HOW OFTEN SHOULD I REPLACE MY FILTERS?

You should replace your filters only as needed, about every 6-12 months.  If you begin to notice a smell, or if your filters look like they are beginning to mold, it means they need to be cleaned or replaced if the damage is severe.

HOW DO I CLEAN MY BRIZA?

The Briza should be cleaned once every 2 weeks with lukewarm water and a mild detergent or lukewarm water and vinegar to avoid dust, dirt, and calcium build-up.If you are using the Briza in a garage or basement where there is more dust, then cleaning should be increased to weekly. It is best to run the fan for 30 minutes after cleaning and after each use.

  1. Flip the Briza upside down and remove the screws and water tank base.
    • The screws around the edges of the water tank base may be difficult to unscrew the first time around due to movement during shipping. Pliers may be needed to loosen them.
  2. Lift the water tank base, wipe the inside of the tank with lukewarm water and a mild detergent or lukewarm water and vinegar.
  1. Replace water tank base and screws.
  2. Turn on the fan-only function for 30 to 45 minutes to completely dry the device before storing or running.

MY BRIZA IS LEAKING. WHY IS THAT?

The most common cause of leakage occurs when the clear piece of plastic in the water tank base has not been removed prior to initial set up.

Other causes may include:

  • Overfilling – when too much water is added into the tank.
  • Clogged holes – this may occur if you live in an area with hard water and you are not using distilled water. They can also become plugged during shipping, from filter debris.
  • Pump issues – make sure the water pump is intact prior to set up. If your Briza is spitting water from the fan, you may have a pump malfunction.

WHY IS THERE A CLICKING NOISE?

Be sure to double check that the vents are locked tightly in place.  Occasionally during shipping, they will dislodge, and therefore make noise when the swing action is on. They simply need to be adjusted until they click back into place.  In addition, if the filtration pump parts have become loose or have fallen off during shipping, please make sure that they fit securely onto the pump before operating.

 

I CAN’T OPEN THE WATER PANEL?

During shipping the panels slide around and lock the back panel in place. To loosen it, stand in front of your Briza and ‘hug’ it from the front.  From this position, you should be able to grab the backs of the Black/ Grey Panels on the sides, and pull them toward you, and away from the back panel.  This should loosen the back panel enough for you to open it.  Pull up on the moon-shaped piece sticking out by the power cord, and pull out. The panel should pull out.  This process will get easier each time it is done, as the panel gets worn in.  To put the panels BACK ON, line up the arrows on the side of the Briza, and slide into place.  Put the back panel on last.

 

WHAT ARE THE FILTERS MADE OF?

The Briza filters are made from natural wood fibers.

 

WHY IS THERE A SMELL?

There may be a slight scent the first time you run your Briza. This is caused by water passing through the filters, which are made from natural wood fibers. This will go away quickly after your first use.
