Steam humidifier system
In order for water to vaporaze,it must be heated. This is done with an electrically operated heating element and an evaporation space. That water is heated and converted into steam, which is dispersed through a small opening.
The hot steam delivers energy to the room air, raising the room temperature slightly. Steam Humidifiers are very powerful. For this reason, the humidification must be checked or, even better, controlled with a hygrostat to save energy.
Advantages
- Very reasonably priced
- High humidity output
- Very easy to care for
- The principle guarantees absolutely germ, bacteria and mineral-free humidification (residues remain in the container in solid form)
- Steam Humidifiers give off heat to the indoor air
- Can also be used as hot inhalation appliances – containers are placed by the steam outlet for inhalation agents or other aroma improvers
Disadvantages
- Steam Humidifiers noises can be heard in completely quiet surroundings
- Hygrostat required for optimal use
- Relatively high energy consumption
- The first 8 to 10 cm of steam coming out of the opening are very hot. Children, especially toddlers, should therefore not be left on their own with the appliance unsupervised.
Energy and output
- Rapid humidification, as the steam humidifiers reach full output after a few minutes
- Humidity output up to 400 g/h
- Relatively high energy consumption – power consumption up to 400 W
- Reduction in heating energy possible, as steam humidifier give of heat with the steam
- The appliance is only in operation for a brief period because it is so powerful (use of a hygrostat is recommended)
Accessories
- Steam Humidifiers do not need any accessories or any kind of water conditioners
- A hygrostat is recommended, as the steam humidifiers is very powerful, otherwise there is a risk of over-humidification
Tips on care / storage
- When re-filling, always empty residual water first and rinse out residues
- Decalcify the appliance 1 to 2 times a month (depending on the hardness of the water)
- Our recommendation: CalcOff for simple cleaning
- Clean the appliance after the season and decalcify. Place the insert in the container opening, do not screw down.
- Store the appliance in a cool place.
Hygiene
- Absolutely flawless
- During vaporization, the water is heated, which eliminates of germs and bacteria
