HUMIDIFIER CLEANING
1. The humidifier tank should be
cleaned once a week when used
continuously. For best results in hard
water areas use distilled water in the
water tank.
2. Drain all remaining water from tank
through the drain hole on the side of the
heater.
3. Add new water and thoroughly rinse
the tank, then drain at once.
4. Refill only when unit is going to be
used.
5. If the humidifier sputters and emits
water droplets from the filler port, mineral
solids have begun to clog the system.
This can be relieved by adding vinegar to
the rinse water.
A mixture of one tablespoon of vinegar to
one quart of water will disolve most
mineral build-up. Allow the vinegar water
to “work” for a few minutes before
draining.
6. Rinse the tank with plain water after
cleaning with vinegar.
