Honeywell HC-14 Humidifier Filter

If you invest in a humidifier to start with, you have to accept the premise that you will need to regularly change the filter and that, just like with copier manufacturers and their ink cartridges, they are going to make a bundle off of the filters over time. That said, this product performs well -I've managed 6 weeks or so between filter changes and my humidifier runs 16 hours a day. Changing filter is a breeze (and when you do change it you'll see why you NEED to change them regularly ugh). I tried cleaning old cartridges with mild solution of bleach and found that is NOT satisfactory. Good product, if expensive, and I can recommend the Humidifier it fits too. No white dust!

Hunter 25517 Summer Breeze 52-Inch 5-Blade Ceiling Fan, White with White/Bleached Oak Blades

• Whisper Wind Motor
• AVT Hanging System
• Installer's Choice 3-Position Mounting System
• 5 White/Bleached Oak Reversible Blades

I bought this fan for my living room. I wanted something that would blend into the ceiling because the other colors and lights in the living room were already "obvious". I'm using this with the white side of the blades down and a 3-speed in-wall control with no light kit and no chains hanging down from the fan.

The fan is fantastic--I've had it for about 4 months and it's completely silent, even on the high setting. It has no hint of wobble and mounts relatively close to the ceiling, unlike some other fans that have a bit more of a drop rod.

I bought 5 new ceiling fans this year, so I have something to compare this too and I love this fan, especially for the low price.

Very impressed with this fan. Installed yesterday in my bedroom. Some fans hum when powered on. This is quiet. The fan does not wobble on the highest speed. Have a Hampton Bay in a different room. It wobbles and hums.

Will only buy Hunter brand ceiling fans in the future.

Want Hunter 25517 Summer Breeze 52-Inch 5-Blade Ceiling Fan, White with White/Bleached Oak Blades Discount?

I own several Hunter fans throughout my home, in Florida, where they rarely get turned off. Several of them are 20 yrs. old or more. And they are as quiet as the day they were new. And this one is just the same. Simple installation, quiet running, moves the air, and I am sure, will be as dependable as the rest. The only way this fan could be better is if it had self cleaning blades. You are reading this Hunter, aren't you.

I bought this fan to replace a perfectly quiet, perfectly working living room ceiling fan, because I wanted a white fan to go with the white and light decor of my newly purchased condo, and not the brown of the existing fan. I went with the Hunter fan because of its excellent reputation and the amazingly high percentage of five-star reviews for this specific fan. I have ordered a lot recently through Amazon, and in every other case I have used the free super saver shipping. In this case, because I was only going to be at the condo from May 21-24 and this was for me a "last-minute" purchase, made a week before I would be there, I paid extra for the 2-3 business day shipping.

I have two complaints about this fan. The first is that I ordered it with the accompanying downrod, at the same time, and so I expected them to be shipped together. Well, first of all, items I ordered from Amazon a day later with super saver shipping, for which there is a standard 5-8 business day shipping period, not 2-3 days, shipped BEFORE these items did. I have had great experiences with super saver shipping. This was my first use of expedited shipping, and I was disappointed. Second, it had never occurred to me that the downrod might be shipped separately from the fan itself. But that's what happened. I was notified the fan would arrive by May 22 but the downrod only on May 24, the last day I would be at the condo. So I was not happy. As it happened, the downrod arrived on May 23, but it still caused me undue anxiety. And the downrod arrived via USPS, whereas the fan came via UPS. Made no sense to me.

The second complaint is about the fan itself. My electrician installed it late on May 23 and then left. He had just installed 15 Hunter fans somewhere else that day. He praised this fan as excellent and sturdy and easy to install. However, after he left, I turned the fan up to full speed, and lo and behold, it started swaying and knocking. I could only run it at half-speed quietly. My electrician returned the next day. He used all the included light balances, but it still knocked. He finally put what is called a "clothespin" balance on one of the five fan blades. That did the trick, so now the fan runs quietly with very little sway at the highest speed. But my electrician, who has installed many Hunter fans, said this was the worst swaying he had ever seen in a Hunter fan. And I find the "clothespin" mars the clean aesthetics of the blades, even though it solved the problem. Maybe I just got that rare lemon--it happens. But I have a tenant in the condo as of now, so removing and retuning the fan would be a very disruptive experience, for me and the tenant. So I have ended up disappointed that my experience was not like so many other reviewers for this fan.

HONEYWELL/ENVIRACAIRE HAC-504 Replacement Filter Pad

Is there anywhere to buy the old filters without the blue wrapping.

I have used Honeywell Humidifiers for many years and never had the smell / mold problem you do with these filters, they are downright unhealthy.

