A room humidifier brings some advantages. Headaches are relieved and the rooms are cooled. This is very useful and pleasant, especially in the summer or on hot days.
Both our checklist and the product recommendations below will help you find the right humidifier.
- There are a total of three types of different room humidifiers that have different advantages and disadvantages.
- Evaporators are attached directly to the radiator.
- They use a large surface area for natural evaporation of water, thus cooling the room temperature.
- Therefore, they do not require their own energy supply.
- In addition, they are easy to clean.
- Due to their rather low output, there is no possibility of over-humidification of the room air.
- These devices work with ultrasound. This causes the water inside the device to vibrate at a high frequency . This creates a very fine mist of tiny water droplets.
- This mist is also capable of lowering the room temperature.
- If you use water containing lime, lime may be deposited in the vicinity of the device.
- The cleaning of these devices is relatively costly and you may end up spreading the germs from the water in the air of the room.
- Evaporators are in principle almost germ-free.
- In them, the water is heated so that it evaporates and is released into the room air.
- Since the water is heated here, the evaporator has no cooling effect on the room air.
- In addition, it has a higher energy demand than the other devices.
- Due to its efficient way of making the water evaporate, it can cause over-humidification of the room air. However, a timer function or a built-in hygrometer that measures and regulates humidity can prevent this effect.
- With the vaporizer it is possible to diffuse essential oils in the room.
- A timer and/or hygrometer can be very useful so that the equipment shuts itself off before the room becomes overly humidified.
- At best, the humidification output of the unit should be matched to the size of the room.
- It is best if the devices are easy to clean, so that this is done regularly.
