Warm or Cold Humidication Selection

Select humidifying temperature based on need. Warm humidity will use more power but will humidify your room quicker.

NOTE: It may take 10-15 minutes before warm humidity is created. The mist may not feel especially warm due to the fact it is so ne and is cooled rather quickly from the air in your home.

TEST: To test if the warm mist is functioning properly, place the unit in a 200 square foot room or smaller and close the door. Allow the unit to run for approximately 30 minutes or more. Reenter the room - if unit is functioning properly - the room will feel moderately warmer.

Water Shortage Indicator

When the unit is low on water the Rell LED on the front panel will light up, and the unit will shut off. Simply add more water to continue use. Unit will automatically resume running when water tank has been relled.

Humidity Adjustment

The humidity volume may be adjusted based on need by using the adjustment knob on the front panel.

Silver Clean Technology

Unlike other humidiers that grow slimy mold and mildew, the pureguardian Ultrasonic Humidiers use Silver CleanTM technology embedded in the tank to ght the growth of mildew and mold on the surface of the water tank.
