It is very important to maintain the required level of air humidity in the room, because due to insufficient humidity, a deterioration in overall well-being is often observed. Dry air can dry out your throat and dry out your skin, which already needs to be moisturized regularly. Some of the first symptoms that signal that it is high time to humidify the air are cough, runny nose, lacrimation and inflammation of the eyeballs. This is how our body defends itself from dry and dusty air, which can subsequently cause a severe allergic reaction. Therefore, it is urgent to take measures to preserve your health and the health of your loved ones, pets, as well as the condition of furniture and indoor plants, because dry and dusty air negatively affects everything living and nonliving in this world. The optimal indoor humidity level is 40-60%.

Traditional methods of air humidification

In order to maintain the required level of humidity in the room, it is absolutely not necessary to use newfangled and expensive equipment from the store. Such a device can be made at home or use traditional methods.

• Open the bathroom door slightly so that the moisture that forms after water procedures can flow into other rooms and humidify the air.
• Sometimes dry things indoors - this will also help maintain the required level of humidity in the house.
• It is necessary to evaporate the water. To do this, you need to pour boiled water into any container and place it on the floor to create steam. In addition, you can add a few drops of essential oils to the water. This will have a beneficial effect on health, especially during periods of exacerbation of acute respiratory infections.
• Place water bottles near the radiator. The water will gradually evaporate and humidify the air.
• House plants. It has long been proven that house plants help improve the home microclimate and maintain the air in a favorable condition.
• Start an aquarium or equip a decorative fountain.
• Don't forget to regularly ventilate the room.
• Wet clean your home several times a week.
