Use It Exclusively Now for the second year, I use this product exclusively. From October through March, my humidifer gets a workout, being used at least every night in the bedroom. This product keeps the humidifer clean, smelling good, and appears to exdend the filter wick life. I have had no sinus infections for the second year in a row - and used to have them on a regular basis. Of course, I have nothing scientific to prove its the ant-bacteria treatment, but that's the only thing different I am doing as far as air quality treatment in the bedroom. Impossible directions for use The directions for use on this bottle say to add one capful of liquid to a gallon of water. Given the shape of the cap and an internal seal-ring, the volume you'd get would be about 1/2 teaspoon. The old green bottle with yellow top had a cap that could be used for measuring, the cap volume was about one tablespoon. When I phoned Essick Air, customer service told me to 'just pour a little out, whatever you think is a good amount.' About two years' ago Essick Air switched from the green bottle w yellow cap to the blue bottle w white cap, but they have never updated their labeling (an EPA violation), and never updated the images on their website or on Amazon.com. You will frequently see the green bottle offered for sale, but only the blue bottle will be delivered! I saved a couple of old green bottles and now I transfer the liquid from the blue bottle to the green one so I have a measuring device readily available. Great Bacteriostatic Our home humidifier is on non stop. We had purchased Essick Humidifier Bacteriostatic Treatment when we purchased the humidifier and have an excellent result. We never have a slime or bacteria problem and I only refill the humidifier once a week.
