It depends on how the "h" word is pronounced. Use "a" before words where the "h" is pronounced as a consonant sound (e.g., "a house"). Use "an" before words where the "h" is silent and the word is pronounced starting with a vowel sound (e.g., "an hour").

When does an come before H?

An is used before h where the h is silent, as in an hour and an honor ( and in America, an herb). It may also be used before h-words not accented on the first syllable, as in an historian. This is because English resists an intervocalic h sound - there is no h sound in vehicle, for example - and so the h of historian may become silent in a phrase.
