Make sure the power switch is off!<\/strong> The last thing you need is an unpleasant shock while performing this maintenance. Once you are sure there is no power going to the humidifier, begin taking your whole house humidifier apart so you can access the inside for cleaning.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/cleaning-whole-house-humidifer-2.jpg\" alt=\"Whole House Humidifier Tips\" width=\"280\" height=\"210\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-769\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Cleaning the Water Reservoir<\/strong> \u2013 After your humidifier is disassembled, empty the reservoir and refill it about 2\/3 of the way. In order to remove any microbes that may be living inside, add a small amount of chlorine bleach. Swirl the solution around and be sure to remove any scale buildup too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Cleaning the Water Panel<\/strong> \u2013 In general, your whole house humidifier&rsquo;s water panel should be replaced every year, or more if required. The water panel consists of the water pad, evaporator pad, and the filter. Note your whole house humidifier may allow for the cleaning of these parts (check your Owner&rsquo;s Manual). If this is the case for you, place them in a tub of cold water for 20 minutes. Next, rinse the filter and wipe away any excess dirt. After this, you can replace the filter with either a new one or your freshly cleaned old filter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Cleaning the Outer Body<\/strong> \u2013 After the heating season, you will notice that some components of your whole house humidifier may be contaminated with mineral deposits. A cloth dipped in warm water or diluted vinegar should do the trick to remove this, but for heavily contaminated components you can use a 50\/50 water-vinegar solution. The best way to clean contaminated components is to simply soak them for 15-30 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Re-assembly<\/strong> \u2013 Make sure there are no drips or leaks coming from your whole house humidifier, and then re-assemble it correctly for another season of use.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Contact_Us_for_All_Your_Whole_House_Humidifier_Maintenance_Needs\"><\/span>Contact Us for All Your Whole House Humidifier Maintenance Needs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Cleaning your whole house humidifier is certainly something you can do yourself if you are so inclined.
