How It WorksThis model humidifier uses a two-step approach to eliminate potentially harmful microorganisms from the water before they are spread with the mist into the air:
- UV bulb, located inside the base of the humidifier, shines on the water through a special glass tube as it passes from the cold water reservoir to the hot water reservoir
- Boiling takes place in the hot water reservoir just before the mist is distributed by fan to the air in the room
