Is A Warm Or Cool Humidifier Better?
There are benefits to both warm and cool humidifiers, so the best choice for your home depends on your needs. Cool mist humidifiers are often best-suited for everyday use, as they’re safe for children and pets and use less energy overall. There are also a wide range of cool mist humidifiers out there today, ranging from pocket-sized portable units to high-tech smart models that automatically maintain the moisture levels in your home.
On the other hand, warm mist humidifiers are generally preferred during the winter, especially if you’re dealing with a cough or congestion. The warm mist is often soothing when you’re sick, and it can also help to keep your home a bit warmer.
