Vornado EV200 Is Making a Bubbling or Gurgling Sound
A bubbling or gurgling sound can be normal on the EV200 when water is being dispensed from the tank into the base.
Vornado EV200 Is Not Producing Enough Humidity
The EV200 owner guide points first to low water, a reached humidity set point, blocked airflow, or settings that are too low.
Vornado EV200 Fan Keeps Stopping
The fan can stop normally when the EV200 reaches the selected humidity set point, then resume when room humidity falls below that target.
Vornado EV200 Wicks Harden or Need Replacement Too Often
Chemically softened water can shorten wick life because added sodium can harden the EV200 wicks.
Vornado EV200 Will Not Power On
Start with the outlet and household breaker/GFCI. If the EV200 appears damaged or still will not power on, Vornado directs the owner to stop use and contact service.
