Both the Honeywell cool mist humidifier and ultrasonic humidifier models add moisture to the air in your home. Air that is overly dry can irritate the sinuses, making the body more susceptible to the effects of respiratory illnesses and allergies. Dry air also increases static electricity in your home and contributes to issues like dry skin.

So, adding a Honeywell humidifier can help make your home more comfortable, especially during winter months when it can be particularly dry in some regions. A Honeywell whole house humidifier can even help to protect wood furniture and floors from drying out and cracking.

In colder months, you will also benefit from humidification because it can increase the effectiveness of heating systems within your home. For a simple heating solution for smaller spaces, think about using a Honeywell warm mist humidifier in conjunction with a Honeywell space heater.

To get the most out of your Honeywell humidifier, clean it regularly. This will help to eliminate bacteria and mineral build-up that can clog your machine or be released into the air. You should always use distilled water instead of tap water to keep the buildup of minerals in the tank to a minimum. If you do have mineral build-up, look up the differences between descaling and cleaning techniques.

Additionally, if using a warm mist humidifier, ensure that it is out of reach of children because the mist coming out of it is hot. With all humidifiers, it is best to keep them far from surfaces, such as shelves or ceilings, that can warp, stain or mildew due to repeated moisture exposure.

You can also increase the quality of the air in your home with other great Honeywell products, like a Honeywell air purifier. And, in warmer months of the year, you may actually benefit from using a dehumidifier in your home.
