If it's a de-humidifier, it is made to take the water out of the air. Usually you will need to take the water out of the de-humidifier that gets condensed out of the air. An air humidifier works in the opposite way and would need to have water added to re-humidify the air.

Which model do you have? On the H12 and 696 series models, F indicates refill the humidifier; the reservoir bottle is out of water. The CF means check the filter/wick. Replace the wick if appropriate. The CF message will appear every 720 hours of run time for the humidifier. It will be reset when the unit is unplugged or loses power. You can find the Owner's manual for many of the Aircare humidifiers on the product page. Start at https://aircareproducts.com/ Then look for your humidifier. The link to the owner's manual is just below the Add to Cart button on the right side of the page. Use the manual to identify the correct filter or wick for your humidifier. I hope this helps.

The mineral content of your water is too high. This will cause the water to boil too vigorously and percolate up through the hole. Try mixing about 75% distilled water in with the water you are currently using. Don't use 100% distilled water because that won't work at all.

It may burn out by then. Get some canned air at Walmart and blow the open areas to remove any debris. That may be the problem.

The soft silicone gasket that fits around the container and base of the water reservoir must be dry, flat in place, and even all around to make a good seal. The unit must be LEVEL and not crooked or leaning in any one direction. If you have a leak, other than the gasket is a defect of the molded case or parts. If its within the warranty terms, return it for a replacement.

Not sure what make or model you have but if it's a auto -fill shut off the auto fill and see if the water level goes down. It also may not be the right size for the area/sq footage you're trying to humidify. Make and model would help for specs of the unit. Thanks.

The water source (tank or bottle) sits tight on the platform and there is a plastic form known as a seal to prevent leakage. You need to replace the seal.
