Important Safeguards
READ BEFORE USING YOUR HUMIDIFIER
1) This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a
polarized 120-volt AC, 15-amp outlet, only one way. If the plug does not
fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. If an
extension cordmust be used, it should also accept the wide blade plug
and meet this electrical rating.
2) Do not place the cord under rugs, in traffic areas, or near heat sources.
3) Do not use the humidifier if the cord is damaged.
4) Always unplug the power cord before cleaning, servicing or when the unit
is not in use.
5) Do not place the humidifier near loose drapes, combustible materials, or
heat-producing objects.
6) This humidifier is UL approved with Bemis by Essick Air brand evaporative
wicks in place. To maintain your UL rating, see your service center for all
repairs. Use only Bemis by Essick Air brand replacement wicks and
chemicals. To order parts, wicks and chemicals call 1- 800-547-3888.
7) Regular cleaning is recommended. Refer to CARE & MAINTENANCE
section in this manual
Introduction
Your Bemis by Essick Air evaporative humidifier adds invisible moistureto
your home by moving dry inlet air through a saturated wick. As air moves
through the wick, the water evaporates into the air, leaving behind any
white dust, minerals or dissolved and suspended solids. Because the water
is evaporated, there is no messy mist or spray and no white dust, just clean
and invisible moist air.
As the evaporative wick traps accumulated minerals from the water, its
ability to absorb and evaporate water decreases. We recommend chang-
ing the wick at least once a year,preferably disposing of the used one at
the end of the humidifying season and starting with a new one at the
beginning of the next humidifying season. In hard water areas, more
frequent replacement may be necessary to maintain your humidifier's
efficiency.
CAUTION- We recommend using Bemis by Essick Air Bacteria Treatment whenever
you refill the reservoir to eliminate bacteria growth. Follow the directions to deter-
mine the proper amount to be added to the 1 gallon reservoir.
The wick does not require the use of chelating agent type water treatments that are
intended for use in Rotobelt or Water Wheel type humidifiers.
Locate your humidifier on an inside wall, near an electrical outlet. The humidifier
should be at least 4" away from the wall for best results. Do not position the unit
directly in front of a hot air duct or radiator. We suggest placing the unit on a table
or on a bookshelf.
Assembly & Operation
1) Unpack humidifier from carton.
2) Lift off the “cover/chassis” unit from the cabinet. Remove any packaging material
from the inside of the cabinet. The evaporative wick (only one) should remain in
place, positioned within the two pair of locating ribs
inside of the cabinet. (See illustration.)
3) Place the humidifier “cabinet” with evaporative wick at
the location where the product will be operated. Fill the
“cabinet” reservoir with cool, fresh, preferably unsoftened
water to the top of the rear handle shelf. If only softened
water is available, it can be used, however you will notice
a build up of minerals on the evaporative wick much sooner.
A fill level is indicated. Reservoir capacity is one gallon.
Do not overfill. If you carry the filled cabinet, tip the
evaporative wick side up slightly to avoid spillage.
DO NOT POUR WATER INTO THE TOP GRILLE ONTO THE
FAN MOTOR. ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS MUST BE
KEPT DRY.
4) In the course of daily operation, we recommend emptying any remaining water in the
reservoir, rinsing the humidifier reservoir, and wiping it clean prior to adding fresh water.
5) Place the cover/chassis unit onto the cabinet. Align the cord exit with the slot in the
rear of the cabinet. The cover should fit snug over the edges of the bottom.
6) We recommend using Bemis by Essick Air Bacteria Treatment whenever you refill
the humidifier reservoir to eliminate bacterial growth. Add bacteriostat according
to the instructions on the bottle.
7) Plug cord into wall receptacle.
8) Turn humidifier on.
Controls
9) Model 926 000 is equipped with a two speed fan control switch. Use the low
setting for quiet operation and the high speed for maximum output.
Care and Maintenance
IMPORTANT: We recommend cleaning your humidifier once a
week. Follow instructions.
Humidifiers provide comfort by adding moisture to dry, heated indoor air.
To get the most benefit from the humidifier and avoid product misuse, fol-
low all instructions carefully, specifically the operation, care and mainte-
nance guidelines. Please note this is an electrical appliance and requires
careful attention when in use.
In addition, if you do not follow the recommended care and maintenance
guidelines, microorganisms may be able to grow in the water within the
humidifier's reservoir.
Caution: Disconnect power before cleaning or servicing unit.
1) Turn unit off.
2) Unplug electrical cord from wall
outlet.
3) Lift off motor and fan assembly
(top portion of humidifier).
REMOVING SCALE
4) Carefully lift wick from cabinet,
allowing any water to drain
from wick into cabinet.
5) Empty cabinet into sink. Remove
any remaining water from
cabinet with a sponge. Fill
reservoir with one 8 oz cup of
undiluted white vinegar.
Let solution stay 20 minutes.
Clean all interior surfaces with a
soft brush. Dampen a soft cloth
with undiluted white vinegar
and wipe out reservoir to
remove scale.
6) Rinse cabinet thoroughly with
fresh water to remove scale &
cleaning solution before
disinfecting.
DISINFECTING
RESERVOIR
7) Fill reservoir with mixture of one
teaspoon chlorine bleach in one
gallon water. Let solution stay
20 minutes, swishing every few
minutes. Wet all surfaces.
8) Empty reservoir after 20
minutes. Rinse with water until
bleach smell is gone. Dry with
clean cloth or paper towel.
9) Replace wick in cabinet by
sliding the wick into position
between locating ribs in sides
of cabinet.
10) Replace motor and fan assembly
ensuring that it seats correctly
on the front and back edge of
the cabinet and that the cord is
not caught on the edge of the
unit.
11) Plug cord into wall outlet.
Turn unit on.
EVAPORATIVE WICK
12) We recommend replacing the
wick at least once a season
more often in hard water areas.
When it appears excessively
clogged with mineral deposits,
discard it and restore your
humidifier's efficiency with a
new wick. Bemis by Essick Air
evaporative wick number 1044
fits the 900 Series tabletop
humidifiers. For replacement
wicks call 800-547-3888. Only
Bemis by Essick Air evaporative
wicks guarantee the out-put of
your humidifier.Use of wicks
other than Bemis by Essick Air
will void your warranty and
may reduce the efficiency and
output of your humidifier.
Summer Storage
1) Clean unit as outlined in Care
& Maintenance section.
2) Discard used wick. (install a
new Bemis by Essick Air wick at
the beginning of the next sea-
son. Only Bemis by Essick Air
wicks guarantee the output of
your humidifier.)
3) Allow unit to dry thoroughly
before storage. Do not store
with water inside unit.
4) Do not store unit in attic or
other high-temperature area.
5) Clean humidifier and install
new wick before next season
begins.
6) A convenient order form for
wicks and accessories is found
in the back of this manual.
