Hydrogen Peroxide in Humidifier Safety
On the safety of hydrogen peroxide used in humidifiers
In recent times, people have paid much attention to the way of health care. Humidifiers are often placed in the room to moisturize the air. However, there are discussions about adding hydrogen peroxide to humidifiers. How safe it is needs to be discussed in detail.
Hydrogen peroxide has strong oxidizing properties. In physicians, it is often used as a disinfectant to kill all kinds of germs. However, the function of a humidifier is to increase air humidity, not to sterilize and sterilize. If hydrogen peroxide is added to it, it will evaporate and disperse in the air, and people will be involved in breathing.
The respiratory tract of the lady's body is delicate and sensitive. The gas of hydrogen peroxide enters the respiratory tract, or causes irritation to the mucosa. In mild cases, cough, dry throat, and itchy nose; in severe cases, it may damage the tissues of the respiratory tract and cause inflammation and diseases. And it persists in the air for a long time, or reacts chemically with the surrounding objects, producing unknown substances, and its harm to the human body and the environment is unpredictable.
Furthermore, humidifiers in the city are all designed according to the needs of humidification, without considering the adaptation to hydrogen peroxide. Adding hydrogen peroxide may damage the structure and components of the humidifier, reduce its lifespan, or cause failure and endanger safety.
In summary, putting hydrogen peroxide in a humidifier has many hidden dangers and is not a safe move. In order to maintain fresh air and human health, a humidifier should be used in an appropriate manner, and chemicals such as hydrogen peroxide should not be added rashly to avoid endless damage.
