A04-1725-051 White Rogers Humidifier Replacement Evaporator Pad

I ordered the White Rogers Humidifier Replacement Evaporator Pad, two in fact. I was a bit disappointed to find out when they arrived that they were Skuttle Pads. I would have been happier receiving what I actually ordered. It fit, which is the only reason I gave it three stars. All in all, it works, so I can't complain, but it's frustrating to order one product to get another. I have no idea if this is the same quality or not, but I was trying to get the right pad for my humidifier, which is a White Rogers. From what I can tell, even though I paid the White Rogers price, the Skuttle was cheaper. :(

Soleus Air PH3-12R-03, Portable Air Conditioner/Heater/Dehumidifier/Fan, 12,000 BTUs

Despite all the negative reviews of this unit on Amazon.com, I found several other positive reviews elsewhere on the internet, and so I decided to give it a try. I'll admit I was skeptical as to how this unit would perform, especially since it seemed to be much less expensive than other 12,000 BTU units AND it included heat pump functionality. That being said, I am quite pleased with its performance so far.

After the terrible process of having to return a damaged portable AC unit of another brand just a week earlier, I was relieved to see when this one arrived at my door in rather robust packaging. Lifting it out of its "easy open" outer box and inner cardboard crate, I was able to observe its features in person for the first time. The multi-color display is a nice touch; the bright VFD display provides simple animations of the unit's current function, as well as a basic clock (used for setting the on/off timer), and the current temperature setting. The remote control sits in a holster on the back of the unit. I found the remote to be a bit bland, with all the buttons but the power button the same size and no distinction of the most frequently used buttons (i.e. temperature, mode) from the less frequently used extras (i.e. sleep mode, Celsius/Fahrenheit setting). The use of the remote is limited anyways since the display on the unit sits facing upward, preventing you from seeing what you are doing unless you are hovering above it.

Installation is pretty straightforward. The user's manual includes several photographs of the installation process, which doesn't differ much from any single-hose portable AC on the market. You simply screw the hose into the adapters and attach the adapters onto the back of the unit and onto the adjustable panel which you close in your window.

So now the important part: how it works. I found the unit to perform quite well. The AC function is plenty cool, and with three fan settings, you can adjust the level of output (and noise) to the current conditions. The heat pump also works well, and I was impressed with the fact that the unit waits to start blowing air into the room until the heat pump has begun generating warm air. That way, on a cold winter's day you won't get a rush of cold air in your face while the unit starts up. After your set temperature is reached, the unit shuts down completely (including the fan). Perhaps handy for some people is an auto mode which automatically heats if the temperature is below 68°F, dehumidifies if the temperature is between 68°F and 80°F, and cools if over 80°F. There also is an oscillation feature which helps circulate the air into the room.

As others have said, this AC unit is not super quiet. While in fan-only mode, the noise is minimal, but while heating, cooling, or dehumidifying, the exhaust fan in the back of the unit adds a considerable amount more. While nobody will be fooled into thinking a jet is landing, some may find it difficult to sleep with the unit in the room if it is doing anything but circulating air.

Just another quick note about draining the water bucket... be prepared to empty it no less often than most air conditioning units, regardless of what the manufacturer claims it can evaporate through the hose. I also agree with others who have said that the drainage plug is really close to the ground, so you may want to place it on a hard surface or elevate it slightly to assist in the drainage process. You do get a short hose and drip pan in the box to help you empty the moisture into a larger pan, but you may want to keep a towel handy as well.

Overall, this air conditioner/heat pump unit is a economical choice if you need all-season comfort in an area of your home. Various room-size estimations abound, some even rating this unit up to 500 sq. ft. My suggestion is that you use this unit for no more than a single large room, as you will probably see much worse performance if you try to heat or cool an entire floor with it. But for supplemental heating or cooling, you really cannot go wrong with the Soleus Air PH3-12R-03.

I had this AC unit for less than 1 months and it now SCREAMS! due to a bad pump. The manufacturer said they would "look at it" but I had to pay the shipping cost to ship to them in CA. Not worth the cost of the shipping, Total waste of money. NEVER buy from Soleus! Crap manufacturing, cheap plastic parts. poor warranty service. $400 just thrown away for something that only work for 2 months at best! I'd give zero stars if I could! DO NOT BUY, you have been warned!!!!!!

