CAUTION: Use only EPA Registered Bacteriostat. Under no circumstances should
you use Water Treatment products intended for Rotobelt or Ultrasonic
humidifiers.
NOTE: We recommend using Essick Air
®
Bacteriostat Treatment PN 1970 when you
refill the water reservoir to eliminate bacterial growth. Add bacteriostat according to
the instructions on the bottle.
4) Place the water bottle back into the humidifier base. When positioned properly,
the plunger will open and the water will flow into the base. The base will hold the
entire contents of the water bottle. Once the bottle is empty, remove it and repeat
the filling process. The humidifier is now filled to capacity. To benefit from less
frequent filling let the humidifier exhaust both the water from the bottle and the
base before filling.
ABOUT HUMIDITY
Where you set your desired humidity levels depends on your personal comfort level,
the outside temperature and the inside temperature.
NOTE: Recent CDC tests show that the chances of flu transmission are greatly
reduced at levels of 43% humidity.
You may wish to purchase a hygrometer* to measure the humidity level in your home.
The following is a chart of recommended humidity settings.

*Model 1990 digital hygrometer is available for purchase by calling 1-800-547-3888.
NOTE: External hygrometer readings and humidistat readings may differ. Humidity
levels can vary significantly even in one room.
The amount of time it takes to affect the
room humidity depends on the relative humidity of the air. In especially dry areas it
could take up to 48 hours to see humidity climb to the desired level.
OPERATION
Plug cord into wall receptacle. Your humidifier is now ready for use. The humidifier
should be placed at least FOUR inches away from any walls and away from heat
registers. Unrestricted airflow into the unit will result in the best efficiency and
performance.
This unit has an automatic humidistat located in the cord that senses the humidity
level around the immediate area of the humidifier. It causes the humidifier to cycle
on and off to maintain the selected humidity SET point. The fan will turn on when the
humidity reading falls 3% below the SET point and will continue to run the humidifier
until a reading of 1% above the SET point is achieved.
IMPORTANT: Water
damage may result if
condensation starts to form
on windows or walls.
Humidity SET point should
be lowered until
condensation no longer
forms. We recommend
room humidity levels do not
exceed 50%.
