How to Clean Vicks Cool Mist Humidifier - Weekly Cleaning with Vinegar 

Thank You my Humidifier is working again!

Thank you so much, very detailed and helpful. Always wondered if the top vent would come out for cleaning.

Thank you! I cleaned it and it worked! A free fix!

Very helpful...thank you 👍🏾😃

I think what it was meaning is to put 1 cup of vinegar to 1 gallon of water and pour into the base as needed and then the rest into the tank

This was very helpful. Thanks for posting!

It seems that this cool one is much better than the worm one that I feel like would catch on fire in the middle of the night to clean.

I use distilled water on the humidifier (not tap water). So I really don't have all that white buildup on it.. do I still need to go thru the cleaning process every week or is it better to skip a week in between cleanings?

Very helpful!! Thanks!!

Thanx for the review. Can you suggest a link where I could buy demineralisation (UK-English) cartridge, or just kindly let know me the model name or number or that cartridge. And do I dry them(24hr) before bleaching, or can I bleach them straight afterwards & then dry them? MaybeI dry them sooner with a hair dryer 🤔. Not direct heat off-course that might weaken the rubber sealant. Just for fast air drying. Maintenance was something I did not review before my wife ordered it. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Thank you. :)

Thank you!

Please make sure any electronic devices are unplugged before cleaning. Thanks for the video just got this humidifier

Do you have to disinfect it with bleat or can you always just use vinegar

Hey I just saw your video, I appreciate it, but I was wondering how do u clean the filter part, can u help?

On weekly basis cleaning do we just need to soak and clean it with vinegar or do we also need to follow the disinfecting part? Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks

How about using a blow dryer to dry it?

After we rinse all the vinegar and bleach we use a hand towel to dry the humidifier. It takes a little extra time but ready to use the same day or packed away.

Every how often do you clean with vinegar? Once a week or daily after every use? I read somewhere you have to dump out of the water daily ? Thank you!

I put vinegar in a container but the oil doesn't melt why?

Can you use apple cider vinegar?

Forgot to unplug huh lol

What was that blue part she took out of it again?

Hi I put essential oil in my tank and it got stained so ugly 😭😭 is there a way to remove it????

Where do you get the demineralization cartridge?

Thanks

Why the hell it’s so difficult to clean , the manufacturer don’t have their way to clean it ?

lol. come on now. its not rocket science to fill the tank with 1 cup of vinegar put the lid back on, and then set it up right maybe back in the water tray? that way the vinegar is soaking all the parts that would be sitting in water if it were being used. common sense aint so common i guess.
