5.0 out of 5 stars Works perfectly for my steam humidifier, February 6, 2011

This review is from: Aqua-Pure AP517 Drinking Water System Filter for AP510 (Misc.)

We have a Generalaire whole-house steam humidifier in our basement, which works great to maintain the humidity in our house at about the 40% level during the heating season. (Without humidification the humidity drops to 20% or less). We have city water, but before the filter was installed the humidifier would continually clog (every couple of weeks or so) and we would also need to regularly replace the cylinder (not cheap) due to the buildup of impurities. Our heating contractor suggested installing the water filter to help with these issues, and it has really worked. We now need a new cylinder only once per heating season and the humidifier is running much more reliably.

A nice feature on this cartridge is that there is a bubble on the side that you press at the time of installation, and it gives a visual indication of when 3 months and 6 months have passed, which is helpful in signaling when the cartridge should be changed again.
