Types of Humidifiers

During periods of heat and high temperatures, a lack of moisture in the air is especially felt. But even in winter, the air in city apartments and other enclosed spaces is very dry, and humidity rarely rises above 35%. This negatively affects the well-being and health of a person. This especially affects children. Doctors advise to moisten the air artificially in case of diseases of the respiratory system and during periods when the humidity becomes low. If there is dry air in the room, allergies, asthma, and other diseases associated with the breathing process may develop.
Previously, to saturate the air with moisture, they placed water cans throughout the room and hung wet towels, but this method is ineffective.
Nowadays, humidifiers have become very widely used. What are they like? Humidifiers come in 3 types: traditional, steam and ultrasonic.
Traditional devices humidify the air when water is passed through a system of filters that are blown by a fan. They are equipped with a filter cartridge. When the fan is operating, significant noise is generated, and therefore, in a quiet time of day, it is uncomfortable to use it. But it costs significantly less than ultrasound.
Steam humidifiers do not require filter replacement and can humidify a room with a large volume. But these devices become very hot during operation and have a large power consumption.
Ultrasonic humidifiers spray (break down) the water into microparticles and water enters the room in the form of steam. Many devices have a steam heating function. In such devices, as a rule, there is an electronic display where humidity and current settings are displayed. Inside the housing is a humidity sensor, from which information is displayed on the scoreboard, and an electronic control circuit. Such units can moisten large rooms in volume. Here, control of the water level in the tank and its timely filling is necessary.
All types of humidifiers have different types of design, so you can choose a device that will appeal to a particular customer.
