FAQs
1. What size humidifier do I need for a 2,000 sq. ft home?
Opt for models with 3,000 sq. ft coverage (like the 20L humidifier) to ensure even distribution and avoid overworking smaller units.
2. How often should I clean my humidifier?
Clean tanks weekly with vinegar to prevent mold. Filters (if present) require monthly rinsing or replacement—check our maintenance guide for details.
3. Are warm mist humidifiers safe around children?
Yes, if they have auto-shutoff and cool-touch exteriors. The Dreo HM713’s safety features make it child-friendly.
4. Do humidifiers help with allergies?
Evaporative models (like LEVOIT 6000S) reduce airborne irritants without dispersing minerals, easing allergy symptoms.
5. Can I use tap water in ultrasonic humidifiers?
It’s not recommended—use distilled water to avoid white dust. Some models include demineralization cartridges for tap water use.
