Will the air in the room get dry? Will I need a humidifier?

Electrolux Z7040 Frequently asked questions
air cleaner affects the air flow in a room in the same way that a fan does. It removes only particles from the air – not humidity. You therefore do not need to buy a humidifier just because you are using an air cleaner. No. The ionising unit in Electrolux Air cleaner contains two grids that keep ionisation confined to the machine. No ions are released into the room.

I have a humidifier on my supply duct. Can I install the UV air purifier near the humidifier?

CaluTech Blue - Ultraviolet Clean Air UV Air Purifiers
Yes, at or above the humidifier. If you install it below the humidifier water droplets can drip down on the lamps and shorten their life. The Blue UV air purifier is certified for wet locations by CSA as safe. Even more, Snapcat uses moisture to further activate its oxy cleaning power. You would have been better off with the unit on always, not connected to a relay or switch on the fan. When the fan isn't running the pathogens and mold spores in the air don't stop too.

Can I use aromatherapy oils with the misting humidifier - air purifier?

Misting Mister Fountain Lamp FAQ Help Replacments
ABSOLUTELY YES! VERY IMPORTANT: By using your misting lamp as an aromatherapy diffuser you eliminate burning candles, which give off pollutants they contain from burning petroleum-based paraffin wax. You need only a tiny amount to add fragrance to the room, or the whole house, so use very sparingly, only a few drops! Add the fragrance oils directly to the water, but not directly on top of the mister unit.

How often should the Air Washerâ??s humidifier be de-scaled?

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions — PLASTON
In general a light layer of limescale on the humidifier discs is considered beneficial. This layer enlarges the surface area of the discs and considerably improves the humidification performance. The humidifier should therefore not be de-scaled too often. As the hardness of water is different everywhere, it is not possible to generalise about how often the humidifier should be de-scaled.

Should I install some kind of an air exchange / de-humidifier system with a panel house?

Frequently Asked Questions about Structural Insulated Panels...
Yes. IB Panels create a very tight envelope. Bringing in fresh air through an air-exchanger is better than a non-controlled (as through stud in standard framing), which creates heat loss. Panels are delivered by common carrier, or by IB Panels, on a flat-bed trailer. Panels are bound in units and are very compact, and do not take up a lot of load space. Costs involved are approximately $2.00 per loaded mile.

Can I used softened water in my Desert Spring humidifier?

Desert Spring furnace humidifier frequently asked questions ...
Yes. Do keep in mind that a water softener does not actually remove hard water minerals though. It works to keep calcium and magnesium suspended in the water by causing sodium ions to combine with carbonates in the water so that the hard water minerals cannot combine to form mineral scale. When the soft water evaporates, it will still leave behind a residue, often more than if a softener were not used.
