Does a Mabis steam inhaler vaporizer create moisture on surrounding objects like a humidifier does?

No but who can actually stay there connected to the thing long enough? i bought a regular vaporisor and put a towel under it.

I doubt it. I haven't used this yet but the Vicks doesn't. Your mouth and nose receive all the moisture.
1608960
It does not. The steam that comes out of the machine is pretty contained to the immediate vacinity of the mouth/nose guard.
1608961
No it doesn't. You use it for a briefer time than a humidifier and the steam is being directed into you rather than filling the room. I have asthma and use my steam inhaler to help during bad breathing times and especially when I am ill.

No. The mask fits right up to your face and the inhaler has a small compartment that you can put oils or Vicks in. Doesn't hold much water so it requires refilling

Not that I have seen, but I used it in a Swiss made humidifier that I paid a lot for and left it over night. It had a brass part in it that did not seem to be affected.

A purifier would not add any moisture to the air. If your air is dry, you would still need a humidifier.

On the package it says: Use in all wick and filter-type humidifiers. Not for use in vaporizer/ultrasonics.

Yes, in an enclosed area it does create some moisture from the steam of the dryer. Run the dehumidifier with the dryer.

Pretty much. White dust happens when minerals are vapors along with the water, and is essentially only a feature of ultrasonic humidifiers. In other types evaporation happens in the unit, rather than in the air after vaporisation (which is how ultrasonic units work-they're vaporizers rather than evaporators). Heat and wick units get scale in the unit, instead of white dust. Makes it easier to clean, since it's all in one easy plat.

This model humidifies via a saturated filter - you won't see any vapor as you would from an ultrasonic mechanism. Ultrasonics work well but are IMHO a real pain to maintain. This works well also and you just need to change the filters periodically. Two hours is usually not nearly long enough to detect a humidity increase. If your home has been very dry, 12 hours at least.

It has both. But my humidistat broke. Whytner sent me instructions on the fix but I haven't tried it yet.Additionally I'd like to report it is highly efficient and very quiet. I'd buy it again.

So sorry to say, it does NOT. It's a fabulous diffuser, but not strong enought to emit a true humidifying effect.

I don't know if this will help. But, water would condensate in the handle part of the humidifier. This happen twice. I gave it a good cleaning and have not experience any other problems.

This humidifier have to sit on a flat surfice due to it's method of producing the steam. Please make sure to put it on the flat surfice. If you have any further question, please contact to support@elliotdepot.com Thanks.

No. Definitely not. If you're wanting something that adds a measurable amount of moisture to the air, get an actual humidifier. This diffuser is only about 6 inches tall, and outputs less than 1 cup of water over about 6-8 hours. I use it for aromatherapy and it sits on my desk at work. It's that small.

any of the above... I have a atomizer humidifier. You can even mix this will oil and use as a spritzer.

no the only problem i had was taking off the little bottle on the bottom of the humidifier i`m using peppermint oil thanks for the warning now i will keep an eye on this good luck

No, it's an evaporative. You won't see the vapors like with a mist humidifier.

No, but I never use in humid weather. Mostly, in winter time and/or when window's closed. I also put mine on a pedastule so that it will sit high. Initially, I had concerns about it running near any electronics but I can run it a few feet from my laptop and no problems. I thought that it didn't even leave a build up film (like humidifiers do) but it actually does sometimes, just lighter. I noticed that if my glasses (eyewear) are near and it runs the full time, I need to clean them before using. But no dampness concerns.

Hi. It's just too dangerous that's why. Ultrasonic and vaporizer type humidifiers expel the water + chemical solution throughout the room. Standard evaporation type humidifiers just evaporates water, and the chemical stays in the tank to do its job. These chemicals are alkyl dimethyl and diethyl ammonium chlorides. It is highly concentrated in the bottle, and causes damage to mucosal surfaces as well as the cornea. It's just like any chemical (chloride for example) that is dangerous at high concentrations.
