Can you run this without the demineralization cartridge?

Yes you can, but you need to use distilled water or you'll have the fine white dust from tap water on everything within the room.

i don't see why not , you will have a little more cleaning if you do't use it , i have found its works pretty good for me so i keep using it ,
195372
Yes you can. I ran it a few days without the cartridge and I had white spots on some furniture. I put the cartridge in and no more spots.
195373
Yes, you can. It's possible of course you might get a lot of white dust depending on the water (distilled is always best) you fill it with but it will run without the cartridge.
195374
Yes. I have a very good and clean water supply and I do not use a cartridge.

Yes. You can run the diffuser without the light. The power light is always illuminated - it's very small.

The answer is;"depends". The system is designed around easy to change cartridges. The standard 1 micron spun fiber cartridge will not remove chemical contamination but WILL remove rust and sediment very well. To remove chemical contamination, you'll need a high density compressed activated carbon filter.

Any of the filters can be removed and the unit will run without them. The light bulb can be unscrewed and removed, or simply turned off.

Yes u can. The environment filter is a better filter. The cartridge is the same .

I run it through my siphon spray gun without cutting it down, I just make sure it is warmed up before I spray it. I have never had any problems doing it this way

UV is replaceable, why are you planning to run this during the cycle process?

Yes, You can but I've only use vinegar to descale/clean the unit. I use water but distilled water is recommended and best.

You can run it independently, although I feel it will not last long that way. If you really want to know try it out.

None of the cartridge filters remove TDS. If you want that, you need reverse osmosis. It's a choice. Some people don't want to remove minerals, just organics and lead, some do.

Yes, but probably best if it's a simmer method. You'd do this without the wood/ceramic steamer unit -- just use the pot and lid.

No.there are cartridges that need to be replaced but if you use filtered or distilled water you do not absolutely have to use those cartridges

I wouldn't recommend the alkaline system for that, but yes you can. I'm fact I emailed their costumer service with a similar request and they sent me the exact little valve and tee kit required to run to fridge and faucet at once. Nice system, can't beat the price or the customer service, that's for sure.

You can if you put a penny inside before the cartridge. What this does is make the smaller cartridge about the lenth of the original one and seals the "mouth" of the top of the cartridge so no gas escapes. I have not only done this but I do not "screw" down the top all the way until I need the air. This way it can't puncture the cartridge. Hope this helps.

yes to both questions - can use distilled water & not use direct water hook up

Hi Fabio,Yes, you could do in this way.But we advise you not to do it excessively as it can decrease the overall life of the product.
