CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning your humidifier regularly helps eliminate odors and bacterial / fungal

wipe out the humidifier base / reservoir after cleaning. We recommend cleaning
your humidifier at least once every two weeks to maintain optimum
environmental conditions for your home.
We also recommend using AIRCARE
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
