!±8± How to Choose an Ultrasonic Humidifier?

If you have ever experienced the problem of dry skin and chapped lips then you understand the impact that low humidity can have on the body. But did you know that low humidity can also cause furnishings to dry out causing warping, cracking and splitting. You might even find your wallpaper peeling off the wall.

A humidifier is essentially a device that you can use in your home to fight all these problems. It is also beneficial for asthma sufferers, those who suffer from sinus headaches and anyone experiencing air borne allergies. So in all, we can probably agree that a humidifier is a great addition in the home.

Ultrasonic humidifiers are just one of the many different types of humidifiers available but are considered to be one of the best as they have many advantages over other forms of humidifiers. Some of these advantages are as follows:

Ultrasonic humidifiers are generally whisper quiet making them ideal for bedrooms. They can produce a warm or cool fog making them safe to use especially when compared to steam humidifiers which produce steam. These types of humidifiers use little energy which reduces energy costs.
When deciding on which is the best ultrasonic humidifier consider the following:

Choose a humidifier that has a form of anti-bacterial system or device. Humidifiers have a tendency to create mold and bacteria as water is stored in them. Ultrasonic humidifiers can spread white dust around your room so look for one that has a demineralization cartridge. This will prevent the white dust from forming and also prevent lime calcification. Choose a unit that automatically recognizes the humidity in the room and turns on and off automatically in response to your settings. Look for a humidifier that has virtually no sound. This will make it easier to sleep at night if you use the humidifier in a bedroom. Check out the amount of room that the humidifier covers. There's no point buying a humidifier that only covers a 400 sq ft area if your room is 600 sq ft. Try to buy a humidifier whose coverage is slightly more than the room you will be using it in. Some humidifiers take a lot of effort to maintain with regular changing of wicks and pads. Look for one that emphasizes low maintenance.
