TROUBLE SHOOTING
About the UNIT
Why isn‘t there enough moisture in my room?
•How often do you run the unit? If the unit is only run at night, then during the day the moisture level will drop if moisture is not constantly added to the air.
•Wood, leather, carpet, curtains, and other types of fabric soak up a lot of moisture, thus not leaving enough moisture in the air. If the window is left open, then this allows mois- ture to escape from the room. A common reason is that the unit is placed next to a heating device in order to distribute quickly the moisture around the room with the hot air. Un- fortunately, this concept does not work because the hot air coming out of a vent will soak up most of the moisture, and none of the air within the room will receive any.
Should I leave my door open or closed when the unit is running?
•Leaving the door open allows moisture to leave the room and go into other areas of the house. If you would like the moisture to stay within one specific room you should con- sider closing the door while the unit is running.
How much moisture do I need in my room?
• Suggested humidity level is between
What are the effects of too little or too much humidity?
•Dry air can cause dry skin, static electricity, out of tune musi- cal instruments, increased levels of dust (dry air causes dust to rise), damage to wooden objects (dry out and eventually cracks appear), discomfort, sickness, and dries out nasal membranes.
Why do I need a humidifier when I can just open my window?
•The moisture level within the outside air is not high enough to humidify a room. The colder the air the less moisture it is capable to hold, and the more the air is heated up the percentage of relative humidity is lower. Relative humidity means the amount of water vapor in the air, compared to the amount the air could hold if it was totally saturated. The difference is higher between outside and inside tempera- tures; more humidification is needed because of the dry air in the room
Where should I place my humidifier?
•The unit should be
If my unit runs dry is that ok?
•If there is a possibility that you will be unable to add water to the unit and it will run dry, turn the unit off before you leave. The unit will not be able to humidify the air if there is no water in it, and you may notice a foul odor.
Can this unit be used all year round?
•Yes, the unit can be used all year round. The unit produces relative humidity which means that the air will only take as much moisture as it can hold. The unit will not
Is it ok to put the removable water base in the dishwasher?
•Do not place the removable water base in the dishwasher. The removable water base will melt. Fill the removable water base with the prescribed ratio of water an EZCal as described on the packaging of EZCal. EZCal will remove mineral deposits from the removable water base.
Can I use distilled water?
•Yes you can. The evaporator does not need the minerals in the tap water to function properly.
