Possible Causes

Room too large for unit capacity, open windows or drafts, incorrect humidity setpoint, clogged atomizer or outlet

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Normal operation troubleshooting only; no internal work required.

  • Check capacity: Verify that the humidifier's rated coverage matches the room size.
  • Close openings: Close doors and windows to prevent moisture from escaping.
  • Increase setpoint: Set the target humidity higher (e.g., 50–55%).
  • Clean unit: Clean the atomizer membrane and mist outlet as described in the manual.
  • Placement: Place the unit away from heating vents and direct sunlight, and at least 30 cm from walls.
