IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

READ BEFORE USING YOUR HUMIDIFIER

1)This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized 120-volt AC, 15 amp outlet, and only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. If an extension cord must be used, it should also accept the wide blade plug and meet this electrical rating.

2)Do not place the cord under rugs, near loose drapes, in traffic areas, nor near heat sources or combustible materials.

3)Do not use the humidifier if the cord is damaged.

4)Always unplug the power cord before filling, cleaning, servicing, or when the unit is not in use.

5)Care must be used when filling. Remove top grille and fill through the left opening between wick and sidewall of cabinet. Any water spilled on chassis must be dried before energizing humidifier.

6)This humidifier is UL listed with Bemis by Essick Air brand evaporative wicks in place. To maintain your UL rating, see your service center for all repairs.

7)It is very important that cleaning solutions such as bleach, anti-bacteria treatment or descaler, which could be used to clean the cabinet, are not sprayed or applied to the chassis assembly. These solutions can cause serious electrical malfunction of the humidifier.

INTRODUCTION

Your Bemis by Essick Air evaporative humidifier adds invisible moisture to your home by moving dry inlet air through a saturated wick. As air moves through the wick, the water evaporates into the air, leaving behind any white dust, minerals, or dissolved and suspended solids. Because the water is evaporated, there is no messy mist or spray and no white dust, just clean and invisible moist air.

As the evaporative wick traps accumulated minerals from the water, its ability to absorb and evaporate water decreases. We recommend changing the wick at the beginning of every season. In hard water areas, more frequent replacement may be necessary to maintain your humidifier’s efficiency.

Use only Bemis by Essick Air brand replacement wicks and chemicals. To order parts, wicks and chemicals call 1-800-547-3888. The 500 Series humidifiers use Bemis by Essick Air wick #1040. Only the Bemis by Essick Air evaporative wick guarantees the certified output of your humidifier. Use of wicks other than Bemis by Essick Air brand will void your warranty as well as the certification of output and may reduce the efficiency and output of your humidifier.

CAUTION: Do NOT position the unit directly in front of a hot air duct or radiator.

ASSEMBLY, FILLING & OPERATION

ASSEMBLY

1) Unpack humidifier from carton.

2)Remove all packaging material, wicks, etc. from cabinet.

3)The wicks are located by four pairs of ribs in the bottom of the cabinet. Locate the two wicks. Insert them by dropping each once down into the locating ribs (see illustration).

4)After inserting the wicks, place the transition molding on top of them, flange side up. The notch along one side of the transition goes to the back of the cabinet.

5)Place the chassis unit into the cabinet, with the switch to the back and hang it on to the mounts at the front and back inside the cabinet.

FILLING

6)Before replacing the top grille, fill the reservoir with water. DO NOT POUR WATER OVER THE ELECTRICAL CHASSIS. Fill the cabinet only through the opening between the left wick and the cabinet sidewall, to the level marked “FILL TO HERE” on the left side rear wall of the cabinet. If water spills on the chassis, it must be allowed to dry completely before energizing the humidifier. If you have only softened water available in your home, you can use it, but you will notice a build up of minerals on the evaporative wicks much sooner. Reservoir capacity is 3.0 gallons. DO NOT OVERFILL.

The Essick Air 526 302 and 526 300 are advanced humidifiers designed to enhance indoor air quality in homes and commercial spaces. Both models come equipped with innovative features that set them apart in the market, ensuring optimal humidity levels while promoting comfort and health.

One of the standout features of the Essick Air 526 series is its evaporative technology. This process involves drawing in dry air and passing it through a saturated wick filter. As the air flows, it absorbs moisture, which is then distributed back into the atmosphere. This not only increases humidity levels but does so without the risk of over-humidifying or creating an environment conducive to mold growth.

The Essick Air 526 302 model boasts a robust humidistat. This integrated sensor continuously monitors room humidity levels and automatically adjusts the fan speed to maintain the desired moisture content. This smart functionality helps save energy while ensuring a consistently comfortable environment.

Another notable feature is the large water tank capacity. The 526 302 can hold up to 3.5 gallons of water, allowing for extended operation without frequent refills. Coupled with its efficient evaporation rate, users can enjoy uninterrupted moisture for longer periods, making it particularly advantageous for larger rooms or spaces that require sustained humidity.

The design of both models is sleek and modern, allowing them to blend seamlessly into various home decor styles. Additionally, they include convenient features such as easy-carry handles for portability and a quick-release tank for hassle-free refills. Maintenance is also simplified with accessible filter compartments, enabling users to replace filters without difficulty.

Both models are equipped with adjustable fan speeds, allowing the user to customize the humidity output based on personal preferences or specific environmental needs. With a noise level low enough to prevent disruption during daily activities or sleep, the Essick Air humidifiers are ideal for use in bedrooms, living rooms, or offices.

In conclusion, the Essick Air 526 302 and 526 300 offer a comprehensive solution for improving indoor air quality. Their advanced technologies, user-friendly features, and stylish design make them an excellent choice for anyone looking to enhance their living or working environment.
