About White Dust
Use of high mineral content hard water may cause a white mineral residue to
accumulate on surfaces in the room near the humidifier. The mineral residue is
commonly called "white dust." The higher the mineral content (or, the harder your
water is), the greater the potential for white dust. The white dust is not caused by a
defect in the humidifier. It is caused only by minerals suspended in the water.
How and Why To Use Demineralization Cartridges:
The HoMedics demineralization cartridge will help reduce the potential for white
dust, a deposit of minerals left behind from using hard water in your humidifier.
The cartridge should be replaced every 30 – 40 fillings. The cartridge may need
to be replaced more often if you are using very hard water. Replace the cartridge
when you notice an increase in white dust build-up. If white dust still forms
around the humidifier after a new cartridge has been installed, consider using
distilled water. To purchase new demineralization cartridges, model # HUM-
HDDC4-6CTM, go back to the retailer (where you purchased your humidifier), or
visit www.homedics.com
If you live in an area with hard water, or use a water softener, we
recommend using distilled water for better results from your humidifier.
Never use water softening additives in your humidifier.
