Air Humidifier Market Overview
An air humidifier is an air conditioning equipment that upsurges the moisture level of air in an entire building or a room. Commonly, for the humidification of a single room, residential humidifiers are used, while to deliver humidity to the entire household, the whole-house or furnace humidifiers are connected to a household's heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. Air humidifiers are also available for industrial, commercial, shopping complexes, institutional buildings, and others. Humidifiers help reduce indications of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Air humidifiers also help keep indoor plants safe when the temperature of the outside setting is low or below the standard temperature, which is essential for plant growth.
Furthermore, in some European countries, government guidelines are very stringent regarding the maintenance of humidity. In such countries, it is mandatory to maintain humidity, oxygen, and light for the packaging, manufacturing, warehouse, filling process, and other industrial and commercial sectors, which is also accountable for boosting the growth of the global air humidifier market growth. For instance, according to the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers based in England, the recommended relative humidity range is 40 – 60% in air-conditioned and dwellings buildings, and the levels of humidity in the range of 40 to 70% are suggested for the workplace environment.
