As the cold winter weather settles, cold dry days are to come. While you can certainly feel the dry air outdoors, sometimes it’s easy to forget that the air in your home gets dry during the winter months as well.
With the assistance of humidifiers, you’ll likely find that you’ll be healthier and more well-rested. Humidifiers work by giving off water vapor or steam that adds to the moisture in your home. Read about the benefits of adding a humidifier to your home below.
Having humidifiers in the bedrooms in your home or even throughout your home can go a long way towards preventing overly dry and irritated skin during the winter months. Cold, dry air saps moisture from your skin, causing dryness, dullness, flaking, and accelerated aging.
A humidifier can help prevent all these damaging effects, and help you maintain that glowing, vibrant, youthful appearance.
During the dry winter months, your eyes, nose, and mouth all contain mucous membranes that can easily dry out. When your eyes are dry, we naturally rub them for relief, which can, unfortunately, cause additional irritation and watery eyes.
No worries, a humidifier puts more moisture in the air! With more moisture in the air, tears evaporate more slowly, keeping your eyes more comfortable.
One of the best benefits of a humidifier is its profound effect on airborne viruses. Did you know that colds and the flu are more present in the wintertime because of the dry air? Flu germs survive and spread more easily in dry air conditions.
The moisture that a humidifier produces keeps bacteria and germs from moving throughout your home or office. A humidifier could mean the difference between getting the flu/cold this winter and remaining healthy.
Winter air can dry out your sinuses, lowering your resistance to bacteria and viruses. Common flu symptoms such as a runny nose, sinus congestion, coughing, and a sore throat often make breathing unpleasant and tiresome.
Humidifiers help moisturize your nasal, throat, and lung passages, making it easier for air to pass through. Using a humidifier ensures that your nasal airways remain moist and helps to ward off bacteria and germs to breathe more comfortably.
If you are feeling under the weather, humidifiers help you feel better faster and shorten your healing process. Keeping your nasal passages and your throat moist will help you heal faster, and will reduce symptoms like coughing and sneezing. This can help you to get the rest you need to fight off the flu faster and get back to your normal routine.
If you or a partner snores, a humidifier may help. Using a humidifier to moisturize the air can assist in a more comfortable sleep, and also cut down on your snoring. Running the humidifier running throughout the day can help the tissues that are in the back of the throat to stay conditioned and moist, which allows people to have a comfortable sleep.
