What to do about night sweats? 5 tips for a cooler night's sleep

It's the heart of summer: hot days, balmy evenings ... and sometimes sleepless nights due to excessive sweating in bed. Night sweats are more common than you think. Maybe you wake up clammy on a regular basis, with a wet pillow and comforter. This not only feels uncomfortable, but can significantly disrupt your sleep. Fortunately, with a few smart adjustments, you can make your bedroom cooler and enjoy a fresh, undisturbed night.

Wondering why night sweats occur and what you can do about it? We explain and share five practical tips for a better night's sleep.

What is night sweats anyway?

Night sweats mean that you sweat excessively at night, often for no apparent reason. It can have many causes: from a hot bedroom to hormonal fluctuations, stress or certain medications. And, of course, the season plays a role: in summer, your body is more likely to have trouble getting rid of its heat.

Why do you get night sweats?

Your body regulates your temperature on its own, including at night. But if it is too warm in your bedroom or you use thick bedding, that heat cannot escape. And especially in summer, when it's sweltering even in the evening, you notice this extra.

Good news: you don't have to have sleepless nights anymore. The following tips will keep your head (and your sheets) cool!

1. Keep your bedroom cool

A fresh bedroom is key! Keep the curtains closed during the day so the sun doesn't have a chance to warm up your room, and open the windows at times when it's cooler outside. This will keep the heat out and still allow the fresh air to flow nicely through your room. Around 16 to 18 degrees is when you sleep best.

2. Choose breathable materials

What you put on your bed and what you put on really makes a world of difference. Sleep under cotton or linen sheets and wear airy nightwear made of natural fabrics. This ventilates better and absorbs moisture, keeping you nice and cool. No nightwear is also possible, of course... 😉

3. Avoid heat boosters before bedtime

A spicy curry, a glass of wine, just finishing that deadline ... It sounds cozy or productive, but your body actually gets warmer from that. Instead, choose something light and quiet before you go to bed.

4. Use a quiet fan with night mode

The easiest way to keep your bedroom cool? Put up a quiet fan that gently circulates the air. That way you get rid of excess heat without drafts or noise.

A model like Whisper Flex 2 Smart is ideal: whisper quiet with only 13 decibels you can barely hear it, and thanks to the night mode with dim display you sleep undisturbed without disturbing light. With up to 30 speeds and a natural wind mode, you set the airflow exactly the way you want it. You control it with your phone, voice or remote control, even from bed. Good night!

5. Leave summer out of the bedroom

Everything you bring outside in, from pollen to solar heat, makes your bedroom warmer. Leave shoes and coats out of the bedroom, brush out your pet for a while, and wash textiles like comforter covers and pillowcases regularly. That's how you keep it fresher and cleaner!

Sleep soft and cool

Night sweats are annoying. It makes you restless, tired and sometimes cranky. Fortunately, it doesn't have to stay that way. With a few smart choices, you can make your bedroom a nice, cool place to relax again. Ventilate consciously, choose light materials, avoid triggers and let a whisper-quiet fan like Whisper Flex 2 do the work. Hot nights may be part of summer, but waking up sweating really doesn't have to be!

How can I improve poor indoor air quality? Tips for a fresher spring

The sun is shining, the windows are open, and you're fully enjoying spring. But did you know that this time of year in particular puts a lot of pressure on indoor air quality? Ventilation is good, but in doing so you also let pollen, particulate matter and other invisible pollutants into your home. Not to mention allergies like hay fever are at their peak right now. Don't worry: with a few smart adjustments, you can improve the air quality in your home and breathe a sigh of relief!

Be critical with ventilation

Fresh air is important, but choose the right time. In the morning or in windless weather, the concentration of pollen is often lower. Ventilate briefly and vigorously, especially if you live on a busy road or are prone to allergies. Leave a window ajar at night if you live in a quiet neighborhood, but only if the air outside is cleaner than inside.

Address dust and mold at the source

One of the biggest culprits for poor indoor air quality? Dust accumulation and moisture. Regular vacuuming (preferably with a HEPA filter), wet wiping and airing mattresses already helps tremendously. In addition, pay attention to places with too much moisture, such as the bathroom or basement, where mold can grow unnoticed. Do you suffer from a musty smell or condensation on the windows? Then this is often a signal that the air quality is not optimal. For these types of problems, a dehumidifier such as Bora comes in handy. This is how you combat mold, condensation and stale air right at the core.

