FAQ:

Why should I use a Humidifier?

The real question is why shouldn’t you? Humidifiers add essential moisture to indoor air that air conditioners and heaters can remove.  Having the right balance of moisture in the air can relieve congestion from the common cold and soothe a dry and persistent cough, croup, dry skin and eyes, and irritated sinuses. Perfect for babies, adults, and everyone in between, a humidifier’s additional moisture thins the mucus in the sinuses, which may make it easier to breathe. And we know that when it comes down to your family’s health, you’re all about breathing easy! Even if you’re feeling great, our Crane Humidifiers are must-haves. 

Is This Suitable for Babies and Toddlers?

Yes, this unit is designed for use with your baby or toddler and the range of fun designs makes it easy to find something your little one will love. The cool mist technology makes it safe to have in the home, unlike hot steam vaporisers which can be a burns hazard.

Humidifier or Vaporiser?

A humidifier is a name in the US for what is usually called a Vaporiser (sometimes spelt as vapouriser or vaporizer) in NZ and Australia. It is important to note that Crane Adorable, Drop and TravelHumidifer/Vaporisers are Cool Mist Ultrasonic Vaporisers, not to be confused with warm mist or steam vaporisers.  We use the terms Humidifier and Vaporiser interchangeably when referring to Crane products.

Which is Better: Warm Mist or Cool Mist? 

The major difference is that a Warm Mist Humidifier is heating the water to produce steam vapour. Cool Mist Humidifiers use an Ultrasonic Nebulizer that vibrates at a very high frequency to produce an extra fine water mist. When it comes to humidifying a room, there is not much of a difference between the two types - both are equally effective. However, paediatricians and parents alike recommend Cool Mist Humidifiers for babies and children because there is no heating element, which could be a safety risk for a child. Cool Mist Humidifiers can also save money on energy costs.

Can I use Essential Oils with my Crane Ultrasonic Humidifier and Diffuser?

Yes. Unlike traditional Crane Humidifiers, this new model with 'diffuser' function has a water tank which is resistant to oil damage. 

A Humidifier Is a Common Baby Registry Item. Why Does My Baby Need One? 

Newborns are Obligate Nasal Breathers, meaning that they can only breathe in through their nose for the first 4-6 months of their lives. Their nostrils are so small that even the tiniest clog can make everything from feeding to sleeping difficult and frustrating. Perhaps more importantly, the American Academy of Pediatrics advises against using over-the-counter cold medication for children under the age of 6. For these reasons, many paediatricians and parents recommend using Cool Mist Humidifiers.

Does This Crane Humidifier Have a Light?

The mode indicator lights switch off after selection - ideal for darkened rooms

What is the Best Way to Clean My Crane Humidifier?
It’s simple. Regular cleaning will keep your humidifier running smoother, for longer. We highly recommend emptying the water tank and basin after each use and disinfecting them at least once a week with water and a few capfuls of white vinegar. Please check the manual for further instructions.

Do I Need a Filter to Run My Crane Humidifier?
Nope. We’re all about simple, clean design, so our humidifiers work perfectly without a filter. In some cases, such as when using bore water, you could notice fine white mineral dust collecting near your Crane. If so you can switch to distilled water to lower the dust-building mineral content. Crane Demineralization Filters will remove these excess minerals, so your air (and your home) stays clean. 

Please do not carry the water tank by the handle when it is filled with water. And do not use hot water to fill the tank.
