We recommend changing the wicking filter every 30 – 60 days. Your water will ultimately determine how often your wicks need to be replaced.

If your unit is full with water and the F code still engages, this means the float rod is not positioned correctly. Please make sure the float rod is making a solid connection with the internal power switch (this looks like a small silver diving board).

The unit can be placed next to your air return or in a central location in your home (usually your living room). Wherever the humidifier is placed, the humidity will be more concentrated in that area, so place it where it will be more beneficial to those in your household.

Yes, this humidifier comes with the wicks so that you can run your unit straight out of the box.

How often you fill your tank is based on the speed you run the humidifier on and whether your home already has a good amount of humidity. If the conditions are less than ideal, you may need to refill your bottle 2 – 3 times in a 24-hour period. Refills will occur less frequently as humidity accumulates in your home.

This model comes with a bottle that holds 1.9 gallons of water.

Even with the use of bacteriostatic treatment, we recommend that you routinely clean your humidifier. An ideal regimen of cleaning is biweekly or monthly.
