The benefits of using a humidifier:
1. Moisturize the air and purify the environment With the improvement of people's living standards, air conditioners are widely used, resulting in the breeding of air conditioning diseases such as tight skin, dry mouth, cough and cold. Some humidifiers can also release a large amount of negative oxygen ions during the atomization process, which can effectively increase the indoor humidity, moisturize the dry air, and combine with the floating smoke and dust in the air to make it precipitate, which can effectively remove the smell of paint, musty, and Smoke and smell make the air fresher and protect the health of you and your family.

Disadvantages of using humidifier:
1. If the air humidifier is used for a long time, the sticky substance attached to the inner wall will breed bacteria. If it is not removed in time, the bacteria in the humidified air will be seriously exceeded.
2. If you use the humidifier for a long time, it will aggravate rheumatism and arthritis, so don't use the humidifier 24 hours a day, it's best to use it intermittently.
3. The atomization of the humidifier is simply to chop up the water droplets, which is not suitable for breathing directly into our respiratory tract.
The water in the humidifier is best distilled water or cool boiled water, because after treatment, the water contains less impurities, and people will not cause respiratory discomfort due to inhalation of impurities.
1. Purified water: Yes, it is recommended to add some vinegar to sterilize it.
2. Distilled water: Yes, let it cool after boiling, and filter some impurities and alkalis in it with filter paper.
3. Mineral water: generally contains a lot of minerals, which will damage the humidifier and pollute the air, and breed bacteria.
4. Tap water: Tap water cannot be directly added to the humidifier. Because the tap water contains a variety of minerals, it will damage the evaporator of the humidifier, and the water alkali it contains will also affect its service life. Chlorine atoms and microorganisms in tap water may be blown into the air with water mist and cause pollution. If the tap water has high hardness, the water mist sprayed by the humidifier contains calcium and magnesium ions, which will produce white powder and pollute the indoor air.
You cannot use tap water with a mist humidifier!
The mist humidifier uses ultrasonic high-frequency vibration to break water into fine particles and spray it into the air. It directly produces water mist, which requires high water quality. Common pollutants in tap water generally have a diameter between 0.5 and 5 μm. The diameter of the water droplets output by an ultrasonic humidifier (1 to 5 μm) is relatively large, and it is easy to carry pollutants with a smaller diameter into the air.
1. Tap water contains many impurities such as metal ions and silicon. Tap water and these impurities will be broken into mist droplets by the humidifier and inhaled into the respiratory tract by the human body, causing tracheal contraction, coughing, chest tightness and other symptoms. If it is an asthma patient, it is easy to cause asthma; if it is a skin allergy patient, it is easy to aggravate allergic symptoms;
2. Various pathogens such as bacteria in tap water will enter the air with the water mist, affecting air quality and endangering human health;
3. The quality of tap water is hard, and white powdery impurities will be produced during use, which is commonly known as white powder, which affects the quality of humidification, affects the operation of the machine, and shortens the service life of the humidifier;
