Possible Causes

Elapsed run time since last cleaning, Heavy limescale on base and sensors, Biofilm buildup in water tank

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the humidifier and empty the tank before cleaning.

  • Descale base: For Stadler Form ultrasonic and evaporative humidifiers (e.g., Eva, Oskar), fill the base water chamber with a mixture of white vinegar and water (1:1) and let it soak for 30–60 minutes. Do not immerse the entire unit.
  • Clean tank: Wash the water tank with mild dish soap and a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly to remove any soap residue.
  • Rinse components: After descaling, rinse the base with clean water several times to remove vinegar and loosened scale.
  • Reset cleaning indicator: Follow the manual to reset the cleaning reminder (usually by holding the cleaning or timer button for several seconds).
