Mythg 1: What kind of water is more suitable to add (tap water, cold boiled water, purified water, distilled water)?
The answer is pure water or cold boiled water.
The humidifier will not accumulate water when using tap water, but using pure water will cause water accumulation. Because the principle of atomization is that the vibration of piezoelectric ceramics turns water into particles, due to the electrode characteristics of piezoelectric ceramics, the vibration effect is related to the ion content in the water. Tap water contains calcium, magnesium and sodium ions, so the atomization of water is better and the vibration is better. High, no water accumulation. Pure water has no ions, and piezoelectric ceramics have poor effect on the vibration of water without ions to become particles, resulting in stagnant water.
Myth 2: Irregular cleaning and water changes for long-term use
The ultrasonic air humidifier should pay attention to the cleaning of the water tank, at least once a week. If it is not cleaned regularly, it is easy to cause the humidifier to block and breed bacteria. For repeated cleaning, it is necessary to use a cleaning solution specially designed for cleaning humidifiers, and rinse with clean water several times. If it is not cleaned for a long time, it will provide a convenient environment for the growth of bacteria. The bacteria enter the room with the sprayed aerosol, and are scattered on the dust or objects in the room. People with weak resistance can easily induce pneumonia or respiratory tract infection after inhalation. And change the water every day.
Myth 3: Using a humidifier all day and night
It is recommended to buy another hygrometer and put it in an accessible place, so that the humidity in the room can be observed in time; scientific research shows that the indoor humidity that is beneficial to the body is between 20% and 50%. If the humidifier is used continuously for a long time (all day), the indoor humidity may exceed 50% without opening the window for ventilation, which will lower the concentration of thyroid and adrenaline in the body, and there will be listlessness, A state of malaise. At the same time, the environmental humidity at this time is very suitable for the rapid growth and reproduction of mold and bacteria. Over time, it will cause respiratory allergies, infections and other diseases, and even cause pneumonia.
The correct way is: stop the humidifier for a short time every 2-3 hours, so that the indoor humidity does not exceed 50%. If the humidity is too high, you can open the window to let the indoor air circulate, and do not leave the humidifier on for a long time.
Myth 4: Blow in the face
Some people use the humidifier as a hydrating and moisturizing beauty instrument, and place the humidifier close to the face. This is wrong. If the humidifier is too close to the person or the humidifier is facing the face, the diameter is less than 2.5 microns. Particulate matter will pass through the layers of barriers in the human respiratory system, thereby causing respiratory diseases. When the humidifier is working, impurities, bacteria, metal ions and other impurities and germs in the water will also drift into the air along with the water mist. Think about if you add tap water and leave it uncleaned for a long time, the tank will become infected with breeding bacteria. Something terrible was sprayed on the face every moment.
Therefore, when using the humidifier, it is best not to be too close to people, let alone blow it directly on the face. This will not only fail to achieve moisturizing and beauty effects, but may also lead to the possibility of illness. The humidifier should be at least 2 meters away from the human body.
