It is well known that the health of the respiratory system depends largely on the environment in which we operate. Including the one where we rest. Quality air, in terms of humidity and purity, guarantees us a high degree of immunity against diseases of the respiratory system.
Having a humidifier and air purifier should be a goal for any household. This appliance works wonders during periods when the use of heating or air cooling systems is required. Here we are talking about stoves or radiators used in winter, but also about air conditioners used in summer. They dry the air in the room and generate a predisposition to colds and flu by reducing the natural protection of the respiratory system.
Some technologies use water heating to boiling point to generate the steam needed to raise the air humidity index.
The advantages of this type of device are the fact that the high temperature reached by the water eliminates most of the germs from it, ensuring in parallel the purification of the air.
The disadvantages are related to the danger presented by the hot water that can cause injuries in case of accidents. A baby will not be allowed access to such a device.
Another shortcoming of this technology is when using essential oils together with a humidifier. There are opinions that high temperature alters the qualities of essential oils.
Also in terms of disadvantages it should be mentioned that this type of device will increase the room temperature by 1-2 degrees Celsius. Which is why it may be unsuitable for summer use.
Most of the devices offered on the Romanian market are ultrasonic humidifiers. They use ultrasound to spray water, and then use a fan to scatter the vapors thus obtained in the room.

Among the advantages of this technology are the low noise level and the fact that essential oils retain their natural qualities. Another advantage would be to eliminate the risk of potential burns, in case of contact with water or generated vapors.
The disadvantage of ultrasound, in contrast to humidifiers based on hot steam, is, according to some critics, the fact that if it is not washed often enough. Germs can develop in the water container which will then be spread in the air we breathe.
However, this situation can be easily solved by observing the minimum conditions of use and washing after every 3 uses. Another solution would be the use of essential oils, which also have the role of purifying the air and destroying germs, in addition to the standard role of aromatherapy.
