Humidifier Plus Evaporative
Humidifi er has a unique patented design with
several innovative features:
• Low Maintenance – Other humidifi ers have
paper fi lters that need to be replaced every
few months. Our exclusive PermaWick™
fi lter saves time and money. It’s designed to
last season after season, saving up to $45 a
year. No wet paper odors either.
• Pump System – By dispersing water from
the top of the PermaWick™ fi lter, stagnant
water around the PermaWick™ filter is
eliminated, and the buildup of mineral
residue that can clog the fi lter and impede
performance is eliminated.
NOTE: The fi lter has a coating on the wick
which may make it appear old or used, but
is actually new.
• Built-in Antimicrobial Properties – The
plastic parts and the PermaWick™ fi lter have
built-in antimicrobial properties to inhibit the
growth of bacteria, mold and fungi that may
affect these parts.
NOTE: This product contains antimicrobial
properties which are built-in to inhibit the
growth of bacteria which may affect the