I just bought this 3 weeks ago. After numerous window units I thought I would try a portable unit so I could direct the air where I wanted it. First of all this unit was difficult to install. The directions were terrible. I have had a lot less problem with my previous window units. 12,000 BTU's should cool my entire living/dining room. It works okay if you are directly in front of it, but 8-10 feet away just so so. It is as loud as any window unit I have had. It does not cool down to lowest temp so compressor is always on. After running it quite a bit for three days I just had to drain the condensation holding tank which was an experience in and of itself! The plug is on the bottom about a half inch from the floor. It is below the hose so you have to remove that. When you remove the cap, there is no type of plug, so the water immediately begins pouring into the pitiful plastic drainage tray that is provided that holds about 1/2 cup at the most. With a 1.5 liter tank to drain you need to also have a bucket or a bowl and plenty of towels as I found it impossible to stop the flow trying to empty the tray of water into the bucket. Long story short, don't waste your money. Way to expensive for the hassle. I'm going to go have a beer and make up with my dogs who are quivering outside after hearing my yelling of obscenities during the drainage process.

Got this unit today and for some reason the unit itself was covered in grease, something like a motor oil.

Anyway, set it up and powered on, after 2 hr running, the unit was blow AIR only even on COLD mode.

Called Amazon to get unit return and they told me I will have to pay $60 $80 return shipping charge for defective unit.

I will never buy and electric unit from Amazon again. I never have any problem to get full refund from other online retailer.

We purchased this product in February, hoping to use it as a heater in the winter and AC for the summer. However, the heat could never come on even when the temperature was set at 80 degree. We contacted the dealer and the manufacture for technical support, it simply would not work. The manufacture agreed to take this unit back and sent us another one. But the new one they sent us had the same problem. We experienced lengthy email, phone conversations back and forth, they just could not make their "heater" to generate any heat. They promised to send us another one, but we decided to return this product. The end story is that we were charged for both way shipping twice for the two defective products. Thus, I strongly suggest stay away from this product, also stay away from this dealer and this manufacture!!!

I have tried several different ones of these, i am an essential oil junkie. But this one should have been by far the best one which fits the bill perfectly. it's smaller than i thought,but it works. Looks nice too.The lights on it have several settings and the mist has a couple settings as well.It works quickly when turned on and it is adjustable in the amount of mist and if you want lights or you do not want lights. I usually put anywhere from 2-3 drops of essential oils and you can smell it throughout our entire bedroom. I'm hooked and loving this product! Most important of all, it has 2 new functions which are what i have been looking for all the time. With a 500ML Super big volume, You wont need to put water into it again and again any more. The Time on it has several settings, You can make a choice depends on your needs. But So beautiful and quality goods is with a very poor package box. Overall great for the price I'm happy.

Honeywell® Replacement Activated Carbon Pre-Filter for Enviracaire Air Cleaners

• Sold Indivdually as 1 Each
• Dimensions 8.40" H x 8.27" W x 2.76" D

At the time of ordering, the picture showed a Honeywell filter. Manufacturer was listed as Honeywell. Description indicated Honeywell. Title said Honeywell. The item that was actually shipped was a generic store brand not Honeywell. Highly misleading! This is straight from the product page: "Product Specifications Brand Name: Honeywell"

That does not appear to indicate "US PreFilter® Brand."

The filter LOOKS OK, but looks can be deceiving. When I pulled off the velcro tabs, to cut it down to size, some of the filter mesh came off with the tab. I cut that part of the filter off. I have bad allergies, and I so I need a good filter. I am willing to pay the Honeywell premium to get the known, good Honeywell quality. Perhaps this is as good, but I can't really tell. Regardless, all things on the page indicated that this was a HONEYWELL filter, not a generic house brand! If I had wanted a generic house brand, I could have ordered a cheaper one. There are plenty to choose from.

This isn't a case of not reading the product description, or being careless. I am fully aware of the generic house brands, and was very careful to read all of the page, multiple times, before ordering. This is deceptive advertising, in my opinion.

I am going to attempt to upload a scan of the very small slip of paper that accompanied the filter. The filter was not in a box (despite their picture), it was simply wrapped in thin plastic. Not shrink-wrap, just thin plastic.

Initially I received the part for my Enviracaire filter (1050x), which is #1050x series. However it did not fit the circumference of the HEPA filter. Kitty Hawk enterprise (the seller) was kind enough to send me a replacement, that did fit. The box that contained the filter that fit, was smaller(although it has the same part #). I suspect a packaging error of some kind. I rated the seller (fair), because of the problems that I had of not being able to use the air purifier, however in retrospect I think that there was no error on the sellers part, since I know of no way to change my rating, I like to change his service as excellent.

501 Aprilaire and Space-Gard Replacement Filter (2 Pack)

Replacement of Aprilaire 501 Spacegard 5000 Air Cleaner Filter Media

The Air Cleaner Replacement Element I ordered from Amazon was original equipment and I was able to install it myself in less than 30 minuites. I had to order two elements because of boxing and transportion problems but no big deal as I now have one media in reserve.