I tried to rate these zero stars they are that bad but the system would not let me.

Please go back to the old filters

Bought a bunch of these replacement filters (10, I believe) for my Honeywell 2000 series humidifier.

This "enviracaire" blue wrapping was a new thing for me. HONEYWELL/ENVIRACAIRE HAC-504 Replacement Filter Pad Never seen it before, but figured what the heck, maybe it's new technology & will improve the filter's capability.

WRONG!!

My experience has been just the opposite. 1) It doesn't last as long, working only 2-4 weeks before it's efficacy diminishes, whereas the 'older' filters with the plastic/wire mesh would easily last 3-4 months, sometimes longer depending on use. 2) Using the old filters, I would often take them out after some heavy use, clean them, and descale them before continuing to use them. Only after months of use & hard build-up would they lose their efffectiveness & need to be changed. With these "enviracaire" filters the build up isn't heavy at all, it maybe something else (see #5 below), they just lose their effectiveness very quickly.

3) I've been using humidifiers for nearly 9 years. I have a wine cellar & walk-in humidor, and for those of you who partake in those hobbies, you know how important it is to maintain proper storage conditions. So you might say that, yes, I do have experience in the use of humidifiers and environmental control. 4) I bought my last batch of (these) replacement filters from KAZ. When I began using the filters & encountering problems I contacted kaz to complain. Well, the customer service person who contacted me proceeded to tell me how it must be MY HUMIDIFIER that's not working properly as the filters work fine in hers! RIGHT!!!!! Does she use hers as extensively as I use mine?! I've been using the current humidifier(s) for three years with no prior problems to this!!!

MORE . . .

5) Now here's the worse part, IMO. WHAT'S WITH THE FILMY/MOLDY STUFF THAT BUILDS UP?! When I began using these "enviracaire" filters, I began seeing a filmy, moldy build up in my humidifier's water system. Even after I thoroughly clean the filter housing & install a new filter, at about the 2-4 week mark (when the filter's efficacy starts to diminidsh), the unit gets this filmy/moldy build-up in the filter housing compartment and in the water (but it doesn't get into the tank). Whether I use a few drops of a bacteriostatic or descaling in the water tank or not doesn't make a difference. Never seen that before, never seen it with the older filter types!! This filmy stuff may be the reason for the decreased function of the filetr, at least that's what I suspect.

So! Should you buy this filer?

You decide. Personally, I think that the manufacturer needs to know about these problems and take care of them.

As for me, I'm trying desperately to find the older style filters that had a wire-like/plastic outer mesh. Honeywell HAC504 Replacement Humidifier Filter They seemed to work just fine!!

I've noticed a bad smell when I use these filters after only a few days use. The old ones without the blue air purifier didn't smell like this. I will not use these again even if I have to buy a new humidifier when I can't find the old HAC-504 filters.

This replacement filter suddenly began to emit a really foul odor. I soaked it for ten minutes as per the instructions but when I put it back in, the odor came back and my eyes started to burn. I realized I had to throw the thing out, which means I have no humidifier while the air is now very humid. Meanwhile I had to open the windows, with the temperature about 10 degrees outside, to get rid of the pungent odor and the sensation in my eyes still not gone, several hours later. They need to re-do this filter, it is a Zero.

THF8 Lasko Humidifier Wick Filter

2 Thumbs DOWN based on 2 criteria:

Price; This filter cost $8.45 + $6.95 S&H = $15.40

An OEM filter from Lasko cost $4.95 + $1.95 = $6.90

FILTER MEDIUM

This filter is the correct size, however the filter medium is different from the OEM filter medium. This filter, when wet & not dripping held 13.5 oz of water

The Lasko OEM filter held 16.25 oz of water when wet & not dripping.

I'm assuming the filter that holds the most water is going to put out more humid moisture into the air. I believe this filter will limit & or restrict the efficiency of the Lasko Model 1128

Advertising on the box proclaims this filter as 150% More Strength.....compared to what? What does "strength" have to do with filters?

The advertising also proclaims "EXTENDED LIFE"....compared to what?

The filters we ordered are new and in sealed packages. They are exactly what we ordered and fit in our humidifier.

Filter appears to be same as what came with the humidifier. Fits like its supposed to with no issues. Can't ask for anything more.

These are generic filters, the dimensions of the filter are correct to fit into the holder but they are not as THICK. These filters do not seem to give up the water as easily as the original Lasko filter that came with my humidifier.

Stay away from these ones and buy only the original Lasko filters...

wrong filter. I don't really know what else to say its really hard and somewhat deceptive when looking at it online. I don't have the original box or the original paperwork for my humidifier but teh filter was plainly too small
