Hamilton Beach 05910 TrueAir Cool Mist Humidifier Replacement Filter for 05518

I'm happy with the Hamilton Beach humidifier, but wish that the filters lasted a little longer.


Keep it wet   April 13, 2002

The filters last us all winter. The trick for us is to keep it wet...do not let the tray go dry. Vacuum the vents once a week. Our son bought a non-filtered humidifier that left white residue (lime, calcium) on his floor near the unit. This model is worth the [money] per year for that reason.


THE PRODUCTS WORKS BUT WITH SOME DRAW BACKS   January 28, 2002
THIS PRODUCT DOES DO THE JOB IT IS SUSPOSE TO BUT THE FILTERS DON'T LAST AS LONG AS THE BOOKLET SAYS IT SHOULD AND FOR THE PRICE IT SHOULD LAST A LOT LONGER! I ALSO THINK IT IS TO NOISY ON HI BUT IS PERFECT ON LOW.

simply to install, life is a bit short   January 10, 2002

It's pretty easy to install or replace the filter. I'd also recommend that the floor pane gets cleaned at refills to slow the dirts buildup. There were times I flipped a used one by 180 degree to have it start fresh again. After all these tricks, lifetime of one filter is about a month. It appeared to me that the filter also served to expand the wet area, and it lost that function after its mesh material degraded in time. At how much they cost a piece, I'd hope it'll last longer.