I admit I had done it before and had some trouble because I tried to install it without reading the instructions are on the box. They must be followed very very carefully. You must have very good lighting because the instructions on box are dim and the instructions on black plastic of Air Cleaner itself are difficult to see. Two things to watch out for: Step 4 removing pleat spacers. They snap into holes and do not twist as instructions say. Merely apply pressure upward and pull them out of snap-in holes. Second problem area is Step 8 where you have to unsnap the edges which hold the element. Aprilaire has a special Figure 4 drawing for this and you should look at it very carefully because it is critical. If you follow the instructions carefully you will have no problem installing the media. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL WITHOUT READING THE INSTRUCTIONS. The company that would normally install the element in my home charges $50 just to come to home plus $75 per hour for installation charge and full retail price for the replacement element. It is definately a lot cheaper and easier ordering the element from Amazon and doing the job yourself. It was also nice to have the media delivered to my doorstep rather than drive to the distributer in rush hour traffic and pay full retail price.

If you do the same remember to "read the instructions carefully" before attempting the replacement. If you try to replace the element without reading the instructions you will have trouble -I guarantee it.

I've been buying the 501 filter for years and have noticed a very consistent defect in the product the area along the pleat will often times have a slit varying in degree of length. It is often difficult to see this so I would encourage you to spread apart the length of each fold/pleat and look for daylight on the other side (see customer pic)....you'll be surprised by what you see. There are 2 sides to the filter the front side of the pleat where the air enters which is a completely white material, and the backside of the pleat which has a black strip along each pleat inspect both sides of the filter pleats.

On the conservative side I'll say that 8 out of 10 filters I've purchased from various sellers have been defective to some degree, some worse than others. This makes me wonder how closely the HVAC techs who install these products are inspecting the filters or if it's even considered...

Please keep in mind this is not a petty issue/review any opening in your furnace filter completely defeats the purpose of this filtration system, causes dust to collect in your hvac unit and ultimately spreads dirty/unfiltered air throughout your home... I've resorted to spending double the money to buy locally and inspect them in store to avoid the hassle of returns....the last 2 I purchased from this company were defective the company was very compliant in issuing two replacements, paying for return shipping etc...for that I give them credit and would recommend them as a seller. The Aprilaire 5000 came highly recommended however in this case the unit is only as good as its filter. Happy 2012!:)

Essick Air 696-400 Variable Speed Whole House Humidifier

The good news is, it humidifies. That's what I bought it for and that's what it does. The level of humidity is adjustable, allowing the unit to automatically cycle on and off as needed. And yes, you can adjust the fan speed, but getting it anywhere near the upper range makes it sound like a B29 taking off. IT'S LOUD! I leave it on med-low and it's not bad at all.

It has two plastic 2.6 gallon water bottles and at the med-low fan speed I use, I go through about 1 bottle per day. It keeps the rooms close to it quite comfortable, but rooms farther away don't get much. Your mileage will vary depending on humidifier location, floor plan, and normal air circulation.

As far as being built "sturdy" (as one reviewer pointed out), I have to disagree. The entire housing is made of plastic. Without the water bottles in it, it's so light that on a hard floor it easily rolls away with the lightest bump. Unless you are on carpet, I recommend NOT installing the castors that come with it. The weakest part of the whole unit is the stupid lid. It's constantly falling off it's hinges when I'm replacing the water bottles. It's just poorly designed.

I highly recommend buying the optional "air cleaner filter" (model #1051) that fits on the back. It helps clear your house of dust and pollen and also makes your internal wick last longer. For allergy sufferers, this is an absolute MUST.

Speaking of making wicks last longer, it wasn't until I read the owner's manual that I found out soft water is NOT recommended as it's supposedly not good for the wick. Oh well. The only NON-softened water I have is my outdoor hose and there's NO WAY I'm going out there every morning in the snow to fill my humidifier bottles!

All in all, I give it a 5 in performance, 4 in construction, and a 2 in convenience. (Hey, refilling and lugging 22 lbs of water every morning gets old!) Since performance is really what we want out of it, it gets an overall score of 4 stars from me.

BTW, use about 1/2 as much of the anti-bacterial additive as the bottle recommends and it does just fine.

Cheers!

ON the plus side the unit is capable of putting a lot of moisture into the air. In the first 24 hours of running it put almost 15 gallons out.

The negatives stack up fast mostly due to poor finish quality.

1) The stain on the top cover has drip marks on it and portions of it look like a chemical was spilled on it removing its luster.

2) The back of the unit is not stained but is white and in the directions its says to leave the unit 4" from any wall which means you do see the back of the unit. The hinges on the back which hold the cover in place and stick up were not painted and they are clearly visible.

3) The unit is made of plastic which is to be expected. However the panels of the unit are so thin that they were all warped. The top is ill fitting at best and the front panel has a clear bow to it.

