The Vick Cool Mist Humidifier produces a cool mist through cyclone technology. The
motor-driven impeller draws up water through a pickup tube. Centrifugal force throws the
water through a screen into the vortex chamber, breaking up the water into a superfine, cool
mist restoring healthy humidity levels to dry indoor air.
