FAQs

How often should I clean the misting unit?

The cleaning frequency depends on water quality and usage. As a general guideline, clean the unit every 1-3 months. Check the unit regularly for mineral deposits, and clean it as soon as deposits are observed.

What type of water should I use?

Always use distilled or purified water to prevent mineral buildup and ensure optimal performance. The use of biOrb HumidiMist is recommended.

My misting unit is making a strange noise.

This can be caused by mineral buildup or low water levels. Check the water level and clean the unit according to the manufacturer's instructions.

How do I know if my misting unit is malfunctioning?

If the misting is inconsistent, the low water level indicator activates frequently, or you notice a strange noise, the unit may be malfunctioning. Check for mineral buildup, water level, and connections.

What is biOrb HumidiMist, and do I need it?

biOrb HumidiMist is a water additive designed to enhance the performance of the misting unit. While not strictly required, it helps maintain the correct electrolyte balance, allowing the sensors to work efficiently. It is recommended.

How long does the misting unit last?

The lifespan of the misting unit depends on usage and maintenance. With proper care and regular cleaning, it should provide several years of reliable service.

Can I use tap water?

No, do not use tap water. Tap water contains minerals that can cause buildup and damage the unit. Use distilled or purified water only.

Troubleshooting

Misting unit not working

Check the water level. Ensure the unit is plugged in correctly and that the power supply is functioning. Inspect the unit for mineral buildup and clean it if necessary. Make sure you are using distilled or purified water.

Low water level indicator activated even when the reservoir is full.
