• (a) a first rotational position in which the handle arc structures are engaged with the tank arc structures such that the tank lower structure is supported by the main structure;
• and
• (b) a second rotational position in which the handle arc structures are disengaged from the tank arc structures such that the tank lower structure is free from the main structure.

A method of removing a tank from a steam humidifier, the method comprising:

• (i) rotating a handle from a first position to a second position, where
• (a) in the first position, a support feature on the tank is engaged with a support feature on the handle such that the tank is attached to the steam humidifier;
• and
• (b) in the second position, the support feature on the tank is disengaged from the support feature on the handle such that the tank is unattached from the humidifier;
