Why would someone need to buy a humidifier?

Answer 1

There are a few reasons why one would need to buy a humidifier. If they are located out in the woods where it is very dry, a humidifier will help reduce fires in homes. That reason is probably the best reason to get a humidifier.

Answer 2

One would want to buy a dehumidifier if one lived in a area which had a very damp climate. A dehimidifier takes the water out of the air indoors, and some people think that it will help them be less likely to suffer from colds and Allergies.

Answer 3

A research by ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers) shows that the ideal indoor humidity level is about 40%-60%.

Dry environment with humidity level below 40% will not only result in dry skin and hair, but also make viruses and bacteria more active, therefore increase the likelihood of being infected by colds and other respiratory illnesses.

So using humidifier will help you with allergies, wrinkles, dry skin, prevent flu and cough, good sleep etc. It will do good to your baby and your pet and a healthy life.

There are different types of humidifiers and they each have a different humidifier rating, as well as square footage usually covered. Cool mist/evaporative humidifiers are generally cheaper than warm mist and ultrasonic ones. Good brands such as Dyson, Keecoon[if you want large capacity], Panasonic, etc.
