Problem for Air-O-Swiss 7133 Humidifier
Humidifier leaves film everywhere!
Hello!
My new humidifier is great except that it leaves a white film on the furniture.....I'm concerned that whatever is being left everywhere is also being inhaled by us.....is it necessary to only use purified water? What is the white film?? My e-mail is zpeddle@gmail.com....the product is actually AOS U7142, but I couldn't find it on the list below.....
Thanks!

- i have the same problem with an air-o-swiss - it was a very expensive humidifier and its all over everything. i thought it was the silver cartridge that keeps the water clean so i took it out and it persisted. does anyone know what this is or what to do about it?- kf88Jan 05, 2009
- Leave white film mostly on plastic type surfaces. Doesn't leave film as much on wood surfaces.- EmComDec 08, 2008
- I have the same problem with the Venta 370. I doubt it's the humidifier at all, and agree, it must be a hard water issue. - GuestFeb 02, 2008
- Hi EveryoneMy woman bought a Homes humidifier and that white film is all over our mobile home. We are always wiping down all our electronics. We can't seem to find info. on this. Our humidifier DOES NOT have any filters and we think this is caused by extream hard water. We live in Fort St. John, BC , Canada. If you have any imput into this ,please leave your coments.
Thanks

I talked to Kaz, a manufacturer of humidifiers, and they said this is referred to as "white dust". It's simply the minerals from your water settling on your furniture...I had to same problem so I called the manufacturer.
He said it's not dangerous but that I should use distilled water in my humidifier from now on since my water will always do that. He also stressed the importance of cleaning the unit weekly with a bleach and vinegar solution per the manufacturers specs.

thank you!
hey Perno - be careful with bleach and vinegar together - i'm not sure if its true, but i heard somewhere its poisonous and pretty harmful together.
maybe google that combo before you start cleaning.
thanks for the white dust info...
