Essick Air H12 300 Humidifier User Manual


 
DISINFECTING THE BOTTLE
11) Remove the water bottle cap and empty remaining water into a drain. Pour a mixture of
one pint of water and two tablespoons of household bleach into the bottle. Replace cap
and shake bottle thoroughly. Remove cap, drain bottle into sink, rinse well with fresh water.
RE-ASSEMBLE THE UNIT
12) Replace the wick with rod and float assembly into water reservoir, allowing the wick to
hang from the rib on the inside back wall of the cabinet and positioning the white float
into the pocket on the bottom of the cabinet.
13) Replace chassis/power pack unit in cabinet, ensuring that the chassis sits correctly on
the front, back, and right edges of the cabinet.
14) Replace filled water bottle into cabinet, allow to drain, then refill the bottle for maximum
running time.
15) Replace the bottle cover onto cabinet.
16) Plug cord into wall outlet.
17) Reset humidistat to desired setting.
EVAPORATIVE WICK
18) We recommend replacing the wick at least once a season, more often in hard water
areas. When the wick appears excessively clogged with mineral deposits, discard it and
restore your humidifier’s efficiency with a new wick. Bemis by Essick Air wick No. 1045
fits only the H12 Series. Call 1-800-547-3888 to order.
Only Bemis by Essick Air
Wicks guarantee the certified output of your humidifier.
Use of evaporative
wicks other than Bemis by Essick Air evaporative wicks will void your warranty, as well
as the certification of output, and may reduce the efficiency and output of your humidifier.
19) NOTE: When replacing the wick, the float rod retainer must be extended prior to insert-
ing the float rod.
Summer Storage
To dry your unit before storage, unplug the cord, remove and empty the water bottle, remove
the power pack, and use a clothespin to clamp the wide circular disk on the float rod to the
wick retainer. This will hold the float in an upright position causing the unit to run continuous-
ly. Re-assemble the unit, plug it in and turn the humidistat fully clockwise to lock the unit on.
Run on any speed until the wick is dry. When your wick and unit have thoroughly dried,
remove the clothespin.
1) Clean unit as outlined in Care & Maintenance section.
2)
Discard the used wick. Install a new Bemis by Essick Air wick at the beginning of the next
season. Only Bemis by Essick Air wicks guarantee the rated output of your humidifier
.
3) Do not store with a wet wick or water inside the unit or water bottle, as this could
become a potential source of bacteria growth.
4) Do not store unit in attic or other high-temperature area.
5) Clean humidifier and install new wick before the next season begins.
6) A convenient order form for wicks and accessories is found in the back of this manual.
