Humidifier EVA Little White

With an ultrasonic humidifier, the steam is diffused into the room by means of a small fan whose air inlet is, in most cases, located under the device. It is therefore necessary to check that nothing is blocking this air inlet. For example, avoid placing the device on a carpet, rug or cloth. In addition, be sure to check the temperature of the room: if it is too cold, the steam from your humidifier will fall around the device. It is therefore necessary to move it closer to a heat source or place it a little higher. Finally, we advise you to lower the power of the steam.

The air inlet, usually located under the appliance, is blocked by dust or the appliance is placed on a carpet or rug. Our advice: place the appliance on a flat, smooth surface.

If your humidifier is leaking, it may be because:

• your humidifier's tank is not closed properly: the cap is not screwed on properly
• the tank cap seal fell off when filling and there is no longer a seal
• the tank is cracked or broken. To test this, you can fill your tank and place it on a tray. If there is water in the tray after a few minutes, it means that the tank is no longer watertight. As this part is not under warranty, to replace the tank, go to the page Spare parts.

Be careful, do not try to fill your humidifier from the top, unless it is a "top-fill" humidifier and this is specified in the instructions. Please note that it is normal for there to be a little water in the base of the tank, at the level of the ultrasonic plate.

• Cold steam: tap water, mineral water and distilled water are suitable. If your water is hard, a white deposit will form around the device. This is the limescale in the water breaking into tiny particles and falling back down next to the device. There is no risk to your health, however, you must ensure that you clean your humidifier well so that it does not scale up. It is also possible to use a mixture of tap water and mineral water. To reduce this white dust, it is advisable to regularly replace the humidifier's filter cartridge.

• Warm steam: tap water, mineral water and distilled water are suitable. Just like hot steam humidifiers, water from a softener is strongly discouraged.

• Hot steam: tap water is suitable, but softened water from a descaling system using salt should be excluded. The boiling point of the water will be transformed, causing an overflow and then a deformation of the humidifier.

• Evaporator: any type of water. Ideal if the water is very hard. The hard water will remain at the bottom of the tank and can simply be cleaned with a suitable product (white vinegar for example).

Yes, a cartridge with cotton is provided for this purpose in the filling hatch of your humidifier. Generously soak the cotton and the oil will be diffused thanks to the air flow.

The float is probably stuck due to limescale residue. It is a moving part fixed to the outside of the tank and which fits onto a rod (in which there is a sensor) in the base of the humidifier. Check that the float gauge goes up and down. If necessary, descale the tank.

Prefer 100% natural essential oils that do not contain alcohol. Add only 2 or 3 drops of essential oils on a cotton pad that you will place in the drawer provided for this purpose. You should know that the intensity of the perfume is influenced by different factors such as the type of perfume, the temperature, or the size of the room. The perfume will never be as noticeable as an essential oil diffuser.
