Abstract
An improved floor mounted humidifier is disclosed. The humidifier draws dry air into and discharges humidified air from the humidifier. In order to facilitate the refilling of the humidifier with water, a wheel mounted water reservoir tank is provided. The water reservoir tank provides floor movement to a water source to enable the refilling of the water reservoir tank and for return to the floor mounted humidifier. The water reservoir tank also includes a handle for controlled movement of the water reservoir tank. The handle is capable of being extended during wheeled movement of the water reservoir tank and retracted when subsequently re-positioned relative to the humidifier. The water reservoir tank is incorporated into the floor mounted humidifier as an integrated component without detracting from the overall appearance of the humidifier.
