To clean a Frida humidifier, follow these steps:
1. Unplug the humidifier from the power source and dismantle all removable parts, such as the water tank, nozzle, and filters.
2. Empty any remaining water from the water tank and rinse it thoroughly with warm water. Use a soft brush or sponge to remove any build-up or residue.
3. Fill a bowl or sink with a mixture of water and a mild detergent. Place the removable parts in the soapy water and let them soak for a few minutes.
4. Gently scrub the parts with a soft brush or cloth to remove any dirt or mineral deposits. Pay extra attention to areas that are prone to buildup, such as the nozzle and filter.
5. Rinse all the parts under running water to ensure all soap residue is removed. Make sure to rinse the water tank thoroughly, as any leftover detergent can affect the air quality when the humidifier is in use.
6. For more thorough disinfection, mix equal parts of white vinegar and water in a bowl. Submerge the removable parts in the vinegar solution and let them soak for around 30 minutes. Vinegar helps to remove any mold or bacteria that may have accumulated in the humidifier.
7. After soaking, scrub the parts again with a soft brush or cloth. Rinse them thoroughly under running water to remove any vinegar residue.
8. Wipe the exterior of the humidifier with a damp cloth to remove any dust or dirt that may have accumulated.
9. Reassemble the cleaned parts and make sure everything is properly fitted. Fill the water tank with clean water and place it back in the humidifier.
10. Plug the unit back into the power source and enjoy clean, moisturized air.
