AnswerHi, Alexandra. Thank you for your question. The cover does not come off the cooler, but compressed air usually works pretty well to clean the fan blades. I hope this helps! - Sydney, Essick Air Products
What does CF stand for
Asked by 0316 March 7, 20182
AnswersThe CF stands for check filter. If the filter is still absorbing the water all the way to the top, the filter is good. If it is dry in places, it needs to be replaced. The clear the CF simply unplug the unit for a few seconds. When the unit is plugged back in, the CF will be gone. If you would like more information about our products, please call our customer service department at 800-547-3888. Thank you, Tina / Essick Air Products
Does this unit require a filter?
Asked by Maineapple January 6, 20183
AnswersYes. One is included with the unit.
What is the noise level observed near this unit when it's operating?
Asked by Seawolf36 December 28, 20173
AnswersIf the fan is set at 1 or 2 there is a hum, but if I set it on 3 it is a bit annoying, but doable. Haven't tried 4; it wasn't necessary. The 2 setting is usually sufficient to maintain the humidity level.
I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO SET CONTROLS

Nope.
I've had this unit for a few years, and am finally purchasing a different unit.
I set the humidity level to 35 and it never reaches 35.
Never stops running even when it runs out of water. I wake up in the morning feeling like my face is cracking. Maybe I got a bad unit I don't know.
I would definitely not recommend buying this.

Hello! Thanks for taking the time to post your review. We are sorry to hear you had an issue with your humidifier. We’d like to help you resolve this, so email us at info@essickair.com. Here are some things that you can try before reaching out: make sure your wick is wet, the 7D6 100 is made for a single, large room, so make sure the door to that room is closed. It is also best to make sure the unit is centrally located and is not placed next to a window or a door leading to the outside. Thanks! -Melissa, AIRCARE

Response from EssickAirProductsJan 13, 2021
Hello, Don! We find that it is easier to slide the bottles straight down and then angle out once the bottle is seated on top of the beg properly. While you will definitely hear a sound coming from the unit while it’s operating, it shouldn’t be disruptive. We’re happy to walk through some troubleshooting with you to ensure that what you’re hearing isn’t a defect. Please give us a call at 800-547-3888 and one of our Customer Service Representatives will walk you through a quick check-up on your unit. Our office hours are 7:00 AM – 6:00 P.M., CST, Monday through Friday. -Melissa, AIRCARE

The humidifier is rated for 1000 square ft apt. I live in an 800 square foot apt with high ceilings. I also have four other humidifiers although smaller. The humidifier cannot raise the humidify above 35%. I attribute this to the heaters that run non stop. Most of my plants are dying.
by LEIGH
Response from EssickAirProductsDec 18, 2020
Hello, Leigh! We are glad you took the time to leave this review, even if we didn’t get all of the stars. Local humidity levels in your area and the physical location of the humidifier can affect coverage. We recommend positioning your humidifier in the most centrally located room of your house (typically your living room). Having your humidifier in the middle of your home helps the humidity spread more easily and evenly. Our square footage estimates are based on homes with tight construction. Older homes, or those with poor insulation or cracks, may have a larger coverage area. If you’d like more help with this, our call center agents are available 7:00 AM – 5:30 PM CST, Monday through Friday. We are happy to help you. Thanks. -Melissa, AIRCARE

Pretty happy with the humidifier you can set the desired humidity level and fan level then just let it run. In my 2 bedroom 2 floor apartment I have to fill it up once a day with it at 40% humidity. For negatives I wish it had a top fill since it does take some arm strength to hold it while filling up 2 gallons of water. Finally I would recommend getting some bacteriostat to treat the water to avoid mold on the filter.

I bought 2 of these humidifiers. They are great! I have forced hot air and it can get very dry in my home. I put one in my living area and one in my bedroom. They keep the air very comfortable. No stuffiness or dry skin. Would buy again!

At high operating speed the top of the filter dries out and the wicking action slows significantly. I use distilled water so mineral build-up is not the problem. The F "fill" indicator has yet to work, even when the tank is empty. Because I move the unit between two rooms, the CF "check filter" reminder may not ever work as, per the manual, it resets when the humidifier is unplugged for more than 60 seconds.
