ROOM HUMIDIFIERS FOR ENHANCED INDOOR COMFORT

If a whole-home humidification system isn’t in the cards, you don’t have to sacrifice the comfort and health benefits that come with humidifier use! Portable humidifiers, also called room humidifiers, deliver added moisture to specific areas of your home, enhancing overall comfort and delivering the health benefits that come when dry air is controlled. For use in living spaces, bedrooms, and even your office at work, a room humidifier keeps relative humidity levels under control wherever you are.

When to Use a Portable Humidifier

Whole house humidifiers are the best solution for overall moisture control, but they aren’t always an option, or may not be the best option for your particular issue. A few situations where portable humidifiers can rescue you from moisture problems include:

• If you rent your home or office, you don’t have control over installing a whole home humidifier. Instead, using portable humidifiers allows you to gain the benefits of added moisture anyway. Plus, you can take room humidifiers with you if you move.
• If you need a temporary moisture boost in certain areas, a portable humidifier is a great way to achieve that. Room humidifiers can be used to boost moisture in problem areas when the relative humidity levels are otherwise balanced across the home.
• If you or a loved one is sick or suffering allergy symptoms, using a room humidifier can alleviate symptoms and provide some relief.

Types of Portable Humidifiers

For room humidification, there are a few different options you have to choose from. While each type of room humidifier works to add moisture to your air, the process they use differs.

Types of portable humidifiers include:

• Cool mist humidifiers
• Ultrasonic humidifiers
• Evaporative humidifiers
• Warm mist humidifiers
• Vaporizer humidifiers
