Honeywell Humidifier

My 10 week old has a little cough and some congestion. The pediatrician is not worried, but I would like to provide some relief to my child. I would like to add some eucalyptus oil to our Vicks Warm Air humidifier. Our model has a liquid medicine chamber just for this purpose. How many drops of oil should I add per night and do I need to mix the drops with another substance like olive oil? Are there other essential oils that are beneficial to babies to encourage relaxation during sleep?

My humidifier is making a trickling noise when it’s on and I can’t find my user’s manual to troubleshoot this. I’ve searched online and can’t find it anywhere either. Any suggestions??

I recently got a Cool Mist Air Humidifier, maybe less than2 weeks ago,and my room has usually been at 65/66/67 for personal preference (I sleep really well if it is cold and my lizards don’t mind it and I don’t myself) but the Cool Mist is bringing my room down in temperature a lot. Currently my room is 61 degrees and it is 24 degrees outside – Winter. What do you suggest I do? It does help me breathe when sleeping. Thanks!

Our air is so dry since we had a new A/C and heating unit installed. We would like to buy a small, quiet, efficient humidifier that is easy to take care of.

We have been given an older model humidifier. It’s about 3 ft. tall with a big fibrous belt that goes around inside.( It kinda looks like a small chest) It has a funky smell and I want to clean it without causing damage o it or our air quality.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

In the hot summers, people use dehumidifiers to remove moisture and cool down your home.
So on average during the winter we keep our thermostat at 20°C
Will using a humidifier to release moisture into the air warm a room?
Scratch the last line!

i have terrible allergies and i am always sick. i was thinking about getting an air purifier or a humidifier but im not sure which would be best for me. i have a lot of major electronics in my room and im not sure if the humidifier would interfere with them. also, if i get an air purifier i would like it to be one that you clean the filter because i cant afford to keep buying replacements. does it sacrifice quality to get one with a re-usable filter??

which one would you recommend?
have any other suggestions on what else i could do??

one thats easy to fill and actually puts a good amount of humidity into a single room.

the walmart ones did not work well for me. what brand is best? sunbeam and honeywell were not good for me.

We have been told that a humidifier is good if you live in dry climate (we do) but that also a fan would be helpful to keep fresh air circulating. That seems like a lot of appliances on at once in a smaller room. Do we really need both? We live in a condo building so our nursery does not have a window as it is towards our front door which is in an indoor hallway, so a fan is probably a good idea, the humidifier I am not so sure of. What do you think?

I am trying to set up my nursery, which will be a small bedroom. There is not a lot of room to have it all. Which product is the most needed, dehumidifier, humidifier or mister, or an air purifier?

I just bought a cool air humidifier and i’m wondering if it’s ok to leave it on all night and need some info about it >: over long term is there anything I should watch out for? So far I know that I should clean it daily and watch out for germs/bacteria since they thrive on humid areas, and as for the place I set it on >.> its a small table and it got wet, so I put a towel under it lol. Can anyone give me the info that im looking for? Thank You (and I got it because i’m sick x_x allergies turned into maybe a cold)

How can I create warm humid air inside my boas enclosure? I have
used the fogger near the heated side but it eventually get colder. I have rigged up a humidifier with an air tube. If i add warm water it stays warm for only a short time. Any suggestions?

Humidifiers are primarily used during the dry season; which could also be considered the cold season. So, it makes sense for there to be hot-air humidifiers but where do cold-air models fit in? You still need to keep your room warm, but with some heating options like hot air heat it seems like it would cancel out any benefit of having a cold-air humidifier, since it would have to be on high constantly just to compensate for the heating. I’ve heard many people say it’s good to keep your room cool even when you have a cold/sore throat but I don’t understand how this could be better than the healing benefits of hot steam air or even a sauna. What are the benefits of a cold room? It’s 75 in my room right now and I’m still cold because this evaporative cold-air humidifier is pumping out cold air. I’m thinking I’ll trade it in for a Vick’s vapor rub humidifier. What’s the correct answer here?

Thanks for any help.

walls been looked at and no damp just said nedd air to go round ! have window vent open always and window open most days,daught around window seal as well..seems plenty of air about..weird

Just installed an Flow Though AIR KING 6000 Humidifier with an electronic display. The display keeps flashing the original factory settings. When I adjust the temp it resets and continures flashing. If I adjust it past the relitive humidity point, it turns the relay on for a split second and resets and continues flashing. Can’t seem to get this thing working.

We have had a couple of cold fronts blow in this week and my son’s voice has been a little hoarse, he has had a slightly stuffy nose, breathing heavier at night and has been generally cranky. He is 7 months old. I am not sure if it is allergens in the air or that the air is drier than normal. I don’t think the symptoms are severe enough to be a cold. Should I use a humidifier or do you have any other suggestions? Thanks!

I have a small retail humidifier and use it in our babies’ room. During the winter we need the humidity. Now the air is more moist, we don’t need the humidity but we do need the white noise. Is it safe to run it without water?

I swear I go through humidifiers like crazy! All the ones I get just seem to kind of spray a mist into the air in the area of the humidifier but the overall moisture in the room never gets better. The past 3 that Ive had (and they werent cheep!) i put right next to my bed….. it misted water into the air and soaked my nightstand and side of my bed…and even though it was less than a foot away from my head, I still find myself waking up stuffy and dry.

Sometimes I boil a pot of water on the stove and the steam seems to really help the air in my kitchen/dining room….but I obviously cant keep a pot of boiling water on the stove all night (and its not realistic for adding moisture to the bedrooms..)..

What brand humidifier can you reccomend for me? I dont have a tun of money to spend but I’m willing to pay for something that works really well.
Not looking for an air purifyer or filter..just something to add moister into the room.
I do have a honeywell air filter that I love.

My son has asthma and is very sensitive to dry air from the furnance. Someone told me that I can add a furnace humidifier. But there is not enough room near to furnace to do that. I am wondering whether there is any furnace or portable heater which comes with humidifier built in it. A separate humidifier doesn’t seem to help my son so far.

Thanks

I drive semi for a living and it tends to get very dry inside the truck. I’m planning on purchasing a humidifier for the truck soon, but I started wondering today if too much dry air can also cause a person to get sick, or at least help contribute to it. I know that it makes my eyes feel discomfort and my lungs feel raspy, but can the dry air actually be a contributing factor to your health? Thanks in advance!

I’m a poor college student and can’t afford a humidifier, but I’m tired of waking up with dry sinuses, a really sore throat, and sometimes a bloody nose.

Alternative ways to get some moisture in the air?

The air is really dry in my dorm room because I constantly have hot air coming from the vent (I’m always cold). However, this is making my skin and throat unbearably dry. I want to increase the humidity of the air in my room, but I don’t have a humidifier? What can I do?

I have a warm air humidifier, and i put a little vicks vaporub on the top, where there’s like a little space to put stuff. Is this okay to do? will it help my runny nose and cough?
