Humidifiers
BREATHE EASY WITH GOOD INDOOR AIR
A humidity range of 40-60% is recommended for an optimal room climate as excessively dry air can be harmful to health long term. The heat gets turned up and the windows stay closed to create those cozy moments, especially on cold winter days. This often causes low humidity indoors – although dry indoor air is also common on hot summer days.
Air humidifiers help you to achieve recommended relative humidity of 40-60% for good indoor air. Not only does this improve the indoor climate, but humidity levels of 40-60% have also been shown to reduce viral activity and minimize the risk of infection.*
SHOULD ROOM SIZE BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN BUYING A HUMIDIFIER?
When buying a humidifying device, you will need to check the square footage, remembering that the capacity calculated is for a room with closed doors and standard 8-foot ceilings. If the doors to the room are open, add the areas of the adjacent rooms to your original room size. We recommend that you add another ⅓ to the total room area to ensure the device achieves the desired results even at a low or medium setting. This also prevents the device from operating at its limit and keeps the noise level low.
CALCULATING ROOM SIZE
Example: (room size: 430 ft²): If the doors are open and the room is adjacent to a 160 ft² hallway, stairway, or other room, add the two space sizes together (in this example 590 ft²). To prevent the device from operating at its limit, add another ⅓ of the total coverage area. Therefore, the device should be designed for an area of approx. 785 ft².
