The Myco-Mister Ultrasonic Humidifier’s ultra-fine mist improves mushroom quality and reduces blotch and other diseases. The ultrasonic humidifier atomizes water into ultra-fine particles using the principle of ultrasonic high-frequency oscillation, and diffuses water into the air through a pneumatic device to evenly humidify the air. Settings allow you to adjust humidity levels depending on mushroom species, and LED light indicates when water levels are low. To ensure optimal performance, please read this guide carefully before use.
COMPONENTS
OPERATION
- Make sure the unit is unplugged and the knob is turned all the way to the left (counter-clockwise) and is set to the OFF position. You should be able to feel and hear a small click when the unit is turned from ON to OFF and from OFF to ON.

- When the unit is on, DO NOT remove the water tank.
- DO NOT operate the unit when the water tank is empty.
- Do not add any chemical agents to the base or water tank. Do not add essential oils to the base or water tank.
- Only add essential oils to the specified essential oil tray as outlined in this manual. (See Fig. 3 Exploded Diagram)
- Before cleaning or moving the unit, turn off and disconnect the plug from its power source.
- When in operation, never place your hand inside the base or near the atomizer as it is dangerous and may cause electrocution.
- Do not add hot water above 104 °F to the water tank to avoid discoloration and distortion.
- Do not plug the unit into any type of power source with wet hands to avoid the risk of electric shock.
- Connect only the electrical plug to a secure wall socket.
- Ideal operating environment: Temperature: 41-104 °F, Humidity: <80% RH.
- IMPORTANT: Using tap water with a high mineral content aka “hard water” with any humidifier can cause a fine white dust to be emitted. To avoid this, use distilled or de mineralized water.
- Do not place any metals, chemicals, or detergents into the water tank or base; may cause poor atomization.
- Never pour out the remaining water from the base without unplugging and powering down the unit (power turned to OFF), otherwise the atomizer will burn out immediately.
OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
- Place the unit on a firm, flat and dry surface.
- Keep the humidifier away from children and infants.
- DO NOT use this appliance in any kind of inflammable environment.
- Keep the unit away from any heat source, i.e. heaters, and furnaces, and avoid direct sunlight.
