Thank you for purchasing The Care Free

Humidifier Evaporative Humidifier by Hunter Fan
Company. Please read and save these instructions
to receive the maximum benefit and performance
from your humidifier.
The Care Free®
Humidifier 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.
• Built-in Antimicrobial Properties
– The plastic
parts and the PermaWick™ filter 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 plastic and
PermaWick™ filter in the humidifier. These
properties 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®
Humidifier
Evaporative Humidifier produces no white dust
that can settle on furniture or be inhaled.
