Question

Do humidifiers have an impact on babies?

Answer

If humidifiers are not kept clean, bacteria can be dispersed in the air with the steam, posing a health risk. Additionally, it is not advisable to add tap water directly to humidifiers, as the minerals in tap water can damage the evaporator and affect its lifespan. If the tap water has high hardness, the mist emitted by the humidifier may contain calcium and magnesium ions, leading to white powder. This not only pollutes indoor air but may also contribute to air pollution.
