Abstract

The present invention relates to a humidification apparatus having a compartment that receives a removable humidification chamber. The apparatus has an actuator that can be operated by a user to move the humidification chamber from an operating position to a releasing position. In the operating position the humidification chamber is received by the humidification compartment and forms a portion of the flow path through the humidification apparatus. In the releasing position the humidification chamber is displaced outwardly from the operating position so that a user can more easily remove the humidification chamber from the apparatus.
