Can the tank be refilled by simply dumping a bucket of water in the top, or do I have to take the tank off first? Thank you.

No, you must remove the tank from base and fill from the bottom ( not that difficult )

Water entry is via hole at base of tank, which is sealed off from vent at top whilst allowing steam thru. Its a little fiddly in practice only small amount of water leaks as u put it back. If u dont want to carry it, id advise using a watter bottle.

You have to lift the tank off to fill it, but it is the easiest humidifier I have ever used. Easy on and easy off. I highly recommend it.

You have to take the tank off and turn it upside down. Then unscrew lid and fill. Really no problem but two gallons is fairly heavy. I dropped the slippery wet tank and it cracked but repaired it with superglue. Unit works well. Recommended.

You have to buy a pump to send the water back to the tank. It doesn't come with one. Some do but not this one.

don't have to drain the tank . Just take out just enough ( very little ).Enough that you don't get any water draining out of the area at your breaking the connection on top of the tank. Very simple job. Take your time .

No, the easiest solution is to empty the tank and slide it under. Unfortunately, I discovered that after filling my tank with 30 gallons of water. :-)

The tank is on the bottom. The top is the fan housing. The top comes off and you fill the base. You can take the tank (the bottom) to the faucet and fill it , but I find it more convenient to use a container that holds 1-2 gallons and fill the base. Walking around with the base full of water is awkward and it is easy to have water slosh over on the floor. Much easier to take water to the machine.

Just pull out the tank and their is a rubber attach stopper you pull out. Very simple .

Yes. Kind of. Flush and clean all the parts . There is a small brown flap at the bottom of the pump which, if it catches any debris, will cause the tank to lose pressure. Run your finger around it and make sure it is clean.Also, make sure the handle on the pump is tight. It can be a pain. But when it is working properly, it's a great tank.

Unfortunately no. The feeding mechanism is through a sraw like cap which has to be unscrewed in order to fill the tank. There is no way to fill the tank from the top.

It's very simple. Just unscrew it after draining the tank and relieving the pressure and put the new one in using teflon tape.

The top intake tube has a shut off valve. However, u still have to take the outake off by the tube. Which doesn't hinder to much. Shut the valve off. Let it pump what it can off back into the aquarium, And just take the tube off into a bucket for any run off. The next size up from this one, I believe, does have quick releases for the tubes and power.

They recommend hot water, however, I have left it in before and it still cleans very well. The water would be cold of course but it is a spot cleaner so there is no way you can use up the tank every time and to me it was a huge waste of money to dump it. Good for them though because it would mean selling a ton of cleaning solution.

Leave it attached to the tank so that it's readily available to use if you need it. You can store it out of the way until you need it again. Maybe in a top corner of the tank.

I didn't refill mine, I ended up purchasing a new one on Amazon. I do believe there is a You Tube video showing you how to refill the aquarium.

Yes, you can. But it isn't easy. Either rinse the heck out of it (you will be rinsing away quite a few minerals as well, so be aware of that), and lower it in a scoop at a time. Or nearly empty the tank, putting the fish etc. In a bucket. Add product in where you want it, replanting as necessary, then refill. The first is easier, the second better, though difficult with larger tanks.

I am not sure about the first two questions...but yes, you can take the water container off to empty it completely. I wouldn't store it with water standing there anyway!

Yes: take the tank off, turn upside down, remove the white cap to fill with water. Look at the fourth picture with the AC adapter; the white cap to unscrew is on the left bottom side near the power adapter in that picture.

No storage tank included. I use a new 32 gallon garbage can to store the water in, always have some ready in case of a needed emergency water change. The small blue tubing attached to third cylinder (output hosing) can be clamped on the side of garbage can. It does take several hours to fill it. I store it usually for a week or two, seldom longer as I do water changes once a week on my two saltwater tanks. I taped large note on top of lid that says "Fish Tank Water Only". Also we have the can sitting on a wheeled plant stand so it can be moved around. Hope this helps!
