Humidifier for our baby’s room
The humidifier increases the humidity in the baby’s room and in the house in general. It is a device that contains a container where the water is introduced. Through different systems, the water evaporates and becomes part of the air in the room where it is placed. This increases humidity and makes the air you breathe less aggressive for the respiratory tract.
With babies, or young children, it will be important to control that the temperature and humidity of the house are adequate. In winter, with the use of heating, the temperature increases and the humidity decreases, and also by keeping the windows closed for longer, the air is not renewed in the same way as at other times of the year.
Precisely at that moment is when the humidifier comes into action. Getting a less dry environment helps in the case of respiratory infections such as colds, pharyngitis, laryngitis or bronchitis.
Types of humidifiers
We can find a wide variety of models, but classifying them we find two types: hot steam humidifiers and cold steam humidifiers.
Hot steam
This type of humidifier boils water through an electrical resistance. They manage to raise the temperature of the room between 1 and 3 degrees, but special care must be taken not to burn yourself with the hot steam.
Cold steam
They have a water tank that passes through a wet filter and, with the help of a fan, produces steam at room temperature, without increasing the temperature of the room.
When to use the humidifier
Pediatricians recommend that it not be used for more than 20 minutes, until the appropriate level of humidity is achieved. This moisture meter may be integrated into the humidifier. It is not advisable to leave it running overnight. The perfect thing would be to turn it on before putting the child to bed. A timed humidifier may be a good alternative.
