In my previous article, I talked about water dripping problem caused by burning of essential oil and release of fragrance in an aircon room. Today, we will talk about why the use of humidifier sabotage your air conditioner.
Things people do to sabotage their air conditioner -part 2
Using of humidifiers to replace lost water moisture

It is common knowledge that an air-conditioned room feels dry. Nevertheless, the law of physics works in such a way that the energy produced by an air conditioner is first used to remove the water moisture before they were used to effectively cool a room. Therefore, if you attempt to replenish the water moisture in the room by putting in a humidifier, you are in fact making the air conditioner work extra hard without properly cooling the room down. The extra water produces creates more problem as more dust is flushed down the system, causing water dripping (if you have a poor water pipe infrastructure). When big commercial buildings or shopping centres have difficulty cooling the space down, they put in dehumidifier to dry the air.
Things got worst when you do it in a Singapore climate because of the high humidity level in Singapore. You may like to visit http://kevin.astiquer.com/condensation.html for more details.
Therefore, if you feel that your throat is dry or you often fall sick with the air conditioner turned on. It could be that the air is really dry and dirty. Putting in a humidifier will make it worst. Conduct a proper and thorough chemical cleaning to kill the bacteria and free up the clog (thereby improving the airflow), the air will then be clean and less dry. This is because a dirty and clog fan coil reduces the airflow, when airflow is weak, the fan coil is very cold because the coldness were not dissipitated. A very coil fan coil will cause more condensation which then makes the air really dry.
