    Thank you  for purchasing The  Care 
Free® Humidier Evaporative Humidier 
by Hunter   Fan Company. Please read 
and save  these instructions to  receive 
the maximum benet  and performance 
from your humidier.
The Hunter® Evaporative  Humidier has  a unique  patented design  with several  innovative 
features:
  •  Low  Maintenance – Other  humidiers have paper  lters that  need to be  replaced every 
few months. Our exclusive PermaWick™ lter 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™ l-
ter, stagnant water around the PermaWick™ lter is elimnated, and the buildup of mineral 
residue that can clog the lter and impede performance is eliminated. NOTE: The 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 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 plastic and lter in the humidier. These properties do not 
extend to the  water, humidied air or  users. Conduct  routine cleaning and  maintenance 
based upon use and individual conditions.
