What is the purpose of salt in a humidifier?
Wild1577 asked:
I’ve heard that some people put salt in their humidifiers and I just bought a new vicks warm air humidifier to ease my sons coughs at night. It states on the paperwork included that salt can be added if desired. What does the salt do?
I suppose I should mention that my son has a COLD and I’m using the humidifier to help loosen it up. And in the event that there is no improvement after a week or so, we will be paying a visit to our doctor. I promise, sheesh!!!
