How Humidifiers Work:

Humidifiers add moisture to the air to relieve dryness. There are several types, but most work similarly:

1.⁠ ⁠Water is poured into the tank.
2.⁠ ⁠A wick or filter absorbs the water.
3.⁠ ⁠A fan blows air through the wet filter, creating a mist.
4.⁠ ⁠The mist is released into the air, increasing humidity.
