What are the precautions for using a humidifier in winter?

OFweek smart home network news: dry winter weather, coupled with indoor air conditioning, heating, can not always open the window ventilation, many people have throat discomfort, dry skin, breathing is not smooth and so on. At this time, many families use humidifiers to relieve the dry air in the room and make the skin replenish water. However, do you know that humidifiers can alleviate dryness, but misuse of humidifiers can affect health.

Clean room before use

When the humidifier is used properly, it can better relieve indoor drying conditions. Therefore, it is recommended that everyone use the humidifier scientifically. Before we use it, we must first clean the house. Thoroughly clean the room and remove furniture, bedding, and dust from 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 the wet environment, increasing the number of germs in the room.

Indoor timing window ventilation

In addition, the use of humidifiers must pay attention to window ventilation, so that indoor air can be updated.

Adjust humidity according to room temperature

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

Humidity is too low to achieve the effect of humidification; excessive humidity can cause discomfort to the body's respiratory system and mucous membranes. So when using a humidifier, if you do not have automatic thermostatic function, you can buy a hygrometer yourself to better adjust the air humidity.

Do not use tap water humidifier

In addition, the use of humidifiers is best to use pure water, do not add tap water to the humidifier. Tap water, which contains calcium and magnesium, can cause white powder to be produced, contaminate the air in the room, and may cause asthma, bronchitis and other diseases.

Use sterilizing humidifier with caution

At present, people pay more attention to health problems, and there is a high popularity of sterilizing humidifiers on the market. This kind of humidifier with sterilization function is usually because it contains some chemical substances. In the process of removing bacteria in the air, these medicines are sprayed into the air through a humidifier, which can easily cause harm to the human body. Therefore, it is recommended that users start cautiously.

Therefore, unless a specific place such as a hospital or a patient in the home with some infectious diseases, the average family need not deliberately use a sterilizing humidifier.
