To make cleaning easier, the humidifier cabinet
should be empty and completely dried out. To
accomplish this, use the following method:
a. On the back side of the humidifier cabinet, find
the float retainer. In normal operating mode,
the retainer will be positioned in the bottom of
the slot in the cabinet. Push the retainer up to
the top slot position in the cabinet until it locks
in place. (See “Manual Dryout” section on page
9.)
b. Allow the humidifier to run until there is no
water left in the cabinet.
c. Unplug humidifier.
Replacement and Care of Filters (con’t)
NOTE:
There is a front and back orientation. To
position the filter housings correctly:
• Be sure that the spring tabs of filter
housings are towards front of cabinet.
• Align the lower portion of the filter assembly
over the six ribs located at the bottom rear
of the humidifier cabinet.
f. Position fan assembly onto the cabinet.
Make sure the fan venturi (lowest cylinder
section below the fan) is placed inside the
filter housing.
g. Replace water bottles.
h. Close the pivoting lid.
i. The unit is ready for use or to be stored
away for next season.
Cleaning and Maintenance
WARNING
: To reduce the risk of injury, fire or
damage to humidifier, use only cleaners
specifically recommended for humidifiers. Never
use flammable, combustible or poisonous
materials to clean your humidifier. To reduce the
risk of scalds and damage to humidifier, never put
hot water in humidifier.
CAUTION
: Local water purity varies from area to
area and under certain conditions water impurities
and airborne bacteria may promote the growth of
micro-organisms in the reservoir of the humidifier.
To retard bacteria growth that may cause odors
and be harmful to your health, use only MoistAIR
replacement filters. We also recommend using
EPA approved bacteriostat and humidifier cleaner.
NOTE:
If it is necessary to use approved
bacteriostat, follow directions correctly.
The bottles of the whole house humidifier will hold
2-3/8 gallons/9 litres of water each.
Step 1:
e. Replace the filter housing in the cabinet.
