Hello! I have a 33201 Hunter Humidifier and for some reason does not run. It turns on (light comes on) and I can hear a faint hum if I put my ear to the unit... but again it does not come on. It does...
Hi, Mark! It may be clogged with a calcium scale build up from the tap water you use. Unplug the unit and empty any water that is the tank.Mix a 50/50 solution of White Distilled Vinegar and Bottled Distilled Water. Mix enough to fill the tank. Let it soak for 2 to 3 hours and turn the unit ON. If it starts functioning as it should, allow it to run until the tank is 3/4's empty. If it doesn't operate as it should, allow it to soak overnight. And try again, following the procedure above. After it has run to the 3/4 empty point, turn the unit OFF. unplug it and dump the remaining solution. Refill the tank with Bottled Distilled Water and run again, for at least 2 hours. This with flush the system of the vinegar and water solution.
To avoid having this problem again, always use Bottled Distilled Water, rather than tap water.
Hope this helps to solve the problem. Have a Happy Easter!
We have had this same problem! And, we have two!! I can't figure out if the water is "spilling out" the venting because the permanent filter has to be placed one direction (which no indicator mark is present) so the water flows through and not over? But, I do know that finding puddles of water in our carpet from overnight use is enough to make them go out to trash! Any solutions would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
