Meaco is delighted to announce the launch of the Meaco Deluxe 202 humidifier, a humidifier and air purifier in one, to help improve winter health for all the family.
As the temperature falls, the combination of cold weather and central heating makes for dry air conditions in our homes. This can lead to health problems, with many people suffering from dry skin, sore throats, a dry cough, cracked lips and itchy eyes. There is an added concern that dry air can increase the risk of exposure to infections and have a negative effect on those with respiratory conditions and allergies.
How a humidifier works
A humidifier is a device that emits water vapour or steam to increase moisture levels in the air (humidity). This moisture can prevent the movement of germs, as they combine with this moisture and simply drop, so can reduce the chance of catching a common cold or flu.
It has been suggested that humidity levels above 40 per cent* rapidly deactivate virus particles, making them much less likely to be infectious. Ultrasonic micro-vibrations splits water into very small droplets that are fanned into the air, creating a pleasant, warm, or cooled visible mist. It is this gentle mist that helps remedy the problems caused by dry air.
A HEPA filter removes physical allergens from the air and a charcoal filter removes odours. An inbuilt aroma diffuser allows a person to add a favourite essence to the air, while an ioniser keeps the air fresh. The water is cleaned by an ultraviolet lamp prior to humidification so ensuring the humidified air that is breathed in has been sterilised first.
This unique combination of sterilisation of the water before humidification and the HEPA and charcoal cleaning the air, makes the Meaco Deluxe 202 Humidifier well placed for providing a clean air solution for a wide range of users. Finally, having cleaned the air and softened and cleaned the water the mist spray can be ionised to help clean the air further.
What are the benefits of using a humidifier?
Get better quality sleep
Improving the quality of sleep can be achieved with a humidifier, especially for children suffering from colds and for snorers, as the moist air will soothe the tissues at the back of the throat.
Relieve allergy symptoms and irritated skin
Well-balanced humidity levels can limit the spread of allergens in the air and on surfaces. The humidifier creates extra moisture that a person breathes in will also help relieve a dry cough and aids people suffering from dry or itchy skin, peeling or chapped lips and dry eye irritation.
A healthy environment for babies
Baby’s skin, which is particularly sensitive to dry climates, will stay soft and clear as a humidifier will help retain its natural moistness, stopping tender red patches. A humidifier in a baby nursery provides protection against dry air, to create optimal breathing conditions that loosen the build-up of mucus, allowing babies to sleep comfortably.
Protect wooden furniture and musical instruments
Some of the less well-known benefits of using a humidifier are that it can help protect wooden furniture within the home, and in particular musical instruments, as it will stop these valuable items from drying out, preventing cracking and warping.
Dedicated to providing clean air for homes
Built to very high standards with a pleasing, simple digital display, the Meaco Deluxe 202 Humidifier has a hard water filter to remove limescale and two-directional nozzles to reduce the chances of condensation from forming in front of the humidifier. Low noise levels and a night mode helps you fall asleep peacefully, particularly useful for young children suffering from colds.
Meaco has been dealing with regulating the level of moisture in the air since 1991, first in museums and art galleries and then in people’s homes. The launch of the Meaco Deluxe 202 Humidifier is our next step in providing a clean air solution with this humidifier and air purifier in one.
