The entire gadget uses 275nm deep ultraviolet automatic sterilization, patented UVC strong sterilization, the sterilization rate is as high as 99.9%, effectively inhibiting the growth of bacteria in the water tank and rejecting secondary pollution.

In terms of heating, the patented diatomaceous earth thick film heating technology is equipped with a 360-degree vortex heating design, without fear of external temperature interference, ensuring uniform heating and rapid temperature rise in seconds.
