If you have a Habitat Monitor humidification system, make sure you change the wick filters every 6 months to a year. Nothing but distilled water was ever put into this:

I have one in my humidor and that one looks like he was using coffee in it! Why two wicks? Mine only uses one wick and it is open at the bottom, does that mean I'm not cool!

I'm usually able to recycle a wick by immersing it in a mild water and bleach solution, rinsing it, and letting it air out until the other wick needs replacing. I use the same solution to wash out the reservoir. if I don't do it about every five or six months, I notice a funky smell coming from the Aristocrat.

yum i bet you could spread that on a sandwich

Man, that is gross. I just got an Aristocrat 48 plus last month and I replaced the filter that the previous owner had in it. I contacted Bob and ordered a 3 pack to have on standby.

Yes moki, that happens. Airborne crap and all. I mean how long did it take your roomba to look like that??


You can get the wicks directly from Habitat Monitor.

So far mine has stayed totally clean, although I have heard stories of them gunking up even within the first few weeks.
