Pay attention to the following points when using a humidifier:
1. Patients with arthritis and diabetes should use air humidifiers with caution. Humid air will aggravate the conditions of arthritis and diabetes, so it is generally not recommended for such patients. If such patients really need to use a humidifier to reduce the occurrence of some respiratory complications, they should discuss with a specialist to determine the appropriate humidity to stabilize the condition of the primary disease.
2. Clean the humidifier regularly according to the instruction manual. If the humidifier itself is unhygienic, germs will float in the air with water vapor, which will also cause harm to human health.
3.Do not directly add tap water to the humidifier. Because tap water contains a variety of minerals, it will cause damage to the evaporator of the humidifier, and the water alkali contained in it will also affect its service life. Chlorine atoms and microorganisms in tap water may be blown into the air with water mist to cause pollution. If the hardness of tap water is high, the water mist from the humidifier contains calcium and magnesium ions, which will produce white powder and pollute the indoor air.
4. Adjust the humidity of the humidifier according to the weather conditions and indoor and outdoor temperature at any time. It is understood that many patients only adjust the humidity when they first buy an air humidifier, and seldom adjust it after use. This will greatly reduce the effect of the humidifier. Once the weather rains and the indoor and outdoor humidity rises, the humidity of the humidifier will not be lowered, which will increase the humidity virtually, which will make people feel sticky and uncomfortable. It is not conducive to human health; if the weather becomes too dry and the humidity of the humidifier is not increased, the effect of the humidifier will be weakened.
