<p>Have any of you singers (or parents thereof) bought humidifiers that you like? What would you recommend? Cool mist? Warm mist? What size? What other features? </p>
<p>S has a friend who is staying in parched Southern California who needs to know.</p>
<p>I just saw Lorelei’s take on humidifiers! What a great answer that I will relay to S for his friend.</p>
<p>Get a steam humidifier. Less problems with Bacteria. DO NOT get an ultrasonic. It puts minerals into the air which can irritate the lungs.</p>
<p>If the area (town/city) is already warm/hot, then probably a cool mist type that blows air over an evaporator pad is the best. It won’t heat up the room.</p>
<p>We have this one - cheap and works just fine. </p>
