HOW YOUR WARM MIST HUMIDIFIER
WORKS
Your Bionaire ® Warm Mist Humidifier is designed
to allow the proper amount of water to flow out
of the tank and into the Heating Chamber where
the Electronic Thermal Control Heating Element
warms the water. Air is drawn in through the grill
openings located in the back of the unit and
mixed with steam in the misting chamber. The
warm mist is then dispersed out of the top of the
misting chamber through the outlet grill and into
the room.
I
NOTE: A humidity level below 20% can be
unhealthy and uncomfortable. The recommended
humidity level is between 40%-50%.
