Q: Does the humidifier make any gurgling or spitting noises on the low setting?

submitted by Hailey - 7 years ago
  • A: I bought 2 units on 12/23/2017 online here and have been using for 2 days. One unit was making popping noises say every half an hour or so. May have to get an exchange.

    submitted bySLYK - 7 years ago
  • A: My humidifier has been pretty quiet on the low setting. No hissing or gurgling noise.

    submitted byA500 - 7 years ago
  • A: Thank you for your inquiry Hailey. This unit should not make any spitting noises. However, there will be some gurgling as water leaves the tank and is replaced by air, as with any non-top-fill 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.

Q: How do I fill the tank with water?

submitted by amylacubana42 - 2 years ago
  • A: We will be happy to provide that information. To fill the water tank, remove the tank from the base and turn it upside down. Unscrew the cap that is located on the now exposed base of the unit. The cap will unscrew to the left. Once the cap is removed, you can put water into the tank. Make sure to line the cap up correctly and tighten it before turning the tank right side up. 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.

    submitted byManufacturer Tech Support - 2 years ago
    Brand expert
  • A: It's disappointing that so many humidifiers are manufactured to fill via bottom side twist-valve-cap versus top fill. The bottom-fill process is awkward & often difficult, especially for the elderly.

submitted by Mrs Fleming - 4 years ago

submitted by Cmcree - 4 years ago
  • A: Our trusted friends at Helen Troy Company will be happy to help you clarify this, so give them a call at 800 – 827 – 6712. We hope you find your answer soon!

    submitted byVicks - 4 years ago
    Brand expert
  • A: Thank you for your inquiry. A warm mist humidifier has a heating element that internally heats up, and through convection, heats and boils the water. A vaporizer is made of two carbon electrodes that send arcs of electricity through the minerals in the water. This arcing energizes the water to the point that it vaporizes, or turns into vapor. 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.

    We were trying to see why it leaks water..... There are holes at the base/foundation of the humidifier. The vapo pads does not work well with this. Just the liquid. The price for this should be lower than what it is. For the most part it gets the job done... I think

    I would rate this product zero stars if I could. I have only had it for just over one month and it doesn’t consistently work. It doesn’t work on the higher setting and the lower setting sporadically works. Even on the lower setting it just stops working after an hour or so.

    Somehow this thing leaked the vicks syrup onto my beautiful furniture and totally ruined it!! I had a small silicone mat under the humidifier itself, but the way its so tall and the medicine cup is ALL THE WAY ON THE TIPPITY TOP it might have spilled somehow, which is a very stupid design! I am so upset at how it destroyed my furniture! There was even a line forming around the silicone mat that made a line that's eaten through the paint! Garbage!

    With little kids, a humidifier to help alleviate cold symptoms is a must, and this one did a really great job of that while it lasted. Especially helped my kiddo with asthma breathe easier. I love that it has a compartment to add Vicks vapor liquid into it. Also, as a side note, it fits perfectly on the top of one of Target's 3 Tier Metal Utility Carts (not sponsored) which we have set up as our sick cart and can wheel it between rooms (if one kid gets sick, you know it's a matter of time before the next one does... and the next... and yourself... so this thing gets around). Lately, during a recent bought of illness, we failed to remember to turn it off after a long night of humidifying and it overheated. We turned it off and let it rest, and it worked for a couple more nights. Now, it seems it will turn on and then pop itself back off in just a couple minutes, feigning it's overheated again. After a few days in a row of this, I think it's probably time to replace it. I purchased it December 2022 and it bit the dust February of '24. Not sure what the average lifespan of a humidifier is, but this one was just over a year for us. Take that for what you will. TBH, I'll probably just buy this one again.

    Bad product - 10 months ago
    Dislike that it leaks water on every use. Must clean it out after every use. Needs to be checked for build up from the steam that is not good for any home. Very dangerous if breathing and not filtered. I no longer see the light on also no longer hear it run so it must be broken. If you see that is doesn’t run the same after the 2nd try just return it. I know I should have done that right away. Now I must look for a new one. Just will no longer buy this brand.

    Only works periodically - will sometimes warm up the water and produce the vapors, but not every time. It feels like a piece isn't put together properly in the office somewhere that keeps each container from setting in place correctly, which makes it not work every time.
