In 1885 Albert Butz patented the furnace regulator and alarm. He eventually sold his business to W.R. Sweatt, and W.R. merged his business with Mark HONEYWELL, who was making water heater generators (since 1906) and in the grand ol' year of 1927, these two companies became one - The Minneapolis-HONEYWELL Regulator Co.
Honeywell History
The business became the largest producer of high-quality jeweled clocks. W.R. Sweatt became Chairman and Mark Honeywell became President. The company quickly grew as it began to tackle more challenges including industrial controls and indicators.
There is not a thermostat company in the world that is even coming close to the conveniences that the Honeywell company has provided as AFFORDABLY as they have to the end user. TruNorth has been working with DOZENS of Honeywell products for our entire existence. We have installed 1000's of thermostats over the years for our customers, and many customers have brands they request... Yet for us, we found Honeywell has been the easiest and most stable to work with.
We understand everyone has their favorites, and sometimes equipment requires certain types. With this in mind, the Honeywell company follows our core principles- Stand the test of time. Oh, and fun fact..1600 HONEYWELL parts went into making the first moon mission. So you can even say they stood the test of SPACE too!

Dehumidifiers
Honeywell Home dehumidifiers remove moisture from your home to help you maintain desired humidity levels. Excess humidity promotes mold growth and condensation, and may even contribute to increased energy usage.

Humidifiers help balance the humidity levels in your home for optimum comfort. Choose from whole-house humidifiers, evaporative humidifiers or steam humidifiers to fit your needs.
UV Air Purifiers
Today's airtight homes can trap odors from cooking and pets, even potentially harmful viruses and bacteria inside. Honeywell Home UV air purifiers work within your home's ductwork to reduce airborne particles while ultraviolet light addresses surface contaminants such as mold on air conditioning coils.

Specific models designed for humid or cold climates help eliminate heat loss or prevent excessive moisture from entering your home when running. Some models feature wireless installation and remote control.