4) Its loud on anything more then the lowest settings you cannot carry on a conversation on the telephone in the same room with it.

To sum up: It looks like junk but humidifies well.

I'm off to go find a place to hide this from sight. Wish it was as pretty as the picture.

The product arrived damaged, not from shipping damage, but from packing at the factory. Too damaged to use. Dealer said they didn't want it back. It's a good thing, because it was replaced by a unit that wouldn't run. I took the fan unit (which wan't damaged) out of the damaged unit and put it in the second unit and it runs, but only at a low fan speed. Anything higher causes too much vibration noise. Also, both units we received were poorly finished, with the base being several shades lighter than the cover, which matches the picture on the box. It looks like they only gave the bottom one coat of stain. Thanks to the dealer who refunded our money. My email with complaints directly to the manufacturer got no response.

I received this a couple days ago and so far so good. The humidity has gone from 40 to 50% in our house and it is much more comfortable. We do have a humidifier built into our furnace, but the high-efficiency furnaces just aren't on long enough to put out much water.

One caveat on this unit design with the angled corners the right and left bottles are not interchangeable. With a rectangular type unit, when the right bottle empties you can switch the full left one to the right, fill the empty bottle and put it in the left. This way you were constantly cycling through fresh water fills while only needing to refill one bottle at a time. With this angle corner design unit, you really need to allow both bottles to empty, or at least refill both when you do refill in order to ensure fresh water is always feeding in. This also can cause waste of any antibacterial solution being used.

Other than that, works great and I would recommend.

Vicks 1.0 Gallon Cool Mist Humidifier

I originally purchased this unit for my child's room 2 years ago -worked fine. There was no soaked carpet, no leaks, no fires, and no problems finding filters. I even liked the level of sound it would get loud gradually. My child (now 2 yrs old) loved the sound so much we had to find a sound machine to duplicate it.

We purchased another unit for our second child's room. Strangely, this unit worked differently than the first. The second one leaked (very litte nothing a hand towel under the unit couldn't fix) and was MUCH louder than the first. I also found that I needed to refill this unit more often than I did the first.

I didn't see too much of a problem with the difference, just thought it was worth mentioning...

I started getting sick, and for the first time since grade school had a bloody nose. That coupled with getting dry mouthed and dry skin and chapped lips every morning made me consider a humidifer.

When I went to the store I wanted a cool mist one, as cool mist would be nice in my room that is hot and dry during the winter. I expecte a misting machine, this thing doesnt mist, but I'm happy it doesn't after reading all the review of people with soggy carpets because of their misters...

Since having this I haven't felt as dry in the morning which is nice, I breathe easier and started feeling better. It a little louder than some but if you dont like the noise, turn down the speed to lower at night, I personally like some background noise and keep it on high.

The water last for a long time in these ones that use these wicks. There is only one downfall, mine is about a month old and the filter is getting pretty nasty already, although I admit my room is a dusty place and I've been using tap water. Apparently if you use those cheap 1 gallon Distilled waters the filter wont get all dirty or smelly as easily, as distilled water is pure, and tap water well....no matter what you think isn't ;).

PRO: Humidifies room with few refills and doesn't soak room.

CONS: The filter gets moldy/dirty pretty quick.

Hopefully this is usefull, I'm happy with it and I'm sure you'd be.

This humidifier is cheaper than most, especially if you buy something else from the same manufacturer (the $10 off $30 coupon helps out).

It only has two speeds, low and high. HIgh is somewhat noisy, but what you would expect. However low is whisper quiet, you can't even really tell it's on at all. I have a somewhat large room 17x14 or so, and it easily keeps it humid in here (I have a clock that has humidity on it, and can see the difference). As far as replacement filters, it appears as those are reasonable as well.

It doesn't have any real features, but it works and it has worked well for me so far with no complains. Quiet, cheap, and humidifes, it's win-win.

When I purchased this humidifier and set it up, I expected after a couple of hours to walk into my son's room and be able to noticably tell that the humidifier was on. I couldn't tell at all. The room felt just as it did a few hours earlier. With those old humidifiers that I grew up on, I was used to being able to see the humidified air coming out, and to have the room feeling almost muggy. I guess that's what I expected.

At first, I was a little bothered that I couldn't physically tell it was on and working. But, after running it for 3 days in a row now, my sons stuffy nose and cough have remarkably subsided, there's no moisture buildup anywhere in the room, and my son is sleeping better.

So, although you don't see or feel this humidifier working, it seems to have done really well in alleviating my sons cold symptoms. I am definitely becoming a fan of the evaporative technology this humidifier uses in controlling condensation build-up.

Bottom Line: If you buy this humidifier, be patient with it. Don't assume it's not working. You have to just watch for it to alleviate symptoms. You will NOT feel or see this thing working, but it has done wonders for my son.
