GENERAL INFORMATION
How Evaporative Humidifiers Work
Your new humidifier adds humidity to your home
by drawing dry air into the humidifier though the
large top grille, then moisturizing it as it passes
through the saturated wick. The air becomes hu-
midified, while any dust and hard water minerals
remain in the wick. Because the water is evapo-
rated, there is just clean, moist air.

Get the Most from Your Humidifier

When first setting up your humidifier, place it in a
central area where the air can flow evenly through-
out the home. Initially, it may take up to 48 hours of
operation for humidity levels to rise, depending on
outdoor air temperatures and the tightness of your
home's construction. To raise the humidity quickly,
run the humidifier on high during the day (lower the
fan speed at night, if needed, for sleeping.) More
helpful notes on location follow in the "Detailed
Set-Up" portion of this manual.

Wick Performance

As the evaporative wick traps accumulated
minerals from the water, its ability to absorb and
evaporate water decreases. We recommend
changing the wick at the beginning of every sea-
son and after every 30 to 60 days of operation
to maintain optimum performance. In hard water
areas, more frequent replacement may be nec-
essary to maintain your humidifier's efficiency.

CAUTIONS Regarding Water Additives

Only use cool, clean water to fill your humidifier
To maintain the wick's integrity and perfor-
•
mance, never add anything to the water
except Essick Air brand Bacteriostat for
evaporative humidifiers.
For best results do not use softened water.
•
If you only have softened water available,
you can use it, but mineral buildup will
occur more quickly. Use distilled or purified
water to extend the life of the wick.
Never add essential oils to the water. It can
•
damage the plastic seals and cause leaks.
Never add water treatment intended for
•
ultrasonic or rotobelt humidifiers.