Measure = know

You don't see it. You often don't smell it. But it's there: poor indoor air quality. Think particulate matter, pollen, VOCs (volatile organic compounds), and mold spores. Want to really know what's going on in your living room or bedroom? Then use an air quality meter or hygrometer, such as Sense. This compact gadget lets you see at a glance the state of temperature and humidity in your home. Handy and stylish!

Use an air purifier for the bedroom or living room

An air purifier is perhaps the most effective way to improve indoor air quality. Especially during spring, when you suffer from hay fever, you're extra sensitive to pollen and dust particles. A smart model like the Bright 2 Smart air purifier filters up to 99.97% of all pollution from the air thanks to a three-layer filtration system(HEPA H13 + activated carbon filter). It adjusts automatically via a PM2.5 sensor and also operates whisper quietly. Also perfect as an air purifier for the bedroom.

And thanks to the Duux, you know exactly what the air quality is like and easily control Bright 2 with your smartphone or voice assistant.

Pay attention to seasonal influences

Spring brings a lot of good, but also a lot of pollen. May is a notorious month for grass pollen, which can exacerbate allergies considerably. Do you have pets? They also carry extra pollen inside. Keep shoes, coats and pets out of the bedroom and wash textiles regularly. Remember: what flies outside eventually ends up inside. Unless you take measures!

Summary: Fresh air requires smart choices

Poor indoor air quality is often an invisible problem, but with major consequences. From fatigue to allergies and stuffiness - the air you breathe plays a major role in your well-being. Fortunately, you can improve a lot with a few simple steps: ventilate consciously, keep your home clean, measure your humidity and use an air purifier like Bright 2 for extra protection.

How does a dehumidifier work? Everything you need to know for a healthy indoor environment

Moisture in the home: we all have to deal with it from time to time. Think of condensation on the windows, a musty smell in the basement, or laundry that just won't dry. In many cases, excessive humidity is the culprit. And that can cause not only discomfort, but also unhealthy situations such as mold and dust mites. Fortunately, there is a smart solution: a dehumidifier. But how exactly does a dehumidifier work? And when do you use one? We explain it to you in this blog!

What does a dehumidifier do?

A dehumidifier removes excess moisture from the air. Simply put, the unit draws in moist air, which condenses into water, and blows dry air back into the room. This reduces humidity and makes the room more comfortable and healthier. Ideal for humid places such as the basement, bathroom or laundry room.

How does a dehumidifier technically work?

Most modern dehumidifiers work with a compressor. This technology uses a refrigerant to remove moisture from the air:

1. Drawing in moist air: The fan draws the air in.

2. Condensation process: The air is cooled against cold coils of the compressor, causing moisture to condense.

3. Water collection: moisture is collected in a water tank or drained through a hose.

4. Blow out dry air: The now dry air is blown back into the room.

Many models, such as the energy-efficient dehumidifier Bora from Duux, have a built-in hygrostat. With this, you simply set the desired humidity level (for example, between 40 and 60%), after which the device automatically adjusts itself.

Wondering what that looks like in practice? Then watch this explanation video from Bora. In three minutes you can see exactly how this dehumidifier works, what functions it has, and how easy it is to operate.

When do you use a dehumidifier?

There are several situations in which a dehumidifier comes in handy:

In the basement: Basements are naturally more humid due to contact with the ground. A dehumidifier prevents mold and musty smells.
In the bathroom: No window or poor ventilation? Then you quickly suffer from condensation and mold on the walls or ceiling. A dehumidifier here keeps things fresh and dry.
In cold rooms: Because relative humidity rises at lower temperatures, the walls, windows and furniture there tend to be colder, so humidity condenses more quickly. Too much moisture in the home can cause stuffiness or allergies. With a dehumidifier, the indoor climate in the living room or bedroom remains pleasant and healthy.
In the laundry room: With a dehumidifier that has a special laundry mode , you dry your laundry faster and more energy-efficiently than with a dryer. Now that's smart drying!

How long should a dehumidifier be on?

It depends on the humidity, temperature and size of the room. In most cases, a dehumidifier works most efficiently in auto mode, where it automatically turns on and off depending on the measured humidity. Do you have a lot of moisture in your home, such as after a shower or while drying laundry? Then you can temporarily use continuous mode.Many models also offer a timer function, so you control how long the unit is on.

What is a good dehumidifier?

