The climate is changing, the summer is getting hotter every year. Many people begin to think about maintaining moisture in the home air. The home air purifier and humidifier became very popular . The only problem is that it is difficult to choose the right design option, because each model has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Home humidifiers on the market differ in power, method and strength of evaporation, and in auxiliary functions. This is ionization, aromatization, air purification.
Humidifiers for the home are divided according to the principle of action. There are three main types: ultrasonic, steam and traditional.
A traditional moisturizer is used, as a rule, in everyday life. It has a fairly simple design (evaporation of moisture occurs independently). Only a fan is used, which drives the air flow through the filter.
Steam humidifiers are based on the principle of operation of an electric kettle. The water in them is heated portionwise to a boil, which helps intensive evaporation. They are necessarily equipped with a hydrostat (determines the air humidity), which turns off the device when it reaches a certain air humidity. With the help of such humidifiers, it is possible to raise the humidity to the level of steam (condensation forms, which subsequently drops out as dew). The performance of such a unit reaches 16 liters per day. Its power is up to 60W. The average cost of such models is $ 80.

Humidifiers for the home are ultrasonic. Such a device is considered more effective among other types of devices. Its principle of operation is based on creating a fog, followed by dropping water droplets out of it using ultrasonic vibrations that are generated by piezoelectric radiation. With the help of natural air current, the fog spreads throughout the room. By natural evaporation, the mist particles turn into steam (the humidity in the room rises significantly). Part of the fog settles on the hard surface of the room and dries. This can lead to stains on hard surfaces (water composition components remain), therefore it is recommended to use only
distilled water in the work
.Typically,
ultrasonic humidifiers for the home have a capacity of up to 12 liters per day. Power consumption up to 50W (in the presence of an element for heating water, it can increase up to 125W). At present, humidifiers for a home worth $ 20-300 are very popular.
The advantages of an ultrasonic humidifier include the automatic maintenance of high humidity in the room, virtually silent operation, safe operation, reasonable cost. There are not many drawbacks: the formation of white plaque when pouring ordinary water, the price of replaceable cartridges is high.
Perfectly saturate the air in an apartment with an ultrasonic humidifier for the home. Reviews about him in the network and in the press are positive.
