Usage Tips for Your Himalayan Salt Lamp
To get the most out of your Himalayan salt lamp, follow these simple tips for optimal benefits and longevity:
1. Placement for Maximum Effect
✔ Near Electronic Devices – Place your lamp near computers, TVs, or Wi-Fi routers to help counteract electromagnetic radiation.
✔ In Bedrooms for Better Sleep – The soft, amber glow creates a relaxing ambiance, perfect for winding down before bed.
✔ In Workspaces or Meditation Areas – Helps create a calming and focused environment for work, study, or relaxation.
✔ By Entryways or Living Spaces – Adds a warm, welcoming touch while subtly purifying the air.
2. Caring for Your Salt Lamp
✔ Keep it On Regularly – When lit, the warmth helps prevent moisture buildup, keeping the lamp dry.
✔ Use a Soft Cloth for Cleaning – Wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust. Avoid excessive water, as salt can dissolve.
✔ Store in a Dry Place – If not in use for long periods, wrap in plastic to prevent moisture absorption.
3. Preventing Moisture Buildup ("Crying" Lamp)
Himalayan salt naturally absorbs moisture from the air. If your lamp starts to "sweat" or leak water:
✔ Keep it on for longer periods to stay warm.
✔ Avoid placing it in high-humidity areas, like near windows or bathrooms.
✔ Use a coaster or mat to protect furniture surfaces if needed.
4. Bulb & Electrical Safety
✔ Use only the recommended wattage bulb (usually 15W-25W, depending on the lamp size).
✔ Ensure the cord and plug are dry before use.
✔ If the bulb burns out, replace it with a heat-producing bulb (LED bulbs won’t generate enough warmth for the salt lamp to work effectively).
By following these tips, your Himalayan salt lamp will stay beautiful, functional, and long-lasting, enhancing your space with its natural glow and soothing presence.
