This unit doesn't have any filters to bother with. It does have a small demineralization cartridge which can be purchased at the HoMedics webpage or Amazon. After the cartridge that came with the unit was used up, I didn't bother buying any. I don't notice any difference. I hope you like your HoMedics Cool Mist, I do! Another tip - every 7-10 days you'll want to clean the unit to get rid of the mold that builds up. I use a paint brush, an antibacterial spray cleaner and hot water.

Only place I found filters was at Bed, Bath and Beyond.....manufacturer of unit and replacement filters is HoMedics (unit is packaged as Sharper Image but they're no longer in business).

Sorry Arthur...I think you're right! I ordered a spare filter back in June and thought nothing of it. Then, I went to change my filter this morning and the one they sent me was wrong. My old filter has an opening on both ends and the new one does not. Plus, the part number is different. Maybe it's a new design but I'm not putting it in until I find out. Thanks for making me aware of this. I wouldn't put your's in either. Please let me know if you find something out from the company.

You can get them directly from the manufacturer, P3 International. Give them a call at 1 + (212) 741 - 7289. Filters are ten dollars each (when you factor in shipping - $7 without shipping).

Robert,you have the wrong filter-should have tabs at the top-filter order #AP1PKP-Oreck-Very difficult to find and expensive

The only site I ever found was zane.com I was on my cell so there was limited information. I have to go back myself to look for a new filter. Good luck! I hope you find it because it is a really good little machine. If not, I would go to the big box store and look in the vacuum section. Thanks!

I went back to the Amazon page where I bought the original unit; underneath it, lower on the page, I found this:Hamilton Beach 04230FS True Air Replacement Filter, 3-Pack.

Hi, go to the manufacturer's website. http://www.theperfectwater.com/Replacement-Filters/ they have filters available for the system you purchased.

I have checked and I don't believe there is a filter. I think buying a new one is the best option. At least they are pretty cheap.

Most units are self install. Just remove 1-2 screws and replace the old filter. Depends on the location of your existing filter.

Hi Janet. This unit does not have filters that need to be replaced. Thanks.

Could be a filter. I don't remember anymore. I got rid of the unit a while back after it quit on me after 6 months.

it looks like one filter but in actuality there are a few there layered. I just took them out and used the ones I thought looked the same. I found my model number on the back of the vaccuum on a silver label under where the cord wraps.

I can't find them either. Washing the filter is fine but eventually it needs to be replaced. I wouldnt' buy this product again on that basis.

I don't know yet. I'm not past the extra filters they include in the packaging yet. I'm sure they'd like us to buy the replacement filters. I can't get at my installation instructions right now, but I'm betting it might say there.
