A humidifier is a machine that adds moisture to the air. These are available in a variety of shapes, designs and sizes to increase customer comfort including warm mist, cool mist

The benefits of using a humidifier can be divided into three categories:

A. Maintaining a good health – As and when the indoor air quality is improved, the direct benefits are those to the health of the individuals in the area. The body’s immune system becomes geared up with the elimination of dry air.

a. Dry air causes nose bleeds, colds and respiratory infections. The use of humidifiers increases the relative humidity and helps fight against viruses, germs and respiratory irritants.
b. As most of the humidifiers come with an in built filter, the air is purified and unwanted particles like dust, dirt and bacteria are removed. Overall the indoor environment becomes suited even to those suffering from asthma and other respiratory problems.
c. Humidifiers help maintain a relative humidity in the range of 40% to 50% and this in turn ensures that the immune system operates at its best. This helps us fight against respiratory infections and other problems caused by bacteria and viruses.

B. Proper home environment – The correct level of humidity helps to maintain a healthy and comfortable environment while protecting the furniture as well.

a. The main aim is to provide utmost comfort and this is possible only when the humidity is at the desired level. In the cold months the use of heating system lowers the humidity a great deal and humidifiers have to used to bring it back up.
b. Dry air harms furniture, curtains, upholstery and almost everything else in your house. Paintings can crack, joints of furniture can become loose and wooden instruments like floors, pianos and woodwinds can get damaged. The correct humidity takes care of all this and more.
c. Static electricity is very harmful to electronic equipment like computers and is a direct result of dry air. Humidifiers help control it and eliminate the chances of shocks and zapping yourself.

C. Complete happiness – The use of humidifiers goes a long way in increasing the overall well being of customers.

a. Dehydration of the skin saps the body of vigor and elasticity. The use of humidifiers directly helps maintain a young and soft skin that makes you feel and look much younger.
b. Heating bills are lowered as the humidifier works well with the heating systems and helps turn the thermostat down. As the body retains more moisture it is able to trap heat better and hence the temperature on the heating system can be increased to get the same heating. Some studies have shown that even increasing the thermostat setting by three degrees results in a saving of about 5% on the electricity bills.
