A: Thank you for your inquiry. Please note that when you start using the unit, you may hear bubbling and dripping. This is because there is only one entrance/exit from the tank. As water in the base is used, water from the tank will leave, and air will take its place. This can make a bubbling and dripping noise. While this is normally unobtrusive, it will lessen as the unit runs and the humidity in the area around the unit increase. There is nothing wrong or defective about this in either unit. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact our consumer relations team by emailing us at SocialSupport@helenoftroy.com. Thank you.
