With the dry climate, warm mist humidifier made in china has become an essential small appliance for many families.However, there are also some claims about humidifiers that leave many people torn between using them and not using them. Rumors about humidifiers are endless, such as humidifiers can lead to respiratory diseases, etc., these are true? Let’s take a look!
Is dry air really bad?
Health experts tell us that lower air humidity dries out our skin, mouth, mucous membranes of the respiratory tract, and eyes with rapid evaporation of moisture. In several office surveys, it was found that symptoms such as dry eyes, dry mouth, sore throat, and itchy skin occur with the highest frequency. Lower air humidity is the cause of these symptoms, and such a conclusion is indeed in line with the intuition of our ordinary people.
However, scientific research does not seem to support this conclusion.
The truth is that the discomfort associated with dryness is not a direct result of dryness, but rather a “by-product” of dry air. In other words, there is a correlation between discomfort and low humidity, but it is not causal.
Misconceptions to be aware of when using the warm mist humidifier made in china!
- Can I blow on my face in passing with a warm mist humidifier made in china?
Humidifier is best not too close to the human body, especially not to the face, at least from the human body about 2 meters. Humidifier work, the presence of impurities in the water, bacteria, metal ions and other impurities, germs will also be with the water mist together with the air. If the humidifier is facing the face, or too close to the human head, the diameter of less than 2.5 microns of fine particles will pass through the layers of the human respiratory system barrier, directly to the inside of the alveoli, thus triggering respiratory diseases.
- Is it better to leave warm mist humidifier made in china on for longer?
The indoor humidity level favorable to human body should be between 20% and 50%, if the humidity is more than 50%, on the contrary, the respiratory mucous membranes produce some harm, and even trigger pneumonia. Therefore, the humidifier should not always on, it is recommended that with the use of hygrometers, when the indoor humidity exceeds 50%, it is necessary to turn off the humidifier in a timely manner. If the indoor “foggy” a piece of time, it may be the low temperature of the house, resulting in the liquefaction of water vapor, this time you need to open the window to ventilate these “fog” out.
- Warm mist humidifier made in china anyone?
Some arthritis, diabetes patients in the higher humidity will also aggravate the disease. Therefore, patients with arthritis should not use humidifiers.
- Can you use tap water in a warm mist humidifier made in china?
Chlorine ions in tap water and other particles with the water mist volatilized into the air, was inhaled by the body to produce harm. In addition, tap water in the calcium and magnesium ions in the humidifier deposited in the white powder is easy to block the jet microporous, reducing humidification efficiency. It is recommended to boil the water, let it cool and then use it, so that not only can kill the bacteria in the water, but also evaporate the chlorine, you can also use pure water.
- Add volatile products such as essential oils or floral waters
Add volatile products such as essential oils or floral water inside the warm mist humidifier made in china, these products often contain chemical ingredients that enter the human respiratory tract and cause irritation and make the body feel uncomfortable. Especially some people with allergies should pay attention.
- Never washed
Pure type humidifiers need to regularly replace the filter and evaporator; ultrasonic humidifiers should pay attention to the cleanliness of the water tank, it is recommended to clean once a week. If not regularly cleaned, scale is easy to clog the humidifier, but also make the humidifier in the mold and other microorganisms with the aerosol into the air. Cleaning, as little as possible to use bactericidal disinfectants, available running water repeatedly rinse, and then use a soft cloth to wipe off the scale around the water tank.
- Adding a disinfectant
Adding a disinfectant to a humidifier actually atomizes the ingredients of the disinfectant, which are inhaled and cause irritation to the human lungs and bronchial epithelial cells. If the concentration is too high, it may cause damage to the upper respiratory tract.
How to use the warm mist humidifier made in china correctly
- If you don’t feel physically uncomfortable in your life, there is no need to use a humidifier even if the humidity in the room is low.
- Don’t turn the air conditioning and heating up too much in the winter, and keep the indoor temperatures as low as you can tolerate. The immediate benefit of lower temperatures is an increase in air humidity.
- If you notice condensation in the corners of your home, window frames, or kitchen tiles, you should either limit the use of your humidifier or put it in a new location and continue to watch. This is because whenever a small environment with excess humidity becomes a source of pollution, then it can affect the air quality of the entire house.
- If you are going to use a warm mist humidifier made in china, an evaporative humidifier is recommended as an alternative to an ultrasonic humidifier that creates aerosol pollution. The advantage of evaporative humidifiers is that the water molecules that evaporate out will not take away the dirt on the filter and will not form aerosols in the air. Even if bacteria grows on the filter, it won’t spread into the air. However, evaporative humidifiers also have a disadvantage, that is, the humidification efficiency is slightly lower than ultrasonic humidifiers.
- These factors mentioned above have completely different weights for different people. For example, the most important thing for an asthmatic is to reduce the incidence of asthma. So, the most appropriate air humidity for him might be 80%. And for those who are allergic to mites, keeping the air humidity below 30% would be best.
