12. MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance is important for the optimum operation of the humidier and to
maintain hygiene.
The yearly maintenance of the water reservoir will depend on the quality of the water and the
purity of the air that is sucked in. The transducer must be replaced after
approximately 20,000 operating hours (i.e. after about 2 years in the case of continuous use).
Check the following before starting maintenance or shipping the humidier:
- The mains plug has been removed from the socket and the ventilator is not moving.
- The water supply has been closed.
- The water supply pipe has been removed.
- The humidity sensor plug has been removed.
- The water reservoir is empty and the water discharge hose has been removed.
- The humidier remains horizontal while dismantling.
Cleaning
- Clean the reservoir with a soft brush or cloth.
In the case of calcium scale, the reservoir can be lled with household vinegar. Allow
to soak for 4-12 hours then clean with a soft brush and ush through. Remove the
lter from the water inlet. Clean the lter or replace it with a new one. Flush the water
discharge with water and clean it with a round brush.
