Abstract
A fan coil apparatus includes a humidification unit having a water mist production member, and an air flow path. The water mist production member includes a chamber. In operation, a water mist produced by the water mist production member is present in the chamber. The air flow path extends from an air inlet to an air outlet and passes through the chamber. Air passing through the air flow path draws water mist from the chamber and out the air outlet. The air inlet includes a scoop positioned in a first portion of an air flow path of the fan coil apparatus.
Claims10
A fan coil apparatus comprising a humidification unit, the humidification unit comprising:
- (a) a water mist production member including a chamber wherein, in operation, a water mist produced by the water mist production member is present in the chamber;
- (b) an air flow path extending from an air inlet to an air outlet and passing through the chamber, wherein air passing through the air flow path draws water mist from the chamber and out the air outlet;
- (c) a water reservoir upstream of the chamber;
- and,
- (d) a water filter upstream of the water reservoir.
A fan coil apparatus comprising a humidification unit, the humidification unit comprising:
- (a) a water mist production member including a chamber wherein, in operation, a water mist produced by the water mist production member is present in the chamber;
- (b) an air flow path extending from an air inlet to an air outlet and passing through the chamber, wherein air passing through the air flow path draws water mist from the chamber and out the air outlet;
- and,
- (c) a water reservoir upstream of the chamber,
- wherein the water reservoir is selectively connectable in flow communication with a supply of water by an openable valve, wherein the valve is openable when a water level in the water reservoir is low.
A fan coil apparatus comprising a humidification unit, the humidification unit comprising:
- (a) a water mist production member including a chamber wherein, in operation, a water mist produced by the water mist production member is present in the chamber;
- (b) an air flow path extending from an air inlet to an air outlet and passing through the chamber, wherein air passing through the air flow path draws water mist from the chamber and out the air outlet;
- and,
- (c) a water reservoir upstream of the chamber,
- wherein the air outlet comprises a plurality of outlets provided in a water mist distribution tube.
