What are the precautions for using a humidifier in winter?

The winter climate is dry, coupled with air conditioning and heating in the room, it is not possible to open the window frequently. Many people have symptoms such as throat discomfort, dry skin and poor breathing. At this time, many families use a humidifier to relieve the dry air in the room, and let the skin make up the water. However, you know, humidifiers can alleviate dryness, but misuse of humidifiers can affect health.

Clean indoors before use

The humidifier is used properly, which can better alleviate indoor drying and so on. Therefore, it is recommended that everyone use the humidifier scientifically. Before we use it, we must first clean the house. Thoroughly clean the room to remove dust from furniture, bedding, and the floor.

If there is too much dust in the room, once the humidifier is used, the humidity of the air in the room will increase, and the bacteria attached to the dust will rapidly multiply in a humid environment, increasing the number of germs in the room.

Indoor timed window ventilation

In addition, when using the humidifier, be sure to pay attention to the ventilation of the window to allow the indoor air to be renewed.

Adjust humidity according to room temperature

When using a humidifier, we should adjust the humidity according to the room temperature. For the human body, it is not the higher the air humidity, the better, the general air humidity is more than 50% or 60%, it will cause harm to the human body. Under normal circumstances, the ambient relative humidity should be controlled at 40%-50% at room temperature 25 °C; the ambient relative humidity should be controlled at 30%-40% at room temperature 18 °C.

If the humidity is too low, the effect of humidification will not be achieved; if the humidity is too high, the human respiratory system and mucous membrane will be uncomfortable. Therefore, when using the humidifier, if there is no automatic thermostat function, you can buy a hygrometer to better adjust the air humidity.

Do not use tap water in the humidifier

In addition, it is best to use pure water in the humidifier, do not add tap water to the humidifier. Tap water, which contains calcium and magnesium, can cause white powder to form, pollute the air in the room, and may also cause diseases such as asthma and bronchitis.

Use sterilization humidifier carefully

At present, people pay more attention to health problems, and the sterilization humidifiers on the market are more popular. This kind of humidifier with sterilization function is usually because it contains certain chemicals. In the process of removing bacteria from the air, these syrups are sprayed into the air through a humidifier, which is easy to cause harm to the human body. Therefore, users are advised to be cautious.

Therefore, unless it is a specific place such as a hospital, or a patient with a certain infectious disease at home, the general family does not have to deliberately use a sterilization humidifier.
