After turning humidifier on,how long does it take to see a mist?

Usually only a few seconds. Make sure you didn't fill it too high. Mine would not produce a mist when I filled it over the line a little.

Almost immediately or let's say a couple of seconds. You have to turn the mist button or else if you just turn the "light" switch. No mist is coming out.

It's strange but the more you use it the better it works. Just make sure to clean it after every use.

I have the unit on my night stand and I have never noticed any mist at all.

You take it out of the clear shrink wrapping and set it on a stable level surface where you need to dehumidify. Every week or so, check the legend panel on the front of the humidifier to see if the silica has changed to pink(should have started at blue). If it is pink then the silica is saturated from the humidity in the area and needs to be refreshed by taking the unit off its base and plugged into an outlet for 5 to 8 hours. The silica will then change back to blue and you can put it back to its normal place to dehumidify your area again.

Unit is ready. When is blue is ready. Then it will turn pink. Mine works perfect for my medium size bathroom. Instructions says it will take 2-3 weeks to be all pink but it takes 4-5 days in my humidity bathroom. When all.blue I plug it in outside of.my house where an outlet is. To deliver all the humidity. It says not to leave it.more than 10 hours, one day I left it like 24 hours, it was hot but it kept working perfectly. I try to keep it plugged for 8 hours. :)

Fill the tank with water. Soak the blue cartridge in water for a few min until full. Fill the base with water. Seal up the tank and place it on the base. Turn the humidifier on. It may take a few minutes to start seeing the mist.

That's about how high you can see the mist go, but the oils stay suspended in the air for quite awhile... Up to a few hours.

The answer by "brbrigs" is correct! I just received mine in the mail and set it up and there was no mist coming out. Apparently I filled my tank with too much water and it looked like the basin at the base was a huge pool of water. I dumped that out and poured a few cups of water out of the tank. I restarted the humidifier and there is a strong mist coming out now! Try that. I think it'll work.

No. the unit's motor continues to run but the humidifier itself shuts down as long as the humidity is at the desired level. Then it will kick back on fully when the humidity rises about the desired settings There is a timer that can be set for 2 or 4 hours. Then the unit will shut totally off but will not come back on until it is turned on manually.

You might need to hold the mist button longer. I sometimes have to do that with my light button.

At start up mine needs water about every 18 hours. Once the humidity has risen, it needs water about every 36 hours.

Hi, I think it also depends on if you just have it on for humidity or if you have it on as diffuser. I have never had it 10/12 hours or if I did, very rarely. I had a regular diffuser that I bought not from amazon and that one truly lasts. its called the premium whisper diffuser off abundanthealth. This one is ok, but isn't exactly how I would have wanted it to work. takes more ti fill and clean where as the other one I had was quite a sinch. Anyway, sometimes the wate lasts a bit longer than 3 hours, but rarely the 10/12 hours. Maybe I am doing something wrong on my end. Hope I helped some.

Make sure that the little rubble black thing is solidly inside the opening in the back above the usb connection. If you have used it before, sediment may be clogging the tiny little hole where the mist comes out. I use a paperclip or something else that is slightly sharp to scrape across the hole to clear it. Usually this takes care of the problem and it will start misting after about 5 to ten minutes.

mist was almost instantly for me. certainly less than a minute. the trick is lining up the silver dots perfectly. wiggling a bit (and rotating lid 180 degrees if that doesn't work) did the trick for me.

I never saw any mist come out but I did smell the vapor. Like some of the others have mentioned this doesn't serve he purpose of neither a dehumidifier or an air cleaner...it probably puts out maybe 2 tablespoons of water per day. To answer your question, unfortunately I would probably have to say yes it's normal.

There is a constant mist setting that typically runs for a couple of hours and an intermittent setting that runs for approx 6+ hours.

When you switch on the unit a blue LED and Vapor Mist turns on if there is water in it. When the water dissipates the LED turns red and the Vaporizer turns OFF but, you still have to fully turn off the RED LED by the switch. If you run it full speed the average 16 oz water bottle will run out in about 5-6 hours, I use 20 oz 3/4 speed it last most of night. It will drop water on surrounding area be prepared for the specially on high speed...It helped me break a serious nose spray ADDICTION along with taking OTC Zertec drug, I tried many before finding one that worked for me!.

I have had mine for 6 years and on both settings it provides an invisible mist. However, you need to make sure that the wick is placed properly.
