Why does my Boneco Air-O-Swiss Ultrasonic Humidifier emit so much mist that it wets the floor and bedspread.

Question edited to add maker. Set too high or the room is too cold. Lots of models, and all produce water in mist form, and the droplets have to land. It is the nature of the machine. https://www.google.com/search?q=Air+o+swiss+humidifier%2C+too+much+mist ..

High-pitched noise from Honeywell Humidifier

Sounds like the high pitched noise is coming from the solenoid valve which allows water to enter the humidifier. Typically when the water pressure is too high, it causes this high pitched sound at the solenoid valve. You can adjust the water pressure a little at a time and see if it helps, just make sure you’re getting enough water across the water panel.

Sunbeam Humidifier model 700. I need a manual for it please?

Question edited for clarity. It doesn't appear to be a popular model. It may work better where you live. The Sunbeam sites are country based. https://www.sunbeam.com/instruction-manuals.html https://www.google.com/search?q=sunbeam+ultrasonic+humidifier+model+700+manual ..

My air-o-swiss 7142 humidifier keeps

The water sensor is a float in the mister area of the base. The float is off in one corner with a little plastic barrier around it and translucent cap over it. Make sure the float can more freely. If the float can move up and down but the light stays on, the reed switch (a switch controlled by a magnet built into the float) inside the unit might have been knocked loose, damaged or disconnected. The switch is actually inside the post that the float slides on, but it can only be accessed from the underside - inside the unit.

Working, but not blowing mist.

I think I found the problem.

unplug humidifer, remove top tank, empty all water out of base. dry off.

turn unit upside down.

unscrew five visible screws.

use a screw driver to pull off the black foam foot pads. you will find more screws there.

pull off the base.

look next to the fan, you will see a metal "tower" going up into the reservoir. Is it dirty such as white chalky substance on it? Clean it with cotton swabs. Clean the fan while your at it if needed.

You will see a small gray box with two metal tabs twisted. Untwist them and pull off the top.

On that metal "tower" you will see a small black chip connected to the circuit board where you just removed the metal top. Does black chip have black marks on the circuit board? Mine does. I suspect the "tower" which draws heat from this black chip was no longer able to cool because of the white chalk buildup on the tower, furthermore, the chip became too hot and caused the black chip to overheat (again black marks on the circuit board).

The chip has on it "FTR 02N" and a "54F" at the bottom. I tried doing some basic searching on internet to see if it could be replaced, but didn't find anything.


For those who don't have this problem yet, just keep that metal cooling tower clean.

Filled humidifier press on and shuts off

Hi, please switch power outlets before attempting to power the humidifier again. Please double check that you've filled the humidifier as instructed and chosen the lowest setting at first to start. If the issue persists and the device is more than a few years old, you can request repair or replacement assistance from qvc next to help overcome this issue. Thank you.

Waterless code displays, but it is full

the inlet valve spring is too strong on these, so the water can stop flowing into the unit. makes sure it is on a flat surface, fiddle with the valve spring.

Aprilaire 700 leaks water from bottom of case

Install new water panels yearly. On the new panel make sure that the painted dot on the edge of the panel is on the top when you install it.
Always clean the distribution tray and the frame. Make sure the notch on the edge of the distribution tray faces away from the furnace. Make sure the humidifier was installed level. Keep the drain tube opening clear. Insure there is no blockages in the drain tube.
Good luck

Too much water running through to humidifier

With the Honeywell he220, you will use alot of water, trying to turn down the water will only reduce your amount of humidity in the home, you may be able to adjust it a little but you need to take the cover off and reduce the water flow a little at a time watching the water as it flows across the pad, you just have to make sure the humidifier pad is getting plenty of water across it, to little and you lose your humidification, hope that was helpful to ya, thanks for your question,
