How the Care Free
Evaporative Humidifier Works
The Care Free
Ultra Evaporative Humidifier has a unique,
®
patented design with several innovative features:
• Wickless Humidifier – Hunter's exclusive system does not
require a wick to create humidity. Water is transported up the
tube and is dispersed by centrifugal force against the Atom-
izer. The tiny water particles created from this impact are then
evaporated by the oncoming air stream and the moist air is
released through the exhaust vents beneath the Water Tank.
• Simple Pump System – By dispersing water via centrifugal
force through openings in the funnel pump, stagnant water in
the reservoir is eliminated and the buildup of mineral residue
that can clog conventional pump systems and impede perfor-
mance is eliminated.
• Built-In Antimicrobial Properties – The plastic parts in this
humidifier and the filter have built-in antimicrobial properties to
inhibit the growth of bacteria, mold and fungi that may affect
these parts.
NOTE: The antimicrobial properties built-into this humidifier do
not extend to the water, humidified air or users. Conduct routine
cleaning and maintenance based upon use and individual
conditions.
• No White Dust – The Care Free
fier produces no white dust that can settle on furniture or be
inhaled.
NOTE: You may notice mineral deposits accumulating in the
tank base or on other components. This is normal and comes
with regular usage conditions. If you would like to remove these
deposits and maintain humidifier performance, please see the
section CLEANING THE HUMIDIFIER AND THE WATER
TANK.
