Q.
Is it ok to put my humidifying discs in the dishwas-
her?
A. The manufacturer of this appliance does NOT recom­
mend it. The plates can only be placed in a dishwasher
where the temperature is no greater than 131°F / 55ºC.
If the temperature is any hotter than this, the plates will
melt. Place the plates in a sink filled with warm water
and white vinegar or EZCal and either let them soak or
spin the plates in this solution. Or, add white vinegar
or EZCal to the water in the base of the unit and let the
unit run for an hour to clean the plates.
It is good to have calcium deposits built up on the
plates as it will capture more particles from the air and
add more moisture to the air.
Q. Humidity level is not changing or does not reach
the desired humidity level
A. If the water tank needs refilling more than once per
day, the unit is working properly and the climatic con­
dition in the room has an influence on the humidity.
Reasons for low humidity level:
• air circulation is very high (air is fully exchanged se­
veral times per day – the humidifier needs to starts its
work from scratch)
• insulation of home (see air circulation)
• open space with high ceilings (not only the footage of
the room counts but also the height) – high­rise buil­
dings require more humidification.
• open windows – works similar to air circulation (if it
is very cold outside don’t open the window more than
2 times per day for 3 minutes)
• big difference between outside temperature and inside
temperature – the colder the air the less moisture it
is capable to hold and the more the air is heated up
the lower is the percentage of relative humidity (=
the amount of water vapor in the air, compared to the
amount the air could hold if it was totally saturated)
• position of the unit – if it is placed close to a door, win­
dow or air vent. This increases the air circulation.
Q. Can this unit be used all year round?
A. Yes, the unit can be used all year round. The unit pro­
duces relative humidity which means that the air will
only take as much moisture as it can hold. The unit
will not over­humidify the air.

Q.
What is EZCal?
A. There is a sample packet of EZCal included in the
packaging of your humidifier. EZCal is used for cleaning
and descaling any of the AIR­O­SWISS humidifiers and
cleans mineral build­up. EZCal is the only recommen­
ded cleaning and descaling solution. Do NOT use any
other cleaning solutions since it can damage the
product. Any use of cleaning solutions apart from EZCal
will void the warranty. Instructions for using are on the
packet. Only use 1 packet for 32oz of water. Do not
change the ratio. It can also be used for other humidi­
fier brands. Thoroughly rinse the base with tap water
and make sure no EZCal residues remain in the base!
EZCal is available at selected retail stores and online
