Cleaning The Humidifier And The Water Tank
Many regions have hard water with high
concentrations
of minerals.
When water
evaporates from The Care Free® Humidifier Plus
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
