Essick Air DP3 200 Humidifier User Manual


 
CAUTION - We recommend Bemis by Essick Air Bacteria
Treatment whenever you refill the water bottles to eliminate
bacteria growth. Follow the directions to determine the proper
amount to be added to the 1.6-gal. water bottles.
The wick does not require the use of chelating agent-type water tr
eatments
that are intended for use in Rotobelt or waterwheel-type humidifi
ers.
Tips for Best Performance
1) Do not block airflow inlets or outlets. Keep the grille areas clean.
2) Place the 2 in 1 air purifier & humidifier at least four inches away from
any walls and in an area away from heat registers.
3) Regular cleaning of the unit is recommended. Follow the CARE AND
MAINTENANCE instructions in this manual.
4) Replace the air filter regularly, preferably once a year. You can deter-
mine when to change your filter by the color of the white media. When
it becomes dark brown or gray, it is time to replace the filter. If the high-
speed air flow reduces considerably, it is also time to change the air
filter.
5) Change the evaporative wicks at least once a year. In extremely hard
water areas, more frequent replacement may be necessary. Only Bemis
by Essick Air wicks guarantee the rated output of your 2 in 1 air purifier
& humidifier.
6) Use a bacteriostat, such as Bemis by Essick Air #1970 EPA Registered
Bacteria Treatment or Bemis by Essick Air #1970CN Environment
Protection Branch registered Bacteria Treatment (in Canada), whenever
you fill the water bottles to eliminate bacteria growth. To order air filters,
evaporative wicks or Bacteria Treatment call 1-800-547-3888 or use the
convenient order form in the back of this manual.
7) Do not use water treatment products designed for Water Wheel,
Rotobelt, drum type, or ultrasonic humidifiers. These products may cause
the wicks to become inefficient.
Controls and Operation
1) Remove all packaging materials before operation.
2) Before proceeding, make sure the
evaporative wicks are resting all the way into
the water channel (see diagram). Refer to the
CARE AND MAINTENANCE section for
instructions on removing the wicks for clean-
ing and service. The wicks and air filter must
be in position for proper operation as a
humidifier and/or air purifier.
