Questions and answers
How do you clean the **** blades
The Holmes HM1855 humidifier does not have blades that require cleaning, as it is a cool mist humidifier, which typically uses a wick filter and water evaporation rather than spinning blades like a fan or impeller.
However, to ensure the internal components stay clean and the unit functions properly, follow the daily and weekly maintenance as outlined in the manual:
### Daily Maintenance:
1. Turn the power off and unplug the unit.
2. Remove the tank and housing.
3. Take the base and tank to the sink, remove the wick filter, drain and rinse both parts thoroughly.
4. Wipe clean and dry with a soft cloth or paper towel.
5. Replace the filter and housing, then refill with cool tap water.
### Weekly Maintenance (to remove scale and disinfect):
#### Remove Scale:
1. Follow steps 1–3 from daily maintenance.
2. Fill the base with an 8-oz cup of undiluted white vinegar or use Cleanse Clean™.
3. Let it stand for 20 minutes and scrub interior surfaces with a soft brush.
4. Wipe the entire base with a vinegar-dampened cloth.
5. Rinse thoroughly with warm water before disinfecting.
#### Disinfect Tank:
1. Fill the tank with ½ teaspoon of chlorine bleach and ½ gallon of water.
2. Let it stand for 20 minutes, swishing occasionally to wet all surfaces.
3. Empty the tank and rinse thoroughly until the bleach smell is gone.
4. Dry with a clean cloth or paper towel and refill with cool water.
Since there are no blades, focus on cleaning the tank, base, wick filter, and interior surfaces as described to maintain hygiene and performance.
