A: No it doesnt. I've had mine over 3 yrs.

A: No it doesn't. You'll be fine.

A: do use salt will band

A: I've owned this humidifier for almost two years and had the same concern at first. You can't see the mist, but it does create humidified air and I think works better than my other unit where the mist is more visible. If you fill the water container and run the unit and it empties out in 10-15 hours, then you know it is releasing plenty of humidified air.

A: We appreciate your inquiry. The type of humidifier you have is ‘Evaporative’, which means that the fan in the unit evaporates the water directly into the air. The way this unit works is: The wicking filter soaks the water up from the tray that it is sitting in. The fan then pulls the water off of the filter and evaporates it into the surrounding air. Since the air is being perfectly balanced and not oversaturated, you will not feel or see the moisture. Over time, you will notice the water level in your tank going down, which shows you that the unit is working. The only time the unit would run and not use up any water is once all of the air in the room reaches about 50%. At this point, the air cannot soak up any more water from the filter, so the fan will keep running but the water level will only go down minimally. We hope this is helpful. If you have any questions, please contact us by emailing SocialSupport@kaz.com. Thank you.

A: I was wondering too, it says cool, then it has over to the right, “Warm visible mist provides soothing comfort for dry air relief, which would imply a heating humidifier. Fix the description...please... I was looking for another cheaper evaporation unit over my main one. FYI to other readers... With evaporation units you do not see the mist, are cool; heating ones are warm/hot you see it the mist; ultrasonic humidifiers are cool, you see the mist and are the units that deposit a white mineral dust. Evaporation models are the least likely to airborne viable bacteria according to some studies I have seen. A few Honeywell models have a small UV light in the pathway of the water from the storage bottle to the filter that should help with some bacteria, well could not hurt.. more of a safe guard then guarantee in my opinion? These run around $60 if you look around. Honeywell HCM350 comes to mind.

A: The description details notes that a filter isn’t needed. Is this true?

A: HC-888 series replacement Filter C(One wicking filter included with humidifier)

A: Thank you for your inquiry. The HC-888 wicking filter is the correct model filter for this humidifier. 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.

A: It will keep running, but since it is evaporative (not warm mist), there will be no water vapor being blown out into the room. Since there is no heating element, there is no risk of anything "burning up." It will basically just turn into a fan.

A: A.) Thank you for your inquiry. This Honeywell humidifier is not equipped with an auto-shut off feature. With this type of unit an automatic shut off is unnecessary because the only mechanical component is a fan. When the unit is not in use, or is out of water, it is actually better for the filter to be dried out, which is exactly what the fan will do for you. However, this unit does have 0.8 gallon capacity and can runs up to 18 hours per filling on low setting. We hope this information is helpful.
