Our recommendation for accessories for the hygienic use of humidifiers:

The humidifiers from Trotec only require tap water for the humidification process. Other manufacturers‘ models generally require distilled water. We strongly recommend that you use a suitable hygiene agent to prevent germs, algae, mould or bacteria from forming in the humidifier’s water tank. Such formations are often accompanied by strong smells which can be especially pungent or nauseating.

The choice of hygiene agent depends on the water quality (chalk content), the effective evaporation performance and very much on one’s own personal standards of hygiene. As a rule, one hygiene agent is enough though. We do, however, recommend that you use a combination of both the SecoSan Stick and Water Fresh in rooms which are subjected to high levels of dust or other forms of contamination:

SecoSan Stick

Just pop it into the water and the water remains clean – simple yet effective !

SecoSan Stick

The SecoSan Stick with its international patented working principle is the ideal solution when it comes to keeping water hygienically clean – environmentally-friendly to use, bio-neutral and drinking water certified!

Simply put the SecoSan Stick into the water tank you wish to keep clean and let the stick do the rest. The SecoSan Stick works antimicrobially against germs, algae, mould and bacterial growth.

There are also different stick sizes available depending on the capacity of the water tank you are using. And when you change the water all you have to do is take out the stick and put it into the new tank.

Trotec gives a full year’s guarantee on the stick’s effectivity. Other products have to be refreshed or refilled – SecoSan doesn’t. Only once every 12 months.

The Working Principle Of SecoSan:

The international patented working principle of SecoSan is based on the bacteria resistant properties of silver. A special surface and an ion reservoir enable the silver ions to be given off in controlled amounts. The concentration of silver is therefore harmless throughout while the working principle remains unchanged for a full 12 months – guaranteed. This is what makes SecoSan so different from other silver products like nano-silver, for example. Because SecoSan’s unique working principle is protected by patent law throughout the world and fulfills even the most stringent of food guidelines. That’s the reason why SecoSan is also for use in drinking water!


“Water Fresh”

Water Fresh

Like the SecoSan Stick, “Water Fresh“ prevents the formation of germs and algae. This hygiene agent also reduces the surface tension of the water which in turn leads to an increase in evaporation performance.

The product life of the evaporation filter can be extended by reducing the number of mineral deposits. “Water Fresh” is very yielding: one cap (25 ml) is enough for 10 litres (2.2.gals) of water.
