close the valves on your MANABLOC Manifold is with a Valve T-Handle. At less than a dollar each, it's usually recommended to pick up an extra or two. This way, you can save the stress of looking all over for this small, plastic piece if you happen to lose the one that comes with your manifold.

If you have a defective zone valve, the problem could be in the unit, or isolated just in the head. As a less expensive alternative to replacing the entire zone valve (if your problem is in the head, of course), you can purchase a Zone Valve Replacement Head, a twist on part which is easy to install and maintain.

All systems using gas require a gas regulator in order to assure proper gas pressure levels. Most gas fired units have a regulator built in, but it is best to check before completing your installation. Without proper gas regulation, the pressure in your system can build to dangerous levels. To size your gas regulator, you will need to know what pipe size it will be connecting to, the BTU load of your system, gas pressure coming into the system, and which style you prefer.

A pair of slip-joint pliers are the best way to secure the tool down to the bolt and make a fast and tight fitting with minimal effort. Instead of repositioning your pliers, the slip joint mechanism in slip joint pliers allows you to keep the tool in tightly around the bolt while making the connection.

Sometimes where your Honeywell thermostat is located is not the best place to read the temperature and regulate the heat in your home based on that. If this is your situation, and you cannot move the thermostat, the best thing to do is get a remote sensor. Honeywell makes remote indoor sensors that are wired to connect to the thermostat up to 250 feet away. This way, you keep your thermostat where it is, but get temperature readouts from somewhere else in your home where the temperature is more constant (or more representative of the rest of the home, or just where you want the temperature to be read from).
