How does the humidifier

The water in the humidifier is playing a major role. After the heat treatment, it becomes steam. The moisture spreads throughout the room and humidifies the air.

To know what kind of water to pour into the humidifier for air and where it poured, it is necessary to understand the principle of work and the components of the device.

The humidifier consists of elements:

  • durable plastic housing;
  • a liquid reservoir;
  • filter;
  • Device for heating water;
  • fan;
  • vaporization chamber;
  • Ultraviolet membrane;
  • atomizer air flow changing.
Scheme of the humidifier

The humidifier works like this:

  1. Water is fed into the compartment and the filter is cleaned silver ions. Eliminates bacteria and other microorganisms.
  2. The fluid is heated with warm air to the desired temperature.
  3. The water is changed into steam and by the fan is supplied to fresh air.
  4. The liquid gradually vaporizes. Moisture-laden gas flows to the nozzle and into the room air.
  5. The air is cleaned and an ultraviolet lamp kills bacteria.

Selection of water depending on the device type

What water pouring depends on the type humidifier.

cool style

In cold moistening device - distilled or demineralized water. Violation of this basic rule will lead to damage due to clogging. If you can not buy quality filtered water, set in the humidifier filter.

ultrasonic humidifier

Not distilled or demineralized water is unsuitable for these models. If correctly pick water - plaque settles on the surface of the furniture, and fine particles will inhale person accumulating in the lungs salt. This type is considered to be the most popular because of the quality of air cleaning and durability.

Steam

For steam humidifier can be used cold boiled water. But this device requires 7-15 liters. Humidity in the room may exceed the norm. It is necessary to control the amount of water, temperature and steam power.

spray

The spray humidifier may use ordinary water from the tap. The fluid is not exposed to temperature changes. Such device differs low price, but it accumulates salts and other minerals. Regular cleaning is required.

The consequences of inappropriate use of water

Water that is not suitable for the humidifier may lead to such consequences:

  • In parts that are in contact with water, are deposited salt. Parts covered with white bloom. Deposits harden and grow.
  • Calcification due to accumulation of salts of magnesium and calcium. Vapors are not safe for health.
  • Substances from the liquid are deposited on surfaces and in the human lung.
  • Fails ultrasonic membrane. She can not cope with a large accumulation of elements in the water.
  • Poor water in the humidifier leads to permanent damage and harm to human body. Especially if a humectant is used often.

Distilled water and its cooking at home

Distillation - purification of water from impurities. They are organic and inorganic. Organic include bacteria and viruses, and to inorganic - salt and minerals. To distilled water has been quality, adhere to the technology:

  • Prepare plain water;
  • make it with distilled;
  • Keep right.

To prepare distilled water:

  1. Fill an enamel pan with water.
  2. Put it in the grate and the glass plate.
  3. Cover, turn down the convex part.

After boiling will evaporate. To expedite the process, place the cover of ice cubes. The water will drain and fill a glass container.

Distilled water can be obtained by collecting rainwater:

  1. Place a receptacle under the rain.
  2. Wait until the typed right amount of liquid.

The collected water is better stored frozen.

From the indoor air quality of our health depends. The humidifier has a positive effect on health. The water you use will determine the period of service of a cleaner. Quality water easily manufactured at home. If done correctly, the unit will support the climate for years to come.
