The evaporator wick soaks up water.Thefanpushesthedryroomairthroughthe moist wick and emits it as a sufficiently moisturizedair.Throughthedirectedguidingoftheairflow, nearly constant humidification is possible at every water level. Therefore, the unit creates optimum air moisture, without additional control units being necessary.
