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.
A. Do you leave your door open or closed when the
unit is running?
a. By leaving the door open, this allows moisture to leave
the room and go into other areas of the house. If you
would like the moisture to stay within one specific
room you should consider closing the door while the
unit is running.
b. Wood, leather, carpet, curtains, and other types of fa­
bric soak up a lot of moisture, thus not leaving enough
moisture for the air. If the window is left open, then
this allows moisture to escape the room. Another fac­
tor is a lot of times the unit is placed next to a heating
device. The idea is that the air blowing into the room
will quickly place moisture around the room. Unfortu­
nately, this concept does not work because the hot air
coming out of a vent will soak up most of the moisture,
and none of the air within the room will receive any.
Q. How much moisture do I need in my room?
A. Suggested humidity levels are between 40 – 60%.
Q. What are the effects of too little or too much
humidity?
A. Dry air can cause dry skin, static electricity, out of tune
musical instruments, increased levels of dust (dry air
causes dust to rise), damage to wooden objects (dry
out and eventually cracks appear), discomfort, sick­
ness, and dries out nasal membranes.
Over­humidifying the air can cause mold and wallpaper
to peel.
Q.
Why do I need a humidifier when I can just open
my window ?
A. The moisture level within the outside air is not high
enough to humidify a room. The colder the air the less
moisture it is capable to hold, and the more the air is
heated up the percentage of relative humidity is lower.
Relative humidity means the amount of water vapor in
the air, compared to the amount the air could hold if it
was totally saturated. The difference is higher between
outside and inside temperatures; more humidification
is needed because of the dry air in the room.
Q. Where should I place my humidifier?
A. The unit should be free­standing and not close to a
wall, window, door, or thermal bridge so that air may
circulate around the unit.
AOS 2055A FAQ’s
Q. If there is no water left in my water tank, for how
many hours will the water in base last?
A. An exact answer cannot be given for this as there are
many factors that depend on how long the water will
last for. It all depends on the size of the room, if it is
very dry, among other things to know how quickly wa­
ter will evaporate into the air. If you notice that there is
no water left in the water tank, it is always a good idea
to refill the tank to have extra water available.
Q. Red LED light is illuminated – what does it mean?
A. The red LED light on the appliance shows you when
the unit should be refilled with water. If the water level
falls below the minimum level, the appliance automa­
tically switches off. The red light appears on the dis­
play. When water is added, the red LED changes to
green and the appliance continues operating.
Please note: When lifting the upper part off the housing,
the appliance also switches off. In this case, the red
LED will also appear on the display. Only when the
upper part is replaced on the base does the red LED
(E) disappear and the appliance resumes operation.
Q. I fill the water tank, and when I place it back on
the unit all of the water goes into the base. Why is
that?
A. Water is needed in the base of the unit for the removal
of particles from the air, and for the humidification of
the air. The first time the tank is filled up and placed
on the unit, all of the water will go into the base of the
unit. The water tank acts as a reserve, and may be
filled up a second time to have extra water available.
