Air O Swiss Humidifier 7142
There are many excellent humidifier models within the Air O Swiss brand but we’ll talk specifically about the Air O Swiss Model 7142 humidifier.
The 7142 Air O Swiss is a dual humidifier with both warm and cool air options. It will work to humidify a room not only quickly but also quietly. It will effectively humidify a room that is equal to 860 sq. ft. One of the most important things is to be able to control the level of humidification in the home and with the hygrostat that is included will allow you to do so keeping the humidity levels right and the unit allows you to aim the resulting fine mist that wherever you need it to go.
When it comes to humidifiers mineral buildup is a big concern and the 7142 takes that into account. The water tank comes outfitted with a demineralization cartridge that is replaceable in order to put a stop to the buildup of mineral or lime scale residues.
The preheating option that is standard in the unit prevents that cool and clammy feeling that is so widespread with standard humidifiers. Their ionic stick ensures that the water is bacteria free.

Cleaning
When you’re cleaning your tank you should make sure that you do this at least one time per week and make sure that you do this with water. You don’t want to use any detergents. If you decide to run the machine with the preheating function rather than just the cool mode you can change your cleaning schedule to be once every two weeks rather than every one week. You’ll want to make sure that you follow all of the manufacturer guidelines including using the decalcification agents to remove the deposits from the fogging/evaporation chamber. Make sure that you rinse out completely and dry.
Replacements
The ionic silver stick, which is the patented solution for the killing of the bacteria and viruses, is long lasting but should be replaced yearly. The demineralization cartridge, which is the piece responsible for the prevention of mineral residue or white dust buildup, needs to be replaced every 2 months, 3 months at the most. If your water is harder you’ll likely need to replace this piece more often to make sure that it is working effectively.
Product Usage
Manufacturer Note: To get the best possible product performance it is recommended that the humidifier be kept off of the floor at a height of at least 2 feet.
The reasoning for this is that the mist will have the opportunity for evaporation before it hits your floor ensuring that there isn’t the possibility of your carpet or wood flooring from getting damp.
