How To Keep An Air Humidifier Clean
Posted: Jul 01, 2014
In today’s day and age, an air humidifier has become a necessity without which people just cannot survive. Used for cleaning the environment (and sometimes, for cooling it up), air humidifiers are needed in every household and every official environment. Precisely because they are so essential, it becomes even more necessary to make sure that they function properly and carry out their job well. In order to ensure that they operate smoothly, owners need to regularly clean their air humidifiers.
How often one cleans their air humidifier will depend largely on how frequently they use it. If it is being used constantly, then it is recommended that people clean it every day. Since it is constantly functioning 24/7, it would not only need the rest but one will also need to clear out the accumulated dust. If it is used less often, one can go ahead and clean it once or twice a week.
In order to clean the humidifier, owners will first need to get the following things. Firstly, they will need to mix water and white vinegar together and then pour the mixture into a spray bottle. This will be used for cleaning the spots. Moving on, one will need a soft brush, some more white vinegar, household bleaching powder and a big saucepan.
The first step is to take the air purifier Singapore apart. Separate the motor from the rest of the humidifier and remove the water tank from the base. The next step is to fill in the water tank with water, preferably lukewarm and then mix in some household bleaching powder. This can be put aside for a half hour. After that, the next step is to mix in two big cups of the vinegar in the large saucepan with some water. This mixture will be used to clean the filters of the humidifier. The filters need to be placed in the saucepan for thirty minutes so that the dust and dirt can come off easily (if there is any dust left, it can be removed by hand after the cleaning process is complete).
The base of the air purifier Singapore can be cleaned by filling it up with white vinegar (without the water this time) and letting it sit for thirty minutes. It is highly likely that after the time is up, there will be some white vinegar residue or solution left up in the base. This can be cleaned using the brush with soft bristles. When the base is being rinsed, one must sterilize it by pouring in huge amounts of bleach every time water is used to rinse the base. This is a necessary step that will clean out the oily feeling left behind by the humidifier.
After that one can use the spray bottle to clean any spots that are left behind on the base, tank and the filters. Lastly, it will be good to inspect the humidifier carefully before putting it all back together and resuming ordered use.Kelvin Deacon is a specialist in home air purifiers and a href=http://www.biocair.com.sg/best humidifier and if you'd need to find out more be sure to go to Biocair.com.sg
