It is known that a person feels comfortable at a temperature of 18-22 ° C and at an air humidity of 40-60%. In winter, when the central heating batteries are turned on, the air dries up to 20%. It is drier than in the desert. Needless to say, this is very harmful to our health and appearance: the skin dries up and becomes very sensitive. There are several ways to avoid air drying.
Instruction manual
1
Firstly, even on the coldest day it is necessary to ventilate the room. But do not open the windows wide open. It is enough to open the window regularly. You will not increase much humidity in the room, although it will certainly become easier to breathe.
2
Place or suspend water containers near the battery. This can be done by cutting the plastic bottle along, filling it with water and placing it under the battery. You can also arrange mini-aquariums where you put aquatic plants. Fountains perform not only a decorative function in the room, but also evaporate water.
3
Home plants are known to be natural moisturizers. Imagine how these poor creatures suffer in winter. Therefore, often moisturizing them, you will get a double benefit: moisturize the air with which you breathe and save the plants. More than all other domestic plants, Cyperus absorbs and releases moisture. Having diluted the thickets of cyperus, you will enjoy a favorable microclimate in the room.
4
Another way - self-spraying water in the room. Do this with a spray gun. The air is well moistened, but this effect does not last very long.

The most effective way to humidify the air is to purchase an electric humidifier. The most silent and effective humidifiers are ultrasonic. Essential oils can be added to the water for such humidifiers, which, when evaporated, disinfect the air. Their only drawback is the high price, which, however, justifies itself in the process of operation. Traditional evaporators humidify the air with a fan that drives cold evaporating water from a special tank. The disadvantage of such a humidifier is noise. Also, they can only use distilled water, from the usual their filters are quickly clogged. Steam humidifiers are much more productive than traditional and inexpensive compared to ultrasonic humidifiers. But they, like the traditional ones, are very noisy.
