Rated 1 out of 5 by from Poor Quality - beware. Purchased in August 2010 to replace the original after 2-3 years of service. No issues with the original unit other than looking a little crusty. Whatever they coat the replacement aluminum honeycomb with it with has been flaking off, plugging up the cold air return filter, building up on the furnace fan (causing out of balance vibrations) and to some extent building up on the heat exchangers. This is not water scale, it is flaking off the replacement Wait filter unit. Replaced unit with another filter in Jan 2011, we'll see if it does the same. Unfortunately no real alternative product. Keep an eye on your cold air return filter if using these replacement units.

Are these pads supposed to smell even when brand new? I installed a new one and they smell so bad. Hard to tell if its just the smell of the chalk like material the honeycomb is coated with or if its some mold smell

Asked by: DKLG
Hello, I did not notice any smell from the pad I purchased.

How often does the filter need to be changed?

Asked by: Hemi
Once every year but depends on your water. If there is a lot of build up then sooner if not then later 2 to 3 years. Also depends how much heating you use. So 1 to 3 years

You would have to contact the manufacturer. Unfortunately the Home Depot does not carry the filter tray. Sorry for any inconvenience.
