ABOUT HUMIDITY
Where you set your desired humidity levels depends on your personal comfort
level, the outside temperature and the inside temperature.
NOTE: Recent CDC tests show that the chances of flu transmission are greatly
reduced at levels of 43% humidity.
You may wish to purchase a hygrometer* to measure the humidity level in your
home. The following is a chart of recommended humidity settings.
IMPORTANT: Water damage
may result if condensation
starts to form on windows or
walls. Humidity SET point
should be lowered until
condensation no longer forms.
We recommend room humidity
levels do not exceed 50%.
*Model 1990 digital hygrometer is available for purchase by calling 1-800-547-3888.
NOTE: External hygrometer readings and humidistat readings may differ. Humidity
levels can vary significantly even in one room.
OPERATION
Plug cord into wall receptacle. Your humidifier is now ready for use. The humidifier should be
placed at least FOUR inches away from any walls and away from heat registers. Unrestricted
airflow into the unit will result in the best efficiency and performance.
NOTE: This unit has an automatic humidistat located on the cord that senses the humidity
level around the immediate area of the humidifier. It turns the humidifier on when the relative
humidity in your home is below the humidistat setting and will turn the humidifier off when the
relative humidity reaches the humidistat setting.
HUMIDITY CONTROL
3) The hygrometer on the cord reads the current room humidity and displays the
percentage on LCD panel.
4) To set the desired humidity, press the HUMIDITY button. Each successive push
increases the humidity in 5% increments. The range is 25% to 65%.
5) At 65% the humidifier will run constantly with or without water.
NOTE: If excessive condensation occurs, reduce fan to a lower speed setting
