Humidifier Operations
Your new Sears humidifier is designed to
satisfy home humidity requirements
through the principle of evaporation of
water into the air.
After water is added to the cabinet, the fil-
ters begin to soak up the water and
become totally saturated in approximately
30 minutes. Air is drawn in from the rear of
the humidifier and through the filters by
means of circulation fans. As air passes
through the filters, moisture is absorbed
into the air and then released through the
top of the humidifier. This moist air is
released in the form of vapor. No water
droplets will enter the home. All evapora-
tion into the air takes place in the humidi-
tier, which means that the residue left by
evaporating water is not passed into the
home, but remains in the filter.
CAUTION: Use only 42-14900 EPA
Registered Bacteriostat available
from SEARS Retail store. Under no
circumstances should you use water
treatment products designed for Roto

CAUTION: Keep your humidifier
clean. While humidifiers do not cause
colds, some studies suggest that dirty
humidifiers can cause cold-like symp-
toms in some people. To reduce the
risk of this, we recommend you clean
your humidifier weekly with
Humidifier Cleaner 42-14713 and use
Bacteriostat 42-14900. These are
available at your local Sears store
