Air washing for the price of a simple ultrasonic humidifier

Which humidifier is the best?

Today there are several types of humidifiers on the market, which are fundamentally different in design and effect produced.

There are 4 types of them in total:

  • Air purifiers (cold)... The principle of operation is simple: air is drawn in, passed through a wet filter, and - clean and humid - is dispersed around the room with a fan. Such devices cost the least and, in principle, should not give any condensation, deposits on walls and furniture, and scale on the walls of the device itself. But humidity above 45% cannot be seen with such a humidifier. Although, whether more is needed is a moot point. Filters need to be changed regularly.
  • Steam humidifiers (hot)– these heat water and turn it into steam,which is released into free flight around the room. This steam sufficiently humidifies the air, but can condense and fall out as “dew” on your furniture and walls. On the other hand, in winter it can raise the temperature in the room by a couple of degrees. But on the third hand, a small child can get burned by hot steam. And with the fourth, steam disinfects the air in the room. But fifthly, such humidifiers are a little noisy and not that energy efficient... In general, there is something to think about when choosing. Steam humidifiers need to be cleaned regularly from inside to remove scale.
  • Ultrasonic humidifiers- these are more advanced gadgets compared tosteam, because, firstly, they create not steam, but a fine mist (and therefore condensation does not fall out anywhere), and secondly, this mist is not hot, and therefore safe - at least put such a humidifier in the nursery. In addition, it consumes less energy and is quieter than steam, and you can adjust the level of humidity. Often, ultrasonic humidifiers are equipped with a hygrostat, which controls the humidity level in the room and, when the required values ​​are reached, temporarily turns off the gadget. To then automatically turn it on again when the time comes. You can also use essential oils in an ultrasonic humidifier to scent your home – something that is strictly not recommended for steam humidifiers.
  • Air washers– the most expensive gadgets in this category, sohow they provide not only air humidification, but also its purification. The principle of operation is similar to a traditional cold purifier, only the air does not pass through a wet filter, but through a reservoir of water, where it is actually washed. Therefore, sinks retain dust, particles of odors and smoke, which settle on the blades rotating inside the device.

Why does white dust often appear on the surfaces in rooms where humidifiers are used?

This phenomenon can indeed be observed, butIt is not the humidifiers that are to blame for this, but the owners who fill them with not filtered water, but simply from the tap. All salts and impurities contained in such water settle in the form of plaque on the furniture. This problem is typical for ultrasonic humidifiers. To solve this, you should fill them only with filtered clean water, regularly rinse the tank and internal filters (if there are any) to prevent the formation of scale, which will then settle on your surfaces. Also, pay attention to humidifiers with special filters for water that soften it and neutralize salts that can precipitate around the room, such as COOPER&HUNTER CH-3035T Bali.

What is the energy consumption of humidifiers?

Don't be afraid that if you install a humidifier at home,which usually needs to work day and night, you will greatly increase your energy costs. Yes, hot steam generators, of course, eat up your kilowatts. But ultrasonic humidifiers usually have a power in the range of 25 - 30 W, and Baseus slim waist - even 5 W, which means that the energy consumption per month will be small.

How to drip essential oil into a moisturizer?

Usually in the description of those gadgets that are equipped witharomatization function, this is discussed separately. It also indicates where to drop the essential oil. Because you can't just add it to water, this can ruin the device. For example, in ELECTROLUX EHU-5015D it is clearly stated in the instructions that it can be used to scent a room, but the essential oil must be dripped onto a specially designed sponge. There is also a warning like this:

A cheap, unpretentious humidifier, if you are urgently concerned about microclimate problems (for example, if you are sick), but do not have free funds.

Ultrasonic humidifier with electronicmanagement by the price of the cake (but the health benefits from it will be incomparably greater). And as a cherry on it, you can attach a lamp or a mini-fan that comes with the humidifier itself (however, you can turn on only one at a time, since they are connected via a single USB port).

It is capable of turning water into steam (preferably into wine!) with a capacity of 35 ml/h and is ready to serve up to 10 m2 of space. If you turn on the humidifier in constant mode (and there is also a more economical one - variable), its full 380 ml tank will be enough for 6 hours of uninterrupted irrigation. Just keep in mind that there is no gyrostat or tamper in it, so the humidifier can turn off only in two cases: the water runs out or you physically turn it off.

You can add a few drops of essential oil for flavoring.

The gadget weighs just over 150 g, dimensions:17×12×12 cm. The only thing is that it can be powered via its own micro-USB cable, which must be connected either to a computer USB port or to a standard charger, which is not included in the humidifier package.
