Possible Causes

Cracked water tank, Worn tank cap gasket, Misaligned tank valve, Overfilling beyond max line

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the humidifier and wipe up any spilled water.

Steps:

  • Remove the water tank and inspect for cracks, especially around seams and handle. Replace the tank if damaged.
  • Check the tank cap and rubber gasket for wear or deformation. Replace the tank cap gasket if it no longer seals properly.
  • Ensure the tank valve or plug is installed correctly and not cross-threaded.
  • Fill only to the indicated maximum level. Overfilling can cause leaks when the tank is inverted onto the base.
