AC Infinity ClOUDFORGE T3 - Features: Achieving optimal humidity levels is crucial for successful plant growth, and this innovative humidifier is designed to help you do just that. Its state-of-the-art EC ultrasonic vaporizer produces up to 10 levels of moisture output, allowing you to control the moisture levels in your grow space precisely. The onboard controller features smart humidity and timer programming, and the corded precision humidity sensor provides accurate readings to ensure swift responses to environmental changes. With its backlit display, this humidifier is easy to use, and it even includes an auto-start function with backup memory. The device is equipped with an automatic shutoff system that protects it when the water reservoir runs dry, and it includes a 4.5L water tank, piping, and an extendable tube that can reach over 4 feet in length. This allows you to direct humidity to specific areas of your grow space. The humidifier is part of the UIS™ platform of growing devices and smart controllers, like the AC Infinity Controller 69. Syncing with your lights, exhaust, and other devices provides a comprehensive solution for advanced plant cultivation. With app control, dynamic climate triggers, grow cycles, scheduling, alerts, and more, you'll have complete control over your grow room's environment. SMART HUMIDITY CONTROL Featured above: Onboard Controls on CloudForge T3 Humidifier.  Pictured above: Controlling humidity through your Controller 69, purchased separately. The Low Humidity Trigger feature will activate your device when the relative humidity in your environment reaches or drops below your set level. This feature is commonly used with devices such as humidifiers, which can help raise humidity levels when they become too low. If you set the trigger to 50%, your device will turn on when the humidity drops to 50% or below and turn off when the humidity increases above 50%. This humidifier is equipped with an onboard controller that features smart humidity and timer programming, allowing for easy adjustment of four levels of moisture output using onboard controls. A UIS controller can increase the output to 10 levels, providing even greater control.   Additional Info CloudForge Manual FAQ Q: Do I need special water in my humidifier? A: Using distilled, demineralized, or reverse osmosis water is highly recommended when using ultrasonic humidifiers. This is because these types of humidifiers produce a fine mist by vibrating a small metal plate at an ultrasonic frequency. The minerals found in tap water can become airborne and settle as white dust, typically composed of calcium. Q: How do you clean a humidifier?A: First, unplug the device and detach the tank from the base. Empty any remaining water from the tank. Combine two cups of distilled water and one tablespoon of vinegar in the base. Allow the mixture to sit for five minutes. Then, use the provided brush to remove any residue from the nebulizers. Discard the vinegar mixture and dry the base with a cloth. Finally, refill the tank and replace the lid; the humidifier is now ready to use again! Q: How frequently should a humidifier be cleaned?A: How frequently you need to clean the humidifier will be influenced by how often you use it and the water type. It is advised to clean the unit every week, but if you clean it less frequently, you may need to increase the cleaning solution's strength because mineral buildup will become more calcified. Q: What is the appropriate humidifier size for my room?A: It depends on your ambient relative humidity (rH), your desired rH level, and the size of your room. This humidifier can output ~8 fl oz/hr on full blast. This running at full power can add 1.18 gallons of moisture to your air in ~18 hours.  We find the T3 (4.5L) suitable for smaller tents like a 2x2 - 2x4 area. The CloudForge T7 (15L) is suitable for larger rooms. The T7 adds up to 4 gallons of moisture in ~12 hours.  That being said, most tents won't require that much moisture, requiring refilling sometimes once a week or less, so dialing it in with the Controller 69 will keep you within 1% of your target humidity range and only have the humidifier coming on when it is required to increase rH.
