Carepod Launches Cube Plus in USA, Introducing the Market’s First Humidifier with One-Touch Heat Sanitization

Carepod, a leading humidifier brand known for its innovation, is launching a brand-new model with a built-in sanitization feature for cleaner air and peace of mind.

Carepod, a global leader in health-focused indoor humidification technology, is proud to announce the launch of its premium Cube Plus model in the United States. 

Designed with health and safety in mind, Cube Plus is the brand’s newest premium stainless steel humidifier product. The model provides an effective solution for combating dry air indoors, while introducing an industry-first: a built-in heat sanitization system. This latest innovation allows the user to initiate a sanitizing cycle with a single touch, killing up to 99.99% of certain harmful bacteria within the water tank, ensuring fresher, cleaner air and greater peace of mind. 

Mold and bacteria growth are common concerns for humidifier users, as standing water can promote the growth of harmful microorganisms. Many traditional humidifiers also have hard-to-reach areas with small nooks, corners or non-detachable parts where these contaminants are difficult to remove. Frequent cleaning is often required, but even then, it may not be enough to keep a typical humidifier completely clean. 

“Through my medical expertise, I’ve always known that dry indoor air can lead to infections, sore throats, dehydrated skin and other ailments. I turned to existing humidifiers to help my own family fight dry air in our home. However, after weeks of use, each one would become packed with grime and dangerous bacteria inside — and yet, they were impossible to clean,” said Dr. Hyung Joo Kim, inventor and founder of Carepod.

Carepod’s team of Korea-based engineers spent years developing a solution to not only improve air quality through hydration, but also to resolve the biggest pain point presented by existing humidifiers in the market.

The new Cube Plus maintains the same sleek, award-winning design as the original Cube model, but adds the powerful built-in sanitization system. This new feature applies a patented pasteurization process, heating the water to a safe temperature of 158° F (below boiling) during a 2-hour cycle to eliminate harmful bacteria. The device’s interior is lined with high-conductivity materials to effectively deliver sanitization to the water tank.

Like all Carepod products, Cube Plus is built with a 3-piece dishwasher-safe design that can be easily taken apart and washed. These parts, which include a stainless steel water tank and lid cover can even be safely sterilized in boiling water for 99.99% sterilizability, as demonstrated in research trials.

“I’m excited for the introduction of Cube Plus to audiences in the United States,” said Sean Kim, director of Carepod’s North America operations, “It represents a new level of Carepod’s innovation and sets another benchmark for even cleaner, hydrated and healthier air everyday at home.”

In recent years, both the EPA and CDC have recommended maintaining humidity levels between 30% and 50% to improve indoor air quality. As more people turn to humidifiers to address the health concerns of dry air, there is a growing demand for products that prioritize safety, convenience, and ease of cleaning. 

The launch of Cube Plus reinforces Carepod’s mission to create premium, user-friendly humidifiers for health-conscious individuals and families across the world. 

In addition to its unique sanitization capabilities, Cube Plus is the first in Carepod’s lineup to feature an auto-humidity feature. This new function continuously adapts to the room’s conditions to maintain the optimal humidity level, offering true “set it and forget it” convenience. Cube Plus also introduces an all-new night mode setting, which completely turns off the LED display lights for a darker, more restful environment.

Since introducing the world’s first patented stainless steel humidifier in 2015, Carepod has provided hundreds of thousands of units to families and individuals worldwide, helping them enjoy healthier, more hydrated air indoors.

Cube Plus, the latest addition to Carepod’s line of innovative humidifiers, is now available for purchase on Carepod’s website, with limited units available for delivery in the United States.
