Ultrasonic Humidifiers

Ultrasonic humidifiers are a type of cool mist humidifier that can fill a room with cool, moist air. There are many styles and sizes of ultrasonic humidifiers, and which you choose will depend on who the humidifier is for and how often you’ll use it.

What is an ultrasonic cool mist humidifier?

Cool mist humidifiers are humidifiers with a filter and a fan. You fill them up with water and the water is pulled through the filter and pushed out through the fan. An ultrasonic humidifier is a type of cool mist humidifier that works in a slightly different way. It uses a high-speed vibrating plate that vibrates to turn the water into mist.

Benefits of ultrasonic humidifiers

There are no fans in ultrasonic humidifiers, and unlike other types of humidifiers, the water inside will not gurgle or create excess noise. This type of humidifier is considered one of the quietest cool mist humidifiers available.

Ultrasonic cool mist humidifiers are a great choice for anyone with pets or children as the water inside does not heat up. They are also a good choice to save on energy costs as they don’t require a heating element to run.

Ultrasonic humidifiers are a good all-year choice of humidifier because they won’t heat up the air in your home. You can use them in any room and they will emit a soothing mist, and you can add inhalants or essential oils to your water to ease breathing issues.

Unlike warm mist humidifiers, ultrasonic humidifiers do need to be cleaned occasionally. The water you use is simply pushed through a high vibrating plate and released, so they can have a build-up of bacteria or germs. Fortunately, ultrasonic humidifiers are designed to be easy to clean.

Which ultrasonic humidifier is best for you?

If you’re choosing a humidifier for a child or in a home with pets, there are a variety of child-friendly ultrasonic humidifiers available. You can choose a standard humidifier style with water reservoir or an ultrasonic humidifier that resembles a toy.

All types of ultrasonic humidifier will emit cool mist in rooms of all sizes, and some offer unique options like USB plugs, LED lights, and different spray modes. Some models will run for up to 70 hours without needing a refill, and many are available with night lights. You can even find ultrasonic humidifiers with the addition of a salt lamp to reduce negative ions in your home.
