General Humidifier Questions Q. Why isn’t there enough moisture in my room? A. How often do you run the unit? If the unit is only run at night, then during the day the moisture level will drop if moisture is not constantly added to the air. Q. Do you leave your door open or closed when the unit is running? A. a) By leaving the door open, this allows moisture to leave the room and go into other areas of the house.

In order to fill the tank, it must be turned upside down. The cartridge is placed on the water tank cap. Do not pour water in the tube which is the mist outlet. Q. White dust is emitted from the unit A. White dust particles are minerals that are broken up in tiny pieces by the ultrasonic process.
