Can a humidifier use tap water?

Humidifiers can use treated water such as purified water, mineral water, distilled water, or cool boiled water, which contains fewer impurities and will not affect the humidifier. It is best not to add tap water directly to the humidifier, as tap water generally contains minerals and bacteria, which can easily precipitate and form scale, which can affect the life of the humidifier.

Tap water cannot be added directly to the humidifier. Because the trace elements contained in tap water, such as magnesium ions, calcium ions, etc., are easy to produce white powder, which not only pollutes the indoor air, but also may induce asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia and other diseases after these substances are sprayed out with the mist.

Liang Dong, chief physician of the respiratory department of Nanjing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, reminded that you can't blindly add drugs or other substances to the humidifier to simulate the fragrance or hospital atomization effect. The medical nebulizer uses sterile saline or special drugs, and the nebulizer directly blows the water out to diffuse the water into water mist and diffuses it into the air to achieve the humidification effect, but if the water source is polluted for various reasons, the threat of respiratory tract infection will be greater.

Industry insiders said that under the action of humidifiers, microorganisms floating in the air and scattered in dust and items will grow and multiply rapidly, and unclean humidifiers will also cause mold and other microorganisms to enter the air with moisture.

It is best not to, because adding tap water directly to the humidifier will produce limescale, and the impurities in it can easily breed bacteria. Moreover, it is sprayed with water mist, which also has an impact on indoor air. That said, the water in the humidifier must be clean and free of bacteria.

My Dyson's humidifier can be sterilized by ultraviolet light to ensure the purity of the water mist. It seems that only Dyson has such a patented technology on the market, and no one else has this function.

Yes, but it is better to precipitate tap water for 24 hours, the damage to the atomizer is small, and the scale produced is less, if you are in the north, it is recommended to use pure water, because the water quality in the north is harder.

Humidifiers should not use tap water. Tap water contains a variety of minerals that can cause damage to the humidifier's evaporator, and the water alkali contained in it can also affect its service life.

In addition, tap water contains a certain amount of chlorine atoms and microorganisms, which may be blown into the air by the water mist and cause pollution. The tap water in some communities has a high hardness, and the water mist sprayed by the humidifier will produce white powder due to the calcium and magnesium ions, which will not only pollute the indoor air, but also damage the paint on the surface of furniture and floors, affect the gloss, and cause permanent damage.

When using a humidifier, you must pay attention to safety and stay away from heat sources and household appliances to avoid accidents such as electric shock. Place it on a stabilizing plane when using the humidifier. The correct way to use it is to stop for 10-20 minutes every 2 hours, and when you feel that the indoor air is not fresh, you should open the window for ventilation in time.

No, the humidifier cannot use tap water.

Humidifiers atomize water through ultrasound and spray it into the air, so these atomized tiny water droplets enter the body with the body's breathing. Tap water contains mold, bacteria, and impurities, so tap water should not be used directly in humidifiers.

When using a humidifier, it is best to use purified water.

Reasons and solutions for humidifiers not to fog up

1. Please control the air humidity when using. Fog isn't always better. In winter, the humidity that the human body feels comfortable with is about 50%, so please humidify it appropriately.

2. Clean the humidifier regularly. Under normal circumstances, the water tank needs to be changed to prevent the growth of bacteria, and the humidifier should be cleaned and maintained for about 1 week.

3. Add water to the machine and turn on the electricity, put your hand on the air outlet to see if there is wind, if there is wind, just pour out the water in the machine and turn on the power supply.

Because the humidifier sprays water into the air through ultrasound atomization, so as to achieve the humidification effect, these atomized fine water droplets will enter the body with our breathing.

The tap water contains magnesium, calcium and other mineral ions, as well as bleach (with bactericidal effect), these ingredients are sprayed into the air with the water mist, polluting the indoor air, if inhaled into the lungs for a long time, it will definitely be harmful to health, and it is easy to cause allergies and various respiratory diseases.

Tap water is not recommended. Because tap water contains a variety of impurities, it is easy to cause humidifier nozzles to be blocked, it is recommended to use pure water, if it is an industrial plant workshop that needs to be humidified, it is recommended to be equipped with special pure water water equipment. The pure water equipment can replace the calcium and magnesium ions in the raw water, and become softened water with very low hardness after flowing out of the pure water equipment, which can effectively reduce the sediment, avoid the blockage of the nozzle, ensure the spray atomization effect, prolong the service life of the equipment, and reduce the later maintenance.

Humidifiers can be filled with tap water.

In terms of types, humidifiers can be divided into industrial, commercial and household.

A common one is an ultrasonic humidifier, which works by using ultrasonic waves to atomize water vapor and release it into the air, thereby maintaining air humidity. The magnesium, calcium, bleach and other substances contained in tap water are emitted into the air during the atomization process.

It is worth mentioning that the ** of household humidifiers ranges from 100 yuan to thousands of yuan. High-grade humidifiers have built-in water purifiers to filter impurities in the water.

At present, there is also a pure humidifier, which adopts the latest humidification technology, through molecular sieve evaporation technology, to remove calcium, magnesium ions and bleach in the water, and play a role in purifying the air and improving air purity. Ideal for the elderly and children.
