Can a humidifier be filled with boiled water? Is it better to put a humidifier or a basin of water?

Generally speaking, the water in a humidifier needs to be changed every day, otherwise it may have a bad effect on the body. So can boiled water be added to the humidifier? Is it better to use a humidifier or put a basin of water?

Can the humidifier be filled with boiled water?

Yes. You can add boiled water to the humidifier, and it will not have a big impact, because boiled water is tap water that has been sterilized at high temperature. Most of the minerals, bacteria and other microorganisms in the tap water have been removed during the high temperature process. Adding it to the humidifier will not pollute the indoor air, and inhaling it will not affect human health. It just needs to be replaced and cleaned in time during use.

Is it better to put a humidifier or a basin of water?

Humidifiers are good. On the one hand, humidifiers are electrical products that can be easily taken and moved, without worrying about wetting the ground, and can be turned on and off at any time. They are easy to operate, beautiful in appearance, and small in size. On the other hand, humidifiers can atomize water vapor, and then evenly distribute it indoors with the flow of air, spreading to every corner of the room. While increasing the humidity of the air, it can also purify the air. Therefore, from the user experience, humidifiers are definitely better than putting a basin of water.

Does the humidifier consume a lot of electricity?

Not much. Generally speaking, the power consumption of household appliances is not too large, mostly within 100 watts, and humidifiers belong to the category of small household appliances, so even if the rated power of the humidifier is relatively large, it generally does not consume too much power. In addition, a humidifier is an appliance that increases the humidity of the environment for the human body. The temperature suitable for the human body has a certain range. When the humidifier increases the humidity or after the person leaves, it does not need to be used again, so the power consumption of the humidifier is not large.

What is the appropriate capacity of the humidifier?

It depends on the situation. The capacity of the humidifier determines the amount of water it can store. The larger the water storage capacity, the longer it can be used. The smaller the water storage capacity, the shorter the use time. Secondly, because the water in the humidifier is prone to breed bacteria and microorganisms and produce harmful substances, it needs to be replaced every day. It is recommended that a humidifier with a capacity of about 4-5 liters be selected for general household use.
