DEAR CUSTOMER,
The Venta Original Air Humidifier creates healthy humidity and naturally reduces harmful substances in the air. It is incredibly simple to use and requires no complex technical knowledge. Simply fill with water – no need for humidifier mats or filters. The humidifier uses the proven cold evaporation principle.
Here’s how the Venta principle works
A fan directs the ambient air into the water-filled humidifier, where it flows through specially arrayed disk stacks. Hygienically clean air evaporates from their surfaces into the room.
