The estimated run time for this humidifier is based on average room
conditions. The actual run time of your humidifier is dependent on numerous
variables such as:
✔ Air exchange in the room where the humidifier is placed.
✔ Room construction of the room where the humidifier is placed.
✔ Temperature of the room where the humidifier is placed.
✔ Humidity levels in the room where the humidifier is placed.

• How do I remove film on water
tank?
✔ See Daily Maintenance instructions. Regular cleaning is recommended.
• How can I extend the run time?
✔ Run your unit on the lowest setting.
✔ If your unit has electronics, set it to your desired humidity level. The unit
will turn on and off, which will extend the run time.
✔ Fill the tank all the way full, place it on the base, let the water empty into
the base until it stops bubbling, then refill the tank fully again. This
ensures maximum water capacity and will extend run time.