A good dehumidifier is quiet, energy efficient, easy to use and powerful enough for the room you are using it in. The Bora dehumidifier from Duux is a great example of this. With a maximum dehumidification capacity of 20 or 30 liters per day, a silent night mode of 36 dB, as well as control via the Duux, Bora combines functionality with comfort. Moreover, it has a carbon filter against odors and a self-cleaning function: convenient and hygienic!

Conclusion: a dehumidifier is not a luxury, but a necessity in humid rooms.

Excessive humidity in the home can lead to health problems, mold and uncomfortable conditions. Especially during cold and wet periods, such as fall and winter, excess moisture often lingers in the home. With a good dehumidifier, you can solve this effectively. Whether it's a damp basement, a hot bathroom or a laundry room where laundry just won't dry. And with smart, quiet and energy-efficient models like Bora, you can effortlessly make your home a healthier place.

5 tips against dry air at home: here's how to improve humidity

Dry air in the home can cause a variety of unpleasant symptoms, such as dry skin, stinging eyes and coughing due to irritated airways. Especially in winter, when the heating is often on, humidity can drop quickly. Fortunately, there are several ways to make the air in your home healthier and more pleasant. Here are five practical tips to reduce dry air and improve your indoor climate

1. Put trays of water on the heater

A simple way to increase humidity in the home is to place trays of water on the heater. Do you remember them, those old-fashioned water trays that used to hang on everyone's heater? They worked well back then and they still do! The water evaporates from the heat and spreads throughout the room. Want a subtle scent in your home? Then add a few drops of aromatherapy for a fresh and relaxing atmosphere.

2. Dry your laundry inside

Instead of putting your laundry in the dryer, you can dry it inside. This not only helps to increase humidity in your home, but also saves energy. Especially in winter, a rack of wet laundry can be a natural and effective way to combat dry air.

3. Put up plants that humidify the air

Plants not only look beautiful, but also help maintain humidity levels. Some plants, such as the golden palm, fern and spoon plant, are known to release moisture into the air. So you kill two birds with one stone: healthier air and a greener living environment!

4. Use a humidifier

Do you want to optimally regulate the humidity in your home and make it transparent? Then a humidifier is a smart solution. But how does a humidifier actually work and what exactly does a humidifier do? Simply put, a humidifier adds moisture to the air and helps keep the humidity in balance. There are different types of humidifiers, each with their own operation and benefits. The two most common types are the ultrasonic humidifier and the cold water evaporator.

Ultrasonic humidifier

An ultrasonic humidifier converts water into a fine, visible mist using rapid vibrations. This is done through a small metal plate that vibrates at ultrasonic frequency. The mist is then blown into the room, rapidly increasing humidity.

Cold water evaporator

A cold water evaporator works with a moist filter and a fan. The filter absorbs water, while the fan blows past the filter, releasing moisture into the air. This type of humidifier automatically adjusts to the humidity in the room, so the air never becomes too humid.

The Neo ultrasonic humidifier dispenses a fine mist that instantly helps maintain humidity levels. With a humidification capacity of 500 ml per hour and a spacious 5-liter water tank, it is ideal for larger rooms. You can easily control the humidifier via the Duux or with voice assistants such as Google Assistant and Alexa. This way you can enjoy a comfortable indoor climate without looking back or hassle!

A humidifier is also ideal for the bedroom, as too dry air in the bedroom can cause restless sleep. Complaints such as a dry throat, stuffy nose or even headaches are often a result of dry air. With a humidifier in the bedroom, you can create a healthier and more comfortable sleeping environment.

5. Keep an eye on humidity

The ideal humidity level in the home is between 40% and 60%. Air that is too dry can cause health problems, while air that is too humid can again promote mold. A hygrometer is a handy tool to measure the humidity in your home, so you can take measures in time!

These tips will help you make sure the air in your home stays healthy and comfortable. Whether you opt for simple solutions like plants and water bowls, or a powerful humidifier like Neo, a good indoor climate starts with conscious management of humidity.

5 smart tips to keep yourself warm this winter

Winter is in full swing, but fortunately this doesn't mean you have to be cold. There are plenty of ways to stay nice and warm without running the central heating on full blast. Plus, with smart choices, you can not only beat the cold but also reduce your energy costs. Here are five handy tips to get you through the cold months.

1. Put on layers for some extra warmth

A thick sweater may be nice, but multiple thin layers do much more for your warmth. Each layer holds a tiny bit of air, this acts as a kind of insulation and keeps your body temperature constant. This is much more efficient than one big sweater! Choose breathable materials like wool or fleece. This will keep you comfortable all day long!

