A humidifier is a machine for increasing the amount of moisture in the air.Evaporators use a fan to blow air through a wet wick, filter or belt. Raising the humidity by passing air through a wetted matrix is a simple and safe way to humidify – with the added benefits of very low running costs and evaporative cooling.
At the heart of the humidifier is the evaporative module. Water is supplied to the top of a fully bonded particle free matrix and flows down its corrugated surface. Dry air passes through this moist material picking up water vapour, raising the humidity as it does so. This process consumes very little energy, far less than steam humidifiers or even cold water atomisers.
