Global Air Humidifier Market is Expected to Reach $3,811 Million by 2025

According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled,"Global Air Humidifier Market by Type, Distribution Channel, and Region: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2018 - 2025,"The global air humidifier market size was valued at $2,635 million in 2017 and is projected to reach $3,811 million by 2025, registering a CAGR of 4.7% from 2018 to 2025. Air humidifier helps increase the level of humidity in the air of a single room or building. Usually residential humidifiers are used for the humidification of the single room and whole-house or furnace humidifiers are connected to a home's HVAC system for the humidification of the entire house.

The residential segment is anticipated to witness substantial growth owing to increase in need to maintain indoor air humidity in winter season. In addition, rise in awareness about ill effects of dry air such as dry skin, sinus congestion, dry throat, nose irritation, dry cough, bloody noses, and others, is expected to drive the air humidifier market growth.

Increase in health awareness is the key driver for the air humidifier market growth. Moreover, change in lifestyle, and rapid growth in the commercial and residential construction sector, and government standards and regulations to maintain humidity are the other factors supplementing the growth of the global air humidifier market. In addition, adoption of new technology by the consumers and awareness of static electricity issue among all the industries are expected to open new avenues for the air humidifier market players in the future. However, regular maintenance of internal parts of the air humidifier and awareness about the side effects of white dust that is produced after the evaporation of minerals present in water are expected to hamper the growth of the global air humidifier market.

The report segments the air humidifier market based on type, application, and region. Based on type, the air humidifier market is segmented into vaporizers, impeller humidifier, ultrasonic humidifier, and wick/evaporative systems. Based on application, the air humidifier market is classified into commercial, industrial, and residential.
