does the unit shut off just by moisture or wiping the glass at the controls?

Dear John, This model does have several safety features that will automatically shut off the heating elements. For example, it will shut of the heating element when a spillover is detected. If you are trying to wipe up spills near the controls, we recommend you use the clean lock/child lock function which will avoid any changes to the controls while wiping that area. My favorite shutoff feature is the timer which lets you decide exactly how long the heating element should be on and will shut it off when the time expires. This model will also shut off the element with a warning indicator if an improper material is placed on an element, or if a proper pan is not placed within 90 seconds of the element being turned on.

Yes once the humidty level is reached the unit shuts off I empty the container push it back in & the unit starts up automaticly ......... I'm very happy with my humidfier

The unit doesn't shut off, but eventually it will power down. It goes into a self-cleaning mode to get rid of any build up. It can smell a little chemically, but it isn't dangerous.

There is a seperate power button/switch that controls the humidifier on the back of the fan. When the tank level gets low, it shuts off automatically.

mine does not go off with slight movements .. only when i punch the glass lightly .. keep in mind if it does go off it is very loud and there is an on/off switch on the unit that will turn it off.

No, the unit is either on or it's off. It does not shut itself down. I leave mine on 24/7 since it draws very little power when not playing music.

Funny you should point that out! The unit I received DOES have a shutdown cycle. The picture is indeed inaccurate.

Mine has never shut off due to overheating. The only safety shut off I know about on the unit is a spring loaded switch on the bottom. Make sure you can press it down and it springs back then try placing it on a hard surface, like the floor, to make sure the switch is pressing down and try it. If this doesn't work then the problem is inside the unit which means proceed at your own risk.

Yes it turns off automatically as soon as the water you measure and add for steaming is gone.

wait...think it might shut off fan if you hit the humidity level u request...could set it low enuf and i guess it would never reach shutoff

On my unit the fan will only turn off if the unit shuts down due to a full bucket. Otherwise the compressor cycles on and off depending on what you have the humidity control set at, but the fan runs all the time. Like the service rep told you, the unit won't know what the room humidity is if the fan isn't moving the room's air through the unit.

the unit shuts off when the water container is full with the 70 pints. if a hose is used instead of the container it shuts off when it reaches your programed humidity setting. hope this helps.

Not sure what you mean by shut off...it is set to provide water at a certain temperature. If the "incoming" water is already at the set temperature it will not come on. If the temperature of the incoming water is not at the temperature you set the unit at, it will come on with as much heating capacity that is needed to reach the set temperature.

I don't believe the shutting off is caused by the microswitch. This problem is the control panel.

It only shuts off if the water level gets to low. I use the remote to turn it on and off and to pick a different color. I love mine!!

I'm not sure Barry, it probably turns off to protect itself. I turn mine off when it's not being used
