Humidifier plus Evaporative

Humidifier has a unique patented design with
several innovative features:
• Low Maintenance – other humidifiers have
paper filters that need to be replaced every
few months. our exclusive permaWick™ filter
saves time and money. it's designed to last
season after season, saving up to $45 a year.
no wet paper odors either.
• Regulated Release™ System – By dispersing
water from the top of the permaWick™ filter,
stagnant water around the permaWick™ filter
is eliminated, and the buildup of mineral
residue that can clog the filter and impede
performance is eliminated. noTE: The filter
has a coating on the wick which may make it
appear old or used, but is actually new.
