About this deal

It’s also super stylish, very quiet, can be controlled via your smartphone or remote control, and it’s extremely easy to keep bacteria-free. There are no filters here; instead, Dyson uses a high-power UV lamp to kill off nasties before they’re pumped into the air. The only cleaning you have to do yourself is periodically to run a so-called “deep clean” which involves, essentially, descaling the parts that accumulate scale over time. For safety reasons, it is also important to follow manufacturer’s instructions when cleaning the device. Dust mites and mould, which can also cause many people to have mild allergic reactions, also benefit from higher humidity but thrive at levels of more than 70%. It's important to keep levels at around 40-50% for optimal results. It is thought that humidifiers are particularly useful for new parents attempting to get their babies' the best sleep quality possible. Like with adults, humidifiers aid breathing and reduce the symptoms of cold and flu. This is especially useful when babies and toddlers are under the weather, as they're less able to sleep through like older kids and adults. Whole-house humidifiers do a better job of covering the entire home, but are more complex to install because they connect to a home’s heating and cooling system.

However, a 2016 study found that steam inhalation is ineffective. The researchers behind the study observed that steam inhalation had no significant effect on symptoms of sinus congestion apart from relieving headaches. Are steam inhalers safe to use?

Most humidifiers on our list are ultrasonic, coming with the option of cool or warm mist. If you opt for a warm mist humidifier, then it's important to keep these away from unsupervised children or pets.

Humidifiers often have a choice of continuous or intermittent spray patterns, giving you a non-stop stream for six to 12 hours, or a longer running time with regular pauses. You may also get additional heat, mist or power levels, depending on the technology used. Prevention: During winter, the air inside your home can become dryer, due to the heating and the cold air outside. This can lead to irritated throat and nasal passages, which can let you more vulnerable to winter illness. Humidifiers add moisture into the air you breathe, and allow to keep your throat and nasal passages hydrated. Use with VapoPads Menthol or Rosemary & Lavender for additional soothing vapours and extra comfort. You don’t get a sensor or any automatic controls – you’ll need the more expensive Dual 200S for that – but the Dual 150 puts out plenty of fine mist, raising the humidity in our test room by around 18% in half an hour. It’s also very quiet, measuring 28dB at most, which makes it perfect for a living room or bedroom. What’s more, you can add essential oils and aromas to the water without fear of damaging the ultrasonic mechanism. Compact, effective and affordable, it’s an excellent choice for a quiet bedroom or any smaller space. In general, a higher level of moisture in the air (though not over 50%) promotes better sleep for everyone, including babies.

Increase your air quality, improve your health and get a good night’s sleep

Alternatively, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend the following when treating nasal congestion: No matter what, humidifiers need to be cleaned regularly to prevent bacteria and mould from developing and causing health problems of their own. Do this with natural solutions such as vinegar, rather than bleach or other chemical cleaners. Are humidifiers good for babies?

With frequent cleaning, this shouldn't cause too much of a problem, but it's something to keep in mind if you live in an area where the tap water is particularly hard. Which humidifier is best? Humidifiers and essential oils (like scented VapoPads) can help you and your family stay healthy during the cold season. We found it really easy to control the strength of the flow of steam, and it barely makes any noise, which certainly isn’t the case with many similarly-priced humidifiers. It even lets you scroll through various colours until you find your ideal ambience, and add oils such as eucalyptus to give the room a lovely fragrance.

According to Healthline, allergies that cause symptoms such as nasal congestion and inflammation will indeed be relieved by greater levels of moisture in the air.

For added soothing vapours, use with VapoPads Menthol or Rosemary & Lavender (Optional) essential oils It’s also great at filtering out indoor air pollution and a mighty powerful fan to boot. Expensive, then, but it does a lot and looks exceedingly attractive, too. This is our most expensive option, but there’s enough purifying and humidifying power here to take care of a 26m² space, while the larger UA-HD50U-L will handle rooms of up to 38m². Splash the cash, and your sinuses or skin will thank you. Veridian Steam Inhaler : This steam inhaler works with distilled or tap water and provides treatments of up to 9 minutes.