2. Hot drinks and healthy food for inner warmth

It may sound simple, but a cup of tea or a bowl of soup can do wonders to warm you up. Spices like ginger and cinnamon in particular not only make you feel nice and warm, but also stimulate your circulation. This way, you not only feel warmer, but also more energetic. In addition, consider a good breakfast with oatmeal, for example, which will give you energy to get you through the day warm and active.

3. Keep yourself warm with exercise

Exercise is one of the fastest ways to warm up. Even a few minutes of walking around your house, some stretching, or light strength training can improve your circulation and warm you up faster. The best thing to do is to put some energy into a workout in your living room; put on a fun playlist and let your body warm itself! By staying active, you'll be able to beat the cold just fine without turning up the thermostat.

4. Prevent heat loss with proper humidity

Dry air can cause your body to cool down faster, leaving you colder than necessary. This is because low humidity accelerates the evaporation of body heat, especially in winter when heating dries out the air indoors. Maintaining humidity levels, ideally between 40 and 60%, helps your body stay at a better temperature. You can easily do this by using a humidifier, such as Neo, drying your laundry inside or leaving the door open after showering so the steam spreads through the house. This will keep you warmer, with no extra effort!

5. Opt for a mini heater

Is the cold too much for your favorite chair or workspace? A mini heater, like Zone offers the solution! These portable and compact devices quickly heat the space around you without having to heat the entire room. Plus, you can easily move a mini heater from room to room, so you always have the heat you need no matter where you are.

With these five smart tips, you can get through the winter comfortably without constantly turning up the thermostat. Whether you wear layers, drink hot drinks, or use a mini heater, there is always a way to beat the cold. Get started with these tips and make this winter a warm and cozy time!

Everything you need to know about oil stoves

With winter just around the corner, it's time to think about how to keep your home efficiently and comfortably warm. Tired of working in a cold home office or waking up in a freezing cold bedroom? Then an oil heater is just what you need!

In this blog you will discover all about oil stoves and why they are a smart investment. Read on quickly and get inspired!

What is an oil stove?

An oil heater, also called an oil radiator, is an electric heater that generates heat through an oil-filled heating element. The great thing about oil heaters? They stay warm even after you turn them off. This saves energy, which is good for the environment as well as your energy bill.

No oil refill, no hassle

This type of oil heater works without oil consumption. So you don't have to worry about refilling. The oil is permanently sealed in the heater and only ensures that heat is retained longer. No maintenance, no waste. That's smart heating!

The benefits of an oil stove:

1.Energy efficient and sustainable

Why heat your whole house when you only need to heat the room where you are? With oil heaters, you heat in a targeted and efficient way. Thanks to the oil-filled element, the heat stays for a long time, even when the heater is off. Combine that with solar panels, and you're super sustainable!

2.Noiseless heating

Unlike many other heating systems, such as fan heaters or central heating, oil heaters operate almost silently. Perfect for bedrooms or workspaces where silence is important to you. Warmth without distractions!

3.Suitable for larger spaces

Oil heaters are perfect for heating larger spaces! Thanks to their efficient heat output, they can effortlessly heat spaces from 20m² to even 40m² or more. Whether you want to get your living room nice and warm quickly or make a large workspace comfortable, an oil heater will ensure that you are never cold.

4.Increased safety with overheat protection

You can enjoy the heat with peace of mind because many modern oil heaters come with smart safety features such as overheat protection and automatic shut-off. This ensures that the heater never gets too hot, even if it is left on for long periods of time or you leave it on while you sleep. So you are always assured of extra safety in your home, which is reassuring!

What is the difference between an oil-filled heater and a traditional oil stove?

Modern oil-filled heaters differ greatly from traditional oil stoves that run on fossil fuels. Traditional oil stoves burn oil to produce heat, which is both environmentally unfriendly and leads to continuous consumption of oil. An oil-filled heater, such as Edge Oil , works very differently. This heater is filled with noncombustible, environmentally friendly mineral oil. The oil is completely sealed inside the heater and is used only as a heat conductor. This means no oil is consumed, making this heaters a sustainable and low-maintenance choice.

Why choose an electric oil heater from Duux?

Want an oil stove that really has it all? Then Edge Oil is the perfect choice. This modern oil stove combines a stylish, minimalist design with smart technology and powerful performance. With the smart control via the Duux Smart App, you can easily set the desired temperature. Thanks to the different heat settings, you customize the heater completely to your liking. The oil-filled radiator retains heat for a long time, even when the heater is turned off.

