With the cold and dry winter air our bodies end up getting sick with lots of colds and allergies. This dry winter air can also harm paint and wood furniture. While we cannot control the weather outside we can use humidifiers to adjust the moisture indoors, which is also called humidity.

All humidifiers are designed to increase the humidity, in the air. Humidifiers also work to reduce the static electricity in the home, reducing the possibility of being “shocked” all winter long. You will want to set the humidifier 30 to 50 percent for the best comfort levels. That will make the room just perfect and not too moist and not too dry.

If you are wondering how cool air humidifiers work, water is absorbed into a pad or filter and a fan is used to aid in the evaporation process of the water. A very thin air is sprayed in the air, adding moisture in the air. The good news about cool air humidifiers are that their  technology has been improving over the last couple of years and humidifiers are now easier to maintain and do not spew out the white mineral dust which some people thought cause respiratory problems.

One of the negatives that a lot of people do not enjoy about cool air humidifiers are the noise they make. However with technology the cool air humidifiers on the market today are made so they are very quiet. When buying these cool air humidifiers be careful because a lot of manufacturers like to exaggerate the square footage that is usually covered by their humidifiers.
