Troubleshooting How Your Humidifier Works Trouble Your new humidifier is designed to satisfy home humidity requirements through the principle of evaporation of water in the air. Once the filter becomes saturated, air is drawn in, passes through the filter and moisture is absorbed into the air. All evaporation occurs in the humidifier so any residue remains in the filter. This natural process of evaporation virtually eliminates white dust.
Positioning the Unit Step 3 Bi-Weekly Maintenance Removing Scale 1. Fill the humidifier base with water and add one 8-ounce cup of white vinegar. Let solution stay 20 minutes. 2. Clean all interior surfaces with a soft brush. Dampen a soft cloth with white vinegar and wipe out the base to remove scale. 3. Rinse thoroughly with clean warm water to remove scale and cleaning solution. Disinfecting Base 1. Pour 1/2 gallon of water and 1/2 teaspoon chlorine bleach into the base.
Cleaning and Maintenance Step 3. Water Fill WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or shock hazard, do not pour or spill water into control or motor area. If controls get wet, let them dry completely and have unit checked by qualified service personnel before plugging in. WARNING: To reduce the risk of shock, always unplug humidifier before cleaning or servicing. If humidifier is not unplugged, fan could start after housing is removed.
Filter Replacement and Care CAUTION: To help retard bacteria growth and keep maximum efficiency, the filter should be replaced at least once per season, or more often under hard water conditions. Use MAF2 replacement filter. WARNING: To reduce the risk of shock or injury from moving parts, always unplug humidifier before removing or replacing any parts. Replace the evaporative wicking filter at least once per humidification season or more depending on water conditions in your area. Filter Replacement 1.
