Air humidifiers are devices designed to increase moisture levels in the air, either in a single room or an entire building. Point-of-use humidifiers are commonly used in homes to humidify individual rooms, while whole-house or furnace humidifiers, connected to a home's HVAC system, provide humidity for the entire house. These devices add moisture to the air, offering benefits for individuals with respiratory symptoms or dry skin.
The primary types of air humidifiers include portable humidifiers and whole-house humidifiers. Portable humidifiers are standalone devices placed in a room to add moisture to the air. Vaporizers, ultrasonic humidifiers, and evaporative humidifiers are examples of portable humidifiers, each utilizing different technologies to introduce moisture into the air. Air humidifiers find applications in commercial, industrial, and residential settings, with distribution occurring through both online and offline channels.
