CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning your humidifier regularly helps eliminate odors and bacterial and fungal growth.
Ordinary household bleach is a good disinfectant and can be used to wipe out the humidifier base and
bottle/reservoir after cleaning.
We recommend cleaning your humidifier at least once a week to maintain optimum environmental
conditions from your humidifier.
We also recommend using Essick Air Bacteriostat Treatment each time you refill your
humidifier to eliminate bacterial growth. Add bacteriostat according to the instructions on the bottle.
Please call 1-800-547-3888 to order Bacteriostat Treatment reference part#1970.
