How do I clean my humidifier?
I recently bought a cool mist humidifier. It smells slightly musty and am wondering how to clean it. The back of the box says to use vinegar weekly. Do I fill the entire 2 gallon humidifier and let it run, stinking up my entire house? Do I wipe down the insides? Any other ideas?
answers:
Wipe down the insides and when you refill it, add about a tablespoon of liquid bleach to the water. This helps kill molds and bacteria that can form in the tank(s).

What does a humidifier does to a baseball?
I want to know what happens when you put a baseball in a humidifier in Colorado? What is the difference between a normal ball in Colorado and a humidified ball in Colorado?
answers:
A humidifier adds moisture. So the ball becomes wetter and heavier.

What does a humidifier do to help a night cough?
I understand that it puts moisture in the air, but what exactly does that do and what else does a humidifier do?
answers:
WITH THE HEAT ON IT DRIES OUT THE MUCUS MEMBRANES AND MAKES THE BODY PRODUCE MORE MUCUS. WITH THE ADDED HUMIDITY IT SOOTHS THE NASAL PASSAGES AND ALSO YOUR BREATHING. YOU MUST MAKE SURE THAT THE HUMIDIFIER IS KEPT CLEAN AND USE DISTILLED WATER. DO NOT PUT AD DATIVES IN THE WATER.
