Essick Air Bemis 4D7 800 - Manual (Page 3)

Introduction
Your Bemis by Essick Air evaporative humidifier adds invisible moisture to your
home by moving dry inlet air through a saturated wick. As air moves through
the wick, the water evaporates into the air, leaving behind any white dust,
minerals or dissolved and suspended solids. Because the water is evaporated,
there is no messy mist or spray, and no white dust, just clean and invisible
moist air.
As the wick traps accumulated minerals from the water, its ability to absorb
and evaporate water decreases. We recommend changing the wick at least
once a year, preferably disposing of the used wick at the end of the humidify-
ing season and starting with a new one at the beginning of the next humidify-
ing season. In hard water areas, more frequent replacement may be necessary
to maintain your humidifier's efficiency.
NOTICE: We recommend using Bemis by Essick Air Bacteria Treatment,
whenever you refill the water bottles to eliminate bacteria growth. Follow
the directions to determine the proper amount to be added to the 2.75 gallon
water bottles.
The evaporative wick does not require the use of chelating agent type water treat-
ments that are intended for use in Rotobelt or Water Wheel type humidifiers.
Your humidifier is equipped with two water bottles. When both bottles have
emptied, the humidifier fan will automatically shut off and the "Refill Water
Bottles" message will light. The unit will start again automatically when the
water bottles are refilled. The right bottle will empty first. If it does not do so,
the humidifier may not be level.
Dry air is drawn into the
humidifier through the back
and moisturized as it passes
through the evaporative wick.
It is then fanned out into the
room.

Locate your humidifier on an inside wall, near an electrical outlet. The humidifi-
er should be at least 4" away from the wall for best results. Do not position the
unit directly in front of a hot air duct or radiator.
