How To Extend the Life of Your Humidifier

Mineral buildup on the humidifier’s heating element is harmful to the unit. Therefore, routine maintenance is vital to the effectiveness and longevity of your humidifier.

The normal service interval will vary from one-to-three months (i.e., one or two cleanings during a typical humidification season, plus a thorough cleaning at the end of the season). The hardness of your water, your humidistat setting, weather conditions, home construction and the number of occupants in the home all affect the amount of time between cleanings.

NOTES: Due to the complexity of your Skuttle Steam Humidifier, we strongly recommend that you make arrangements with your pre- ferred HVAC or plumbing contractor to clean and service the unit at regular intervals.

Some 60-series models (F60-1 and F60-2)are equipped with a

Skuttle Automatic Flushing Timer, which can reduce maintenance significantly (see page 35). Nevertheless, it is wise to check humidifier for mineral buildup every two months or so during the humidification season, and to contact an HVAC dealer if necessary.)

Do not leave water in the humidifier over the warm-weather months.

If the home is left unattended for an extended period of time (e.g., when you are on vacation), turn the humidistat and the water supply to the humidifier off.

Skuttle Indoor Air Quality Products provide innovative solutions for enhancing indoor air quality in residential and commercial settings. Among their diverse offerings, the F60-2, F60-1 and other models stand out for their efficiency and advanced technologies designed to meet the needs of modern air management systems.

The Skuttle F60-2 and F60-1 are high-performance models that integrate seamlessly into existing HVAC systems. The F60-2 is particularly notable for its dual-purpose functions, combining both fresh air ventilation and economical energy recovery. This allows homeowners to enjoy improved air quality while maintaining energy efficiency, essential in today's environmentally conscious market. The F60-2 features a robust construction designed for durability, ensuring long-term performance and reduced maintenance needs.

One of the standout features of the F60 series is its advanced filtration system. Utilizing a MERV 8 filter, these devices effectively capture a wide range of airborne particles, including dust, dirt, pollen, and even certain bacteria, thereby providing cleaner air to occupants. The filters are easily replaceable, and the system’s design ensures minimal air resistance, promoting optimal airflow throughout the space.

The precise control mechanisms found in both the F60-2 and F60-1 contribute to their user-friendliness. With intuitive controls, users can adjust settings easily to meet their specific air quality needs. The integrated sensor technology monitors indoor air conditions in real-time, allowing for automatic adjustments to ventilation rates, ensuring that air quality is maintained consistently without the need for constant manual intervention.

In addition to excellent filtration and ease of use, Skuttle’s F60 models are designed with energy conservation in mind. They employ energy recovery ventilation (ERV) technology, which not only introduces fresh air into a building but does so while minimizing energy loss. By pre-conditioning incoming air with outgoing air temperature, these systems help stabilize indoor climates efficiently, leading to lower energy bills and reduced reliance on HVAC systems.

Durability, efficiency, and superior air cleaning capabilities make the Skuttle F60-2 and F60-1 ideal choices for anyone looking to improve indoor air quality while remaining energy-conscious. With their advanced features and technologies, these models represent a significant step forward in creating healthier indoor environments.
