An Ultrasonic humidifier is a device that adds moisture to the air with a metal diaphragm vibrating at ultrasonic frequency. It basically consists of a piezo electric transducer, metal diaphragm, ultrasonic sensors and a fan. Piezoelectric transducer converts electricity into ultrasonic oscillations of metal diaphragm placed in water. These vibrations release tiny vapor mists which are about one micron in diameter. These escape into air thus increasing the humidity. Although initial investment of ultrasonic humidifiers is a little high compared to other humidifiers, in the long run these are by far cost effective and safe. Almost all of the modern ultrasonic humidifiers have additional features which make them very comfortable and easy to use.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF AN ULTRASONIC HUMIDIFIER
Ultrasonic humidifiers, also called Sonic Humidifier, are multifunctional. They can be used for producing warm mist as well as cool mist. With digital display and adjustment you can fine control the mist released. You can use them throughout the year by setting your preference in different seasons. They can also help relieve the dehydrating symptoms brought on by colds and the flu, helping nasal passages breathe easily again and easing the irritation of coughs and sore throats. It offers a wonderful alternative therapy for children, those who prefer not to take over-the-counter medications, and those who can’t take decongestants due to pregnancy or incompatibility with other medications. Proper humidity in air prevents degradation of your immune system thereby preventing many diseases. Other common problems like dry and itchy skin, dust, pollutants, allergies, and headache caused by dry air can all be prevented using ultrasonic humidifiers.
Ultrasonic humidifiers are very quiet as they operate at frequency range beyond the limits of human ears. So you can sleep very well without the noise. They are significantly compact in size but they moisturize a very large area compared to other humidifiers. You do not have to wait for mist to form as it almost instantaneously humidifies air. There is no boiling water, wick or filter involved which cuts down maintenance cost. Ideally distilled water must be used but in practice it’s enough if you change water regularly. Even if you use hard water many modern devices are equipped with Silver nano and ion exchange technologies which prevent growth of bacteria, microbes and molds as well as remove mineral deposits of calcium and magnesium.
They do not allow microbes or minerals into air making them the safest among all other types of humidifiers. Some machines have dual nozzle which ensures the spread of moisture even if you keep it in the centre of your room. You can set the humidistat to your required moisture levels and the device ensures it is maintained. You can even set the time period for which you want the humidifier to be on. If you forget to refill water, it will remind you with LOW WATER indicator. It saves up to 93% of energy compared to other humidifiers.
We can certainly say that ultrasonic humidifiers are a very good investment as it saves you from so many health risks and conserves energy with very little maintenance, check our category about this product clicking here!
