5) Install new wicks and clean the humidifier before next season begins.
Use only Bemis by Essick Air evaporative wicks to ensure the manufac-
turer's rated output for your humidifier. Use of a wick other than a Bemis
by Essick Air evaporative wick will void your warranty and may reduce
the efficiency and output of your humidifier. Call 1-800-547-3888 to
order. Alternatively, an order form is located in the back of this manual.
Troubleshooting
1. Unit does not operate at any speed setting:
• Polarized cord must be fully inserted in wall outlet. Turn the humidis-
tat control fully clockwise.
• Check the airflow path. Are there any obstructions preventing move-
ment of the fan blade?
• The motor contains a temperature-sensing fuse. If the motor becomes
overheated, the fuse may trip. Unplug the unit and contact the near-
est authorized service station. DO NOT ATTEMPT to repair the motor
yourself.
2. Not enough humidity:
• This is an evaporative humidifier. The humidity is invisible.
• The four open holes on the front of the cover are required for proper
humidistat operation. They must be kept unobstructed and clean.
• Check the condition of the evaporative wicks and the air cleaning fil-
ters. The evaporative wicks should be damp. If they are dry, refer to
the "Controls and Operation" section for the correct position of the
wicks. If the wicks are clogged, replace them.
• The water bottles may be empty – refill.
• The humidistat control may be set too low. Adjust the humidistat con-
trol clockwise to a higher setting.
3. Too much humidity:
• When condensation becomes heavy on cold surfaces in the room,
turn the unit to a lower speed setting, turn down the humidistat
(rotate counter-clockwise), or increase the room temperature.
4. Water does not flow out of the bottles:
• After refilling the water bottles and placing them in the humidifier,
water may not flow into the tray if the humidifier was run dry. Lift one
of the bottles several times so the valve opens and closes. This will
start the flow of water.
5. Water Bottle Leak:
• Bottle may be cracked.
• If the cap leaks after filling, remove the cap and inspect the bottle
rim and gasket. Wipe any mineral deposits off the bottle rim and the
cap gasket. Tighten the cap securely.
