Vaporizer Facts

Room vaporizers can be an easy and low-cost solution for people with respiratory problems as well as for those who live in a home that has dry air, which sometimes results in static electricity.

Function

• The function of a room vaporizer is to add moisture into the air. It helps to alleviate nasal congestion and other problems caused by dry air.

Features

• Room vaporizers feature a reservoir which is filled with water, a spinning disk and a spout. The spinning disk causes the water to evaporate, dispersing out of the spout.

Types

• Vaporizers come in two types: cool mist and steam. The steam vaporizer heats the water while the cool mist does not.

Considerations

• A cool-mist vaporizer is a better choice for use in a child's room, as a child could easily be burned by a steam vaporizer.

Benefits

• Room vaporizers are beneficial for sinus sufferers. Adding a liquid product that contains camphor to a steam vaporizer helps to relieve respiratory problems. Camphor opens up nasal passages and relieves persistent coughing.
