Swizz Style's Modern Humidifiers

Filed under: Decor

Winter weather often means dry air and the dragging out of the bulky humidifier. Luckily designers have gotten with the program, creating sleek minimalist styles that work with modern decor. Swizz Style recently launched Anton, an ultrasonic humidifier that can work in rooms up to 250 square feet and offers an optional scented oil dispenser.

Equipped with an anti-calcium cartridge and Ionic Silver CubeT, Anton won't leave the white powdery film produced by other humidifiers and will keep the water clean and pure. Control buttons are located out of sight for seamless elegance, and LED indicator lights switch from blue to red for easy readability of the water level. Anton sells for $139.99. Meet Anton's little friend Oskar after the jump.

Why Use a Humidifier in the Winter

Winter means dry indoor air, a result of lower humidity outside and blowy heating systems inside. Adding cool or warm moisture to the air by using a humidifier has many benefits: easier breathing, a diminished chance of suffering winter ills such as colds and respiratory infections, furniture and other indoor items will not dry out as much, the air will feel warmer, plants will stay fresher longer, and your skin and throat will not be as dry. The best benefit, as far as I'm concerned, is that moist air helps avoid the unpleasant "zap" you often get from static electricity.

If your home is more than a few rooms, invest in two or three humidifiers and keep them filled. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for filter maintenance and changing as well as for how often and how to clean the water reservoir so as to avoid mold and bacteria buildup.
