>...If you're using >high-mineral water, changing to distilled water should help too. > Wilkinson Piano Service > Portland, Oregon Dear List, This statement caught my attention. I notice in one of Dampp-Chaser's publications (PN 20252), it says "...the Low Water Warning Light goes out only if water conducts electricity...light will not go out if water is pure, such as distilled water...unless you add one pinch of salt each time pads are changed. A small amount (1/2 cup) of tap water will provide the same result as the pinch of salt." I have never substituted distilled water for tap water, but that "pinch of salt" thing, it says each time pads are changed rather than each time distilled water is added. Is that a misprint? If not, that's pretty incredible that one pinch of salt will satisfy the LWL requirements for the life of each set of pads and all the humidifier tank refills that occur during that life. Keith A.
