I have a Hunter Carefree Humidifier Plus. When I
We were having the same problem. Here is how I fixed it but its hard to explain...
I took the main white part off and laid it side ways on a table looking inside there is a tube that goes from the top towards the main fan then connects to a plastic part that is shaped like a "p" In the middle part of the "p" you an see I tiny little gear. I manually turned the gear with a paper clip a few times and it worked. I had no idea what I was doing but I was determined!!!
Vicks hot steam cord gets really hot
My cord is also getting very hot after being plugged in for just a few minutes. Is there a cause for concern here? It's not even a year old, bought in January of 2022.

Medicine
You don't. There are some solutions you can but for it to make sure it doesn'y get slimmy, but that's about it. It works quite well without any medicine, just works great!! Ever since I bought it six years ago my son loves it and his room gets nice and cool and he can sleep and breathe much better at night. Good luck and hoepfully this was helpful to you. Have a nice and pleasant day.
Hi have a vicks warm
The easiest ans simplest way to clean it, is too mix a 50/50 solution of White Vinegar & Bottled Distilled Water (enough to fill the tank) and fill the the tank with the solution. Allow it to set for 30 minutes, then turn the unit ON. Allow it to run, until the tank is half empty. Pour out the remaining solution and fill with the Bottled Distilled Water Turn the unit ON and run until the tank is almost empty. Following these instruction will remove all the lime and calcium build up in the unit.
Tip: Using bottled Distilled Water rather than Tap Water, will totally eliminate calcium and lime buildup.
I hope this helped you and thanks for choosing FixYa.
Humidifier leaves film everywhere!
I talked to Kaz, a manufacturer of humidifiers, and they said this is referred to as "white dust". It's simply the minerals from your water settling on your furniture...I had to same problem so I called the manufacturer.
He said it's not dangerous but that I should use distilled water in my humidifier from now on since my water will always do that. He also stressed the importance of cleaning the unit weekly with a bleach and vinegar solution per the manufacturers specs.
