Cleaning
x Pre-filter- depending on the environment, the pre-filter may require cleaning every
two weeks to every two months or more. The easiest way to clean the pre-filter is to
vacuum it with a brush attachment.
If the pre-filter is exceptionally dirty, you may remove it from the unit (unplug the
unit first) and wash it in a mild soap and water solution. Rinse it thoroughly and allow
it to dry completely before reinstalling.
The dirtier the air filter is, the less airflow the unit can project.
x Fabric water curtain- this should also be cleaned every two weeks to every two
months, again depending upon the environment. Unplug the unit, remove the pre-
filter, and gently remove the fabric water curtain (it should pull off the fastening
strips). Wash it in a mild soap and water solution. Rinse it thoroughly and allow it to
dry completely before reinstalling.
Clean the frame on which the water curtain rests with a mild soap and water solution
before reinstalling the fabric water curtain.
x Water tank- depending on the environment, the water tank may require cleaning
every two weeks to every two months or more. If the tank becomes dirty, mildewy, or
acquires hard water deposits, unplug the unit, remove the water port door and
carefully clean the inside of the tank with a soft cloth and a mild soap and water
solution. Rinse out the solution and drain the unit as best you can, but take care not to
get any of the unit’s electronics wet.
You can also rinse the water tank with a solution of 2 tablespoons vinegar in ½ gallon
of water.
x Exterior of the unit- unplug the unit. Carefully wash it with a mild soap and water
solution and a soft cloth. Dry the unit with a soft cloth.
