For your AIRCARE 5D6 700 Mini Console Humidifier, wick replacement frequency hinges on your water's mineral content. Hard water often necessitates more frequent changes. Essick Air recommends replacing wicks at the start of each humidifying season. Look out for signs like reduced humidifier performance or discolored, worn wicks, which indicate it's time for a replacement. Using the Essick Air Bacteriostatic (part #1970) can also help maintain wick cleanliness and extend their lifespan.
