humidifier question

[miss.myra]

Okay, I definitely think I need one of these because the dry winter air (yes we even get it in BC!) is starting to do a number on me.

For those of you that know, should I get a warm air or a cool air humidifier? Which would be more beneficial for my health?

if the air here bothers you i don't recommend that you leave this city...EVER!

[miss.myra]

yeah I know Tim, we're lucky here, but we still get it. Maybe I need to move somewhere like Hawaii. haha

Even when I go to Calgary in the summer the air there makes me feel sick :\

i've got a warm air humidifier sitting in my closet that i never use.....maybe we can work out a trade.....muffins?

Thanks for reminding me, i gotta whip out my guitar humidifier and get that shit working fast!...

[miss.myra]

can anyone tell me what are the benefits of warm VS cool ?

I get sick a lot in the winter and even the air being slightly drier really irritates me

Also when I get sick, I can get asthma and I have to use an inhaler and I'm usually up a lot of the night coughing and wheezing.

which would help out more?

Well, if you're sick, I believe a warm air humidifier would be best. It will definatly help with coughing and maybe the asthma too. Warm air plus warm/hot drinks are always the best to open up those breathing tubes.
Just think about it, what feels better when you are sick? A warm bath or a cold one? Unless you have a fever though...
