How to moisten the air in the room?

In hot weather, it is difficult to stay in an apartment, a country house or at work. Warm air adversely affects human health, dissipates and dulls attention.

Pressure can rise or fall, efficiency decreases, because it is hard for a person to work thinking, reasoning, making decisions in such conditions.
Also, insufficient air humidity harms plants, books, musical instruments and furniture made of wood.
There are devices that moisturize the air, but apart from them you can moisten the air with the help of improvised means, which will be discussed in our article, how to moisten the air in an apartment or office.

Ice.

We make ice beforehand. We buy ice molds, pour tap water and put them in the freezer.

When the apartment is hot, we get ice and throw in pots with flowers or containers, which we place in the apartment.
The ice begins to melt and adds humidity to the room.

Fountain.

The fountain is an excellent decorative element for an apartment and a country house. There are small fountains, fountains of medium size or large for the garden.

How does a small fountain work?

The water is poured into the fountain, it turns on in the socket and the fountain starts to work. A stream of water soothes, relaxes.

It can be placed next to the flower pots, in the bedroom or in the living room.

In large companies fountains are located on the territory, in front of the building entrance. At lunchtime, employees can walk, enjoy the view and get positive emotions.

Aquarium.

The aquarium also refers to the means of humidifying the air. Even a small aquarium can easily cope with this task.

It should be remembered that in a strong heat in the aquarium water can be heated and you need to monitor the water temperature in it by a special thermometer. If the water in the aquarium is very warm, then the fish can die.

Airing.

Often open the windows in the office or apartment. This method is used in school and government institutions.

In cold weather, when you leave the room, open the windows, and when you are in the room, close it. Ideally 2-3 times a day for 10-15 minutes.

Wet cloth.

We cut the fabric into different pieces. Soak in a basin with cold water, then squeeze. Further lay out in the corridor, hang on the windows and put in the passage between the rooms.

Of course, this method is used in an apartment or a country house, the interior will not look very nice, but it slightly increases the humidity of the air.
In severe heat, the fabric dries quickly and you need to update the new one. After washing the laundry we take the floor drying, put in the room and hang out the laundry.

In winter, we hang the wet cloth on the battery.

Spray.

In the flower shop, you can buy a sprayer or a nozzle for a bottle that will spray water.
The atomizer is a small bottle, water is poured into it. The nozzle is twisted, the valve is pressed and the water is finely atomized.

In a strong heat, we spray water in all rooms, on doors, floors or curtains. It is better to store the nebulizer in the refrigerator and thus the water will be constantly cold.

Tanks with water.

Pour water into the vases, mugs, bottles and arrange it throughout the apartment.

For beauty inside the vessels you can put flowers, ordinary or decorative stones, shells.

If your apartment has a bath, then fill it with cold water and open the door wide.

For today on sale there are special capacities in which water is poured and they are hung up on the battery. Such containers are very useful in the winter, when the apartment is dry, but also saved in the summer, they also are in the form of animals.

Houseplants.

Home flowers ionize the air, moisturize it and clean it. Especially a lot of moisture is given to those plants that have large or many leaves: monstera, fern, chlorophytum, sheffler, diffenbachia, zamiokulkas, croton and others.

In the summer time, it is better to put all flowerpots in a deep tray on plastic caps from bottles. Excess water will drain into the pallet, and since there are lids, the plant will not be constantly in the water, and consequently the root system will not rot. Many flowers like humidity, so for them it will also be useful.

Humidifier.

In the shops there are different types of moisturizers. Before buying, you need to study in detail: noise level, humidification speed, filtration system, humidification area, power type, and also pay attention to other parameters.

The principle of their work is simple. The water is poured into the tank, it is connected to the network and the water is converted into steam. It is better to pour cold water.

If you pour water from the tap, after a few days the inside of the device turns from white to rusty, because the city water is not very good quality.

Air conditioning.

Air conditioning is an expensive pleasure that not every family can afford, but this is the most effective means for humidifying air from all available now and for all time.

When searching for work on the Internet, you can see the phrase “there is an air conditioner”. This means that the firm will take care of employees and its customers and in the office it will be pleasant to work and stay.

Fan.

The fan does not strongly humidify the room, because it basically chases warm air.

Fans are of different types.

For computer, which works via usb – wire. A fan is placed on the table, usually the air flow is on the face. Next, the wire is connected to the system unit and the fan runs while the computer is running. On sale from 600 rubles.

Table fan. It is small in size, made in such a way that it is placed on a table, has a stable surface, can be carried. It is inserted into the socket. On sale from 600 rubles.

Outboard fan. Ceiling fixing system. Lay out more than 10 000 rubles.
On sale there is a suspended fan with a chandelier.

Floor fan. Usually about a meter high and can be higher, put on the floor and plug into the outlet. On sale from 1300 rubles.

Hygrometer is a device for measuring air humidity.

If it is not, then you can check using the following method. We take a glass and fill it with cold water, put it in the refrigerator for a while and take it out. We put it in the room on the table and watch.

Dry air.
The walls of the glass became misty, and then dried up.

Humidity is average.
The glass remained fogged.

Humidity is increased.
Brooks of water appeared on the glass.

Use the above mentioned means from our article to eliminate dry air in the room. All ordinary light bulbs heat the air, so they need to be replaced with energy-saving ones.

The kitchen should be installed hood. When preparing food, it must always be switched on, so that the warm air flows do not spread throughout the apartment.

Darken the window spaces, then there will be less warm air in the apartment.

In an apartment and in an office with a normal microclimate it’s nice to be in a cafe where it’s not stuffy, it’s nice to come back.
