Why does my humidifier say to use only "soft water" and never "hard water"?

Hard water has minerals in the water that eventually will build up in the humidifier.  These deposits will evenutally affect the performance of the humidifier.  Some cities or areas add softeners to their water to curb the buildup of mineral deposits in showerheads, faucets, etc.

Only hard water. It was the Ice Age

The humidity/heat make breathing difficult, but also if you are on city water, alot of chemicals are added to kill bacteria and diseases in the water-these chemicals tend to cling to moisture like vapour particles which you then breathe in.  Maybe it was all a bit much for you- or you are developing a sensitivity-we are bombarded with toxins in the air 24/7.  Mention it next time you are at the doctors, go to the hospital if it happens and doesn't subside.

Do a search on Swamp Coolers. It is a box with a squirrel cage fan, a water supply and pads around the exterior to humidify the air. This system of cooling will only be able to humidify the air to about 35%. If you are in a humid area, try something else.

It is the dry air which causes such a problem.  Check for the humidity levels as undue dryness will aggravate your problem.

It is because the continuous flow of air can dehydrate an erode the mucosa. so the body has a mechanism to rehydrate the mucosa so it wont be damaged by the air flow\nthe way in which the body does this is by opening the blood flow through one nostril causing a normal swelling of the mucosa, this swelling prevents air from passing through there and at the same time provides water to the cells. then the same thing  happens on the other side.\nThe open side has a little less blood flow than the closed side. \nthey switch almost every 20 to 30 minutes \nbesides this the blood flow is designed to warm the air and humidify it although most of this humidification will take place in the trachea (windpipe) where there is water in vapor form.

The closths are all rubbing against each other in the drier. And they are made of different materials (polyester, cotton, nylon and blends). While they are still wet, any electricity built up from the rubbing in the drier is dispersed through the water and the positive and negative charges short out, leaving a net of zero. \n\nBut as they dry, it gets harder and harder for the electrical charge to 'flow' and it just accumulates on different fabrics. More positive on some, more negative on others. And since this charge cannot easily flow, it's called 'static electricity'. And the postive charge on one peice of clothing attracts the negative charge on another and they 'stick'.

first run it thru a birm/ philox bed then a cation bed - how pure of water do you want???  add a RO filter and you wont have much of anything but pure drinking water (1 to 10 T.D.S.)

softeners are meant to be used in washing machines and dryers, not in sentences!

My husband and I suffer from a similar problem.  I have sensitive skin, but he does not.  I suspect our hard water might have something to do with the irritation.  We have not gotten a water softener, but you may want to check that out.

You can try to degas your mobile phase and make sure that all fittings are tight (leaks can prevent pressure from accumulating).  You can also try wet priming 2-3 times - sometimes once is not enough.

Bath salts are good for this.  I just went looking (Google) and found a number of recipes.  Most include oils and aromatics, which are optional.  What isn't optional is sodium.  Sodium ions displace the calcium and magnesium ions that make water hard, and that's what a water softener does.  One recipe called for 1/2 cup plain salt and 1 tablespoon each baking soda and borax.  You could try just plain salt, too.  Experiment with the amount to see how much you need.  I hope it works!  It won't hurt you, anyway.

I would consult with the unit manufacturer, especially if the unit is under warranty.  Their technical rep. may know how others deal with this problem and with what success.  They would want to know how clean and moisture free the oil is.  Also consider whether there is enough oil to warrant special purification equipment.  Often used oil is returned to a company that specializes in recycling spent oil to keep it out of the environment and find a good use for it.  They have the equipment to do the job.  Good luck.

degausing is a feature in most moniters, you should see some buttons on your moniter just mess with them ( i cant tell you how to do it cause i dont know your model )  you will see your screen get wavey and make a sound it might look better \n\ni have never heard of moisture being a problem
