Humidifiers are used to increase the humidity—the amount of water vapor in the air—within a space. In order to achieve the best indoor air quality possible, it is necessary to keep the humidity in the air controlled. During the winter months, heated air is often uncomfortably dry. When your indoor air is too dry, it is detrimental to your body, both inside and out. Dry air feels colder and, thus, more uncomfortable, often drying out your skin and hair. Breathing dry air can also cause nosebleeds, a dry and scratchy throat, and respiratory issues. For allergy-sufferers, dry air can exacerbate symptoms.
Different humidifiers use different processes to add moisture to the air. Cool mist humidifiers are filled with water, which is absorbed through a large evaporative wick and evaporated into your environment. Warm mist humidifiers heat water to create warm water vapor that is distributed throughout your space. Ultrasonic humidifiers generate ultrasonic vibrations that send invisible moisture into your air. Some models also include ultraviolet lamps to help kill germs. It's best to first choose a properly sized humidifier for your application and then compare special features, such as water tank capacity, fan speeds, a built-in humidistat, among others.
