How to Clean

The evaporative, wick-type humidifier adds moisture to the air in the form of water vapor, by using a fan to force air through a moistened-filter medium.

To ensure the proper and efficient operation of your humidifier, the following cleaning and maintenance procedures must be followed.

Failure to follow the recommended care and maintenance instructions could lead to a buildup of micro-organisms, including algae, bacteria, and mildew, which may lead to respiratory or other ailments in some individuals.
