Spray Humidifier may produce scale during use.
The generation of scale mainly depends on the water quality used. If hard water is used, that is, water containing a high concentration of calcium, magnesium and other ions, then when the Spray Humidifier is working, as the water evaporates, the calcium, magnesium and other ions in the water will gradually settle down and form scale. Scale usually adheres to the water tank, atomizer, mist outlet and other parts of the humidifier.
The generation of scale will bring a series of problems to the use of Spray Humidifier. First, scale will affect the normal operation of the humidifier. If too much scale accumulates on the atomizer, it will reduce the vibration frequency of the atomizer, thereby reducing the spray volume and may even cause damage to the atomizer. Secondly, scale will affect the indoor air quality. When the humidifier sprays water mist with scale particles, these particles may be suspended in the air and may irritate the respiratory tract after being inhaled. In addition, scale will also affect the appearance and service life of the humidifier. If too much scale accumulates in the water tank, it will not only make the water tank look unhygienic, but also corrode the water tank and shorten the service life of the humidifier.
In order to reduce the generation of scale, the following measures can be taken. First, try to use pure water or distilled water as the water source of the humidifier. The calcium and magnesium ions in these waters are very low and almost no scale will be generated. Secondly, the humidifier can be cleaned regularly. When cleaning, the water tank, atomizer and other parts can be disassembled, soaked in weak acid solutions such as white vinegar and citric acid, and then rinsed with clean water. This can effectively remove scale. In addition, some water softening additives such as softeners and anti-scaling agents can be added to the humidifier. These additives can combine with calcium and magnesium ions in the water to prevent them from precipitating and forming scale.
In short, Spray Humidifier may generate scale during use, and the generation of scale will bring a series of problems to the use of the humidifier. In order to reduce the generation of scale, measures such as using pure water, regular cleaning, and adding water softening additives can be taken.
