Cleaning The Humidifier and The Water Tank
Many regions have hard water with high concentrations of minerals. When water evaporates from The
Hunter® Evaporative Humidifier, minerals may be left behind. These minerals can form a hard white
scale which can be removed by following the cleaning instructions. The frequency of cleaning due
to mineral build up can vary depending upon the quality of water you may have.
Refer to Figure 1 for part names.