But there's more: the built-in fans make Edge Oil super efficient. In boost mode, they spread heat through the room at lightning speed, making our 2000Wheater as powerful as a 2500Wheater. Ideal if you want to heat up quickly! Edge Oil also offers additional features such as an eco mode for energy saving and a night mode for whisper quiet operation. This makes it the ideal choice for any room and situation.

Get more out of your fan this summer with these 5 tips

With summer approaching, it's time to prepare for those hot days when a little extra cooling is more than welcome. One of the most common and affordable home cooling devices is the fan. But did you know there are ways to get the most out of your fan? Here are some tips and tricks to help you beat the heat and make the most of your fan this summer!

1. Combine your fan with ice or frozen bottles

A simple trick to increase the cooling effect of your fan is to place a bowl of ice in front of the fan or hold frozen bottles of water in front of the airflow. This will additionally cool the air blown by the fan before it circulates into the room.

2. Placement of your fan

The placement of your fan can make a big difference in effectiveness. Choose a spot near an open window to pull cool air in from outside. This method is effective only if the outside temperature is lower than the inside temperature because the inlet of the fan is at the back. Alternatively, you can position the fan so that it blows warm air out of the room, preferably toward another window or doorway to remove heat.

3. Use a wet towel for an extra cool breeze

Another helpful tip is to hang a damp towel in front of the fan. When air is blown through the damp towel, the water evaporates and the air becomes cooler. This can be a quick and effective way to create a cool breeze, especially on very hot days.

4. Lower the temperature during the night

At night, outside temperatures are often cooler than during the day. Take advantage of this cooler night air by opening your windows and strategically placing your fan to draw fresh air inside. This can help lower home temperatures before the sun rises and the heat hits again.

5. Let your fan work together with your air conditioner

If you have a portable or split-unit air conditioner, you can use it in conjunction with a fan to cool the room even better. For example, set up the fan so that it spreads the cool air from the air conditioner throughout the room, evenly distributing the air and allowing you to run the air conditioner on lower settings.

Unleash the power and savings of electric heating

As the chilly winter winds start to blow, keeping your home warm and cozy becomes a top priority. Fortunately, electric heating offers an array of advantages that go beyond just warmth. By leveraging the benefits smartly, you can not only create a snug environment but also slash your energy bills. Let’s explore how to make the most of electric heating this winter while maximizing energy savings.

Energy savings

1. Heat only where you need it

One of the key advantages of electric heaters is their portability. Instead of heating the entire house, consider relocating your electric heater to the room you’re currently occupying. This targeted approach ensures you’re not wasting energy on unused spaces, leading to substantial cost savings.

2. Smart schedules for efficiency.

In the era of smart homes, harness the power of technology to optimize your heating. Utilize smartphone apps to schedule heating times based on your daily routine. This way, your electric heater only kicks in when you’re at home or in a specific room, preventing unnecessary energy consumption.

3. Solar panels for eco-friendly heating

If you’re among the environmentally conscious, pairing electric heaters with solar panels is a game-changer. Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity, providing a clean and renewable energy source for your heaters. Not only does this reduce your carbon footprint, but it also translates into cost-efficient heating.

Tips

1. Harness the power of fans

Enhance the efficiency of your electric heater by strategically placing a fan nearby. A fan helps distribute warm air throughout the room, ensuring even heating. The accelerated air movement facilitates better heat dispersion, optimizing your heater’s performance.

2. Seal the gaps

Windows and doors can be significant sources of heat loss. Keep them tightly closed to prevent warm air from escaping and cold drafts from infiltrating. This simple measure ensures that the heat generated by your electric heater stays where it’s needed the most.

3. Humidity: the secret weapon!

Surprisingly, humidity plays a crucial role in our perception of temperature. By increasing humidity levels, you can make the room feel warmer without adjusting the thermostat. For every 1°C increase in perceived temperature, you can save up to 5% on your energy bill. It’s like creating your mini indoor sauna experience!

This winter, embrace the warmth of electric heating while optimizing energy usage. Whether it’s through smart scheduling, solar-powered solutions, or strategic placement of fans, you have the tools to make your home not only cozy but also energy-efficient. Implementing these tips ensures that you stay warm without burning a hole in your pocket, making this winter a season of comfort and savings.
