Thank you for purchasing The Care Free® Humidifier Plus Evaporative Humidifier by Hunter Fan Company. Please read and save these instructions to receive the maximum benefit and performance from your humidifier.

How the Humidifier Works

The Care Free® 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.

•Pump 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 Plus Evaporative

Humidifier 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 the PermaWick™ filter. This is normal and does not affect performance. If you would like to clean these deposits away, please see CLEANING THE HUMIDIFIERAND WATER TANK.
