## Description

Product Description The EV100 sets the standard for whole-room humidification using natural evaporation, which eliminates the mist and messy white dust other humidifiers leave behind. Along with its modern, minimalistic design, the EV100 features push-button controls and multiple humidity settings, allowing you to personalize your humidity experience. Its crystal-clear tank was designed so that one glance shows you when to refill and, when it's time, it's a breeze - a removable cap simplifies refills. The easily cleanable humidifier and grill, integrated handles and other safety features ensure a comfortable breathing environment with peace of mind, along with a 5-year satisfaction guarantee. From the Manufacturer IMPORTANT INTERNATIONAL DISCLAIMER: This item is built to meet U.S. voltage requirements and may not function properly when used in conjunction with external devices that alter or convert voltage or frequency of electricity. Improper use or shipping the product outside the U.S. will void all warranties.

Review: Quiet, efficient, no white dust. Would buy again. - Very happy with this humidifier. I put in our lower level family room; works quietly and efficiently. Doesn’t leave any white dust since has a wicking filter; the dust I had problems with in the mist type of humidifier. Fills easily and may be the best humidified of its size I’ve bought over the years.
Review: There are no two ways about it - Either you will have white dust to clean up if you buy a cheap humidifier or you can buy this Vornado and change the wick filters now and then and you'll have no white dust. This is my third Vornado humidifier. I also own the EVAP40 with 2 tanks but that one alone couldn't handle the entire 1500 square foot home. So I purchased this one for the master bedroom, which measures 15 x18 feet. It works fine and the fan on low is quiet enough I don't lose any sleep. I've had this a month and no leaking at all. I'm thinking the people who complain about leaking either don't read instruction manuals or didn't test for minute cracking after unboxing. The manual says to do this. Mine was fine, so I had it set up in less than 5 minutes. The water container is easy to fill and carry. I have hard water where I live and the wick filters last me 7-8 weeks. So depending on when I set the humidifiers up for the winter season, I only need to replace them once. Sometimes I can get by with only 1 set of filters by soaking them in vinegar and then replacing them back into the humidifier. BTW, the Vornado customer service is excellent. On my original EVAP40 I bought in 2008, the fan motor started making a strange sound only 3 days before the warranty expired (a 5 year warranty). I contacted Vornado and they immediately sent a replacement no charge. All they wanted in return was the cut off cord of the old unit. The EVAP40 I'm using now is 11 years old. I also have several Vornado air circulator fans that are almost 15 years old and even now, those work as new.

## Features

- INTELLIGENT HUMIDIFICATION — The EV100 evaporative humidifier automatically senses humidity levels and airflow needs, adjusting output to maintain balanced moisture. The 1-gallon water tank delivers up to 1 gallon of humidification per day, helping relieve dry air while preventing over-humidification.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If only using this at night and with distilled water only, does it need to be emptied and dried out every day?**
A: If it is not running during the day and the wicks are sitting wet with no air flowing through them, you have a potential for bacterial growth.  I would run it all the time.  The fan running with the unit is out of water will not harm the humidifier and drying out the filter wicks will help prevent bacterial growth and will not harm the filter wicks.

**Q: which filter does it use?  MD1-002 or MD1-0034?**
A: The EV100 uses the MD1-0034 Filter Wicks.  The MD1-0002 Filter Wicks are too thick.

**Q: Can you use tap water?**
A: You can use tap water but the filters will last longer with distilled or reverse osmosis water.  Minerals from the tap water will be trapped in the filter and eventually prevent the filter from absorbing any water.  The filter would then need to be changed.  Under normal conditions a filter wick will last 4 to 8 weeks.   You would need to compare the extended useful life of the filter wick using distilled or reverse osmosis water with the cost of the water compared to the price of the filter wicks.

**Q: Does this use a gravity-fed water tank that lets air in with a 'glug glug glug' sound?  Like the pet water bowls.**
A: Yes, but you don't really hear the glug glug sound. It's a nice unit - we use it in our BR.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well but too loud
*by C***N on December 22, 2022*

I looked at reviews before buying and purchased even with the many problems reported. Almost all reported problems are not true, I'll address those below. In general, the unit works as expected, humidifying a small space effectively, but it's just too loud for my tastes. The only thing it's missing is auto-shutoff when dry if you're looking for that feature. Its lowest humidity level is 40% which is too high for freezing climates, causing excessive window condensation. Leaking: there is an entire page of the instructions dedicated to checking and testing your unit for leaks. Mine didn't leak and if yours does, it's either a cracked tray from shipping or user error (for example, the first time my spouse refilled it, they didn't seat the tank correctly into the base). Heed their warnings and test run your unit where it won't water damage the surface it's on if it leaks. Humidifying: the unit absolutely does work if you use it correctly. The reviews that claim it does nothing are clearly user error. The bottom edge of the wick must be completely touching the base because the water level is only 1/4" deep, if that. Second, it must be covering all the air intake slots--I found that I had to adjust it after it was wet (lift the white fan housing off but leave the grey housing on the base to adjust). The airflow doesn't bypass the wick and the wick doesn't flop over like two users claimed. Remember, this is an evaporative humidifier so if your ambient air already has high humidity, it's not going to work well, just like evaporative coolers don't work well in humid climates. One other thing to keep in mind if you use this on carpet, the full tank will make the unit tilt that direction so water won't adequately fill the space around the wick, therefore, you need to put something under the tank part of the base to level it out--I used a ceramic drink coaster. Blue lights: the two tiny LEDs for fan speed and humidity level go dim after 20-30 seconds and are very dim. Either other reviewers had defective units or Vornado addressed the issue in the newer iterations. These lights are not an issue unless you're looking directly into them. Cycling on/off constantly: mine works fine, cycling on/off at a reasonable interval. If yours is erratic, it's defective. Noise: this is the only issue I'd have to agree with other reviewers--it's too loud. I bought the smaller EV100 to use in our bedroom and even the low fan speed is way too loud. Our Vornado Evap40 on low is practically silent compared to the EV100 (it's not that quiet, but you get the drift). There is a definite change in pitch from high to low, but it isn't much. I've contacted Vornado support via email questioning this issue and I'll update my review if it was a defect or working as expected. If it is normal, I'll only run it during the day and shut it off at night. If you like white noise then it won't be an issue for you.
