    Kiss, glad of your question!

    1. White vinegar can remove scale: add a small amount of white vinegar directly when adding water to the humidifier, so that the scale is not easy to adhere to the heating pipe, but directly sinks to the bottom of the water. Remember to rinse the humidifier before adding water each time, preferably several times to prevent residual white vinegar from contaminating the purified water in the humidifier.

    2. Small brush to remove scale: small brush to remove scale is very simple, as long as it is dipped in some special detergent and gently wiped, make sure that the scale is wiped clean and then rinse it with water several times. The base of the humidifier will be a little complicated to descale, so it is best to use a small brush dipped in soapy water and other detergents before cleaning.

    Some humidifiers are equipped with special detergents, which can be used with pure water of about 60 degrees to clean the bottom of the humidifier.

    3. Replace the accessories of the humidifier to descale: the humidifier can be replaced with a new "oscillating sheet" every year or so, which is not necessary to descale, and the electronic shopping mall generally sells the oscillating sheet, about 6-7 yuan a. The disassembly of the humidifier is very simple, remove a few screws, and then weld the two wires to the position of the original old wires with an electric iron.

    Note that when replacing the oscillating plate, it must be tightened to prevent water leakage.

    A few spoonfuls of vinegar can be put into water and boiled for an hour or two to remove limescale. If the main ingredient in the scale is calcium sulfate, the soda ash solution can be poured into a humidifier and boiled to remove the scale.

    If you don't have time to go to the supermarket, you can learn from the chemical principle of "acid-base neutralization", regularly add a little white vinegar to dissolve the water alkali, and pour a little white vinegar into the humidifier in winter not only to remove the water alkali, but also to prevent colds, but if in a public place such as the office, the taste of vinegar is not a little **? Therefore,,, if you are in a public place, you can add some pure lemon juice to the water tank when using the humidifier, which not only dissolves the water alkali, but also adds an elegant lemon aroma to the room.

    Note: If you don't have disposable gloves, after squeezing lemonade with your hands, even if you have washed your hands with water, be sure not to bask in the sun, because then the melanin in the lemon peel will settle in the ** of your hands.

    Formation of limescale.

    Scale is the process of use, calcium and other cations in the water are combined with anions such as bicarbonate, with the change of water temperature, pressure and flow rate, it will produce precipitation, form a water-insoluble substance, adhere to the heating surface or the surface of the contact object, usually attached to the inner side of the transportation pipeline, forming a dense scale.

    The hazards of limescale.

    First of all, because the thermal conductivity of scale is much lower than that of metal, generally W mk, the thermal conductivity of metal is 6-1000 times that of scale, for example: the thermal conductivity of copper is 402 W mk. In all kinds of hot water circulation system boilers, scale adheres to the inside of the pipes, which will greatly reduce the heat conduction efficiency.

    Practice has proved that for every 1mm of fouling on the boiler tube wall, the energy consumption will increase by 9%; Generally, at high temperatures, the pipe wall can be scaled up to 3 5mm a year, so it is necessary to increase the electricity or fuel by more than 25%.

    Secondly, in the water transmission pipeline, with the generation of scale, the inner diameter of the pipeline gradually becomes smaller, so that the conveying area becomes smaller, when the scale deposit reaches a certain amount, it can even block the pipe, shower, etc., so that the equipment can not work normally.

    How to remove limescale.

    According to the principle and composition of scale, there are generally the following ways to remove scale:

    1.The anion reaction with the scale is carried out by adding acid;

    2.Softening by resin removal of calcium ions in water;

    3.Removal of sediment after heating;

    Towel descaling tips:

    What are the advantages of using soft water for family life?

    1.Prevent fouling of water-using equipment.

    Soft water can make water heaters, sprinkler appliances, ironing appliances, radiators and other water equipment free of scaling, avoid the trouble of blockage, and greatly extend the service life of water equipment; It improves thermal efficiency and can save on energy bills20.

    2.Laundry is better.

    Washing clothes with soft water, in addition to playing a basic cleaning role, can also make clothes soft, not yellowing, not hard, and can save 30% of detergent.

    3.It is used for bathing and grooming, and the effect is better.

    Soft water bathing and combing can make the skin delicate and tender, and make the hair soft and smooth, which is not only conducive to protection, but also beneficial to beauty salons.

    4.Eliminate the residue of water stains on the surface of the water equipment.

    Soft water rinsing keeps your home hygiene looking as good as new.

    How to clean the humidifier.

    1. When using a humidifier for humidification, it is best to use purified water or boiled cold boiled water for the water added to the humidifier. When the water quality of tap water is hard, during the humidification process, the tap water will form a layer of scale on the atomization sheet of the humidifier, which is easy to affect the humidification effect of the humidifier.

    2. When using the humidifier, it is also necessary to regularly replace the water in the humidifier tank, the water in the humidifier is placed for too long, and the water quality is prone to certain changes, resulting in the breeding of bacteria, so the water in the humidifier should not be placed for too long.

    3. After the humidifier is not in use, it needs to be wiped dry and placed in a cool and ventilated place to dry.

    4. When using the humidifier, it is necessary to check whether the float valve of the humidifier is scaled, and when the scale component of the float valve is aggravated, it will affect the normal operation of the humidifier.

    5. The humidifier needs to be cleaned regularly during use to ensure the use effect of the humidifier and prolong its service life.

    6. When adding water, you should pay attention to the use of clean water with a temperature lower than 40 degrees, the impurities in the water are not easy to be too much, and the temperature is too high to damage the body, so that the machine can not operate normally.

    7. When humidifying, it is best to put the object on a solid object, and do not put the humidifier on a hollow object, so as not to produce co-frequency resonance, which makes the noise too loud.
