Cleaning Instructions

Proper cleaning of your Evaporative Vortex Humidifier is essential to the air quality and performance of your unit. The frequency in which your Humidifier will need to be cleaned will vary, depending on use, water hardness, and outside environmental factors. It is recommended, assuming average use, to thouroughly clean the unit several times throughout the season, or when algae, mineral deposits or other particles begin to form.

To Disinfect:

When to Replace: Many factors affect the frequency in which the Filters will need to be replaced - including amount of use, water hardness, and outside environmental factors. For heavy use, using the unit continuously, we recommend replacing the Filters approximately once a month. For lighter use, using the unit intermittently, we recommend replacing the Filters every two months.

The Filters will need to be replaced earlier if the Filters become hard or are no longer absorbing the water effectively. Replace Filters with only genuine Vornado® brand Filters. While other brands may fit our units, these Filters do not carry the same quality and life as our own and can diminish the Humidifier’s performance.
