Is an air humidifier useful?

Are air humidifiers useful? What is the function of air humidifiers? In fact, the purpose of air humidifiers is to increase the humidity in the room and maintain a healthy humidity. It can not only prevent the growth of bacteria, but also provide people with a good rest environment indoors. Let's take a look at the function of air humidifiers.

1. Dry, itchy and uncomfortable respiratory tract of the elderly and children

Dry air can easily cause respiratory diseases, especially in vulnerable groups such as the elderly and children. A dry environment can easily cause various respiratory infections such as asthma, emphysema, and bronchitis.

2. Dry weather in winter

The weather in the north is dry in winter, especially after the heating comes on. When you wake up in the morning, you often feel dry mouth, sore throat, peeling skin and other symptoms. These are all caused by dry air, which can also cause many harms.

3. Women’s skin is tight and cracked

Medical research shows that dryness can accelerate the loss of water in the body, causing skin fibers to lose their toughness and break, forming irreparable wrinkles and accelerating the aging of the body.

4. Rapid spread of influenza germs

Indoor dust and flying dust pollution are carriers for the survival and spread of influenza viruses. A study by Waseda University in Japan pointed out that dry indoor environments make it easier for germs to spread. If indoor humidity is controlled between 45% and 65% RH, the survival time of germs will be the shortest.

5. Furniture is aging rapidly

Studies have shown that in a dry environment, furniture, books or musical instruments will accelerate aging, deformation and even cracking. To preserve the above items, the indoor humidity needs to be maintained between 45%-65%RH, while the indoor humidity in winter is far below this standard.

From the above introduction, we can understand that air humidifiers can not only prevent diseases and provide people with a comfortable environment, but are also good for the skin, home furniture, etc. Therefore, it is very necessary to have an air humidifier in the home.
