Is any kind of filter required with this humidifier?

No, no filter is required. However, mine came broken... I do not recommend.

No filter is required -- just fill up a bottle of water and attach it to the humidifier. I have used it three times so far and it seems to really help my hotel room stays.

no filter is required since you're using bottled water - no messy buildup to deal with!

There is no filter. The manual says "use common tap water or distilled water or bottled water for water source."In the maintenance section it says that the transducer needs to be cleaned (with the included brush) when visible residue collects on it. And that the transducer has a lifespan of around 5,000 hours under normal use conditions. Using distilled water is going to reduce the amount of buildup you get on the machine, and may extend its life, but it says it's designed to "prevent corrosion and scaling."

I don't use a filter with mine.... I don't think it needs one. One peeve is that it doesn't fit all water bottles. Mostly your cheap generic nestle type bottles. Dasani and Smart don't fit

Yes this humidifier needs water to work. Also you may add 1 drop of oil per fill. And replace the filter every 2-3 months with a FILTRWIX sold in amazon

Very simple. Remove the used filter by sliding it off and slip the new one on. If I am going to use the humidifier immediately, I usually soak the new filter in water before putting it on. That way, the humidifier is ready to go. Be sure to fill the water reservoir with fresh clean water. If your water is particularly hard, you might want to add a softening solution, such as "Golden Solution Water treatment". This is available at Amazon.com.

It doesn't really need any filters. It's just an inflatable pad with tubes connected to a compressor. It's cheap enough that you can just buy a new one should your compressor fail.

No filter. I did not like this unit since it only lasted me one season then would not work. I replaced it with a sunbeam SWM6002 which has lasted me much longer and I am happier with its operation.

No filter needed. Regular plug but you could get a car converter for the car. It does get things wet, I put the humidifier on a table and put a towel underneath it. Towel is damp but not sopping wet in the morning, but honestly for the price and the fact that my sinuses are no longer extremely dry, that's good enough for me.

Yes, the two filters that are needed to run the humidifier are included with the unit. There are instructions in the manual as to how to clean the filters and get a little more use out of them.

No filter. We use it for a single Betta fish, so it's not an issue. Needs to be cleaned about every month.

Does not require filters, although we had to return ours, because water level in heating unit was not right.

No filters, but will require cleaning from time to time. I want to also stress that this a a small unit and is only good for one small room.

the HC26A1008 is only a filter, it DOES NOT include a frame or well. You should consult with a local appliance parts store to get the proper part number, or if you can get a diagram of your humidifier, the part numbers should be on a schematic.

There is no filter, which is nice. It comes with a little brush, so every Friday I rinse it out a couple of times and use the brush on mineral deposits that are there (it doesn't get all of them off, but that doesn't seem to be a problem, as it's not much), and wipe it dry with a paper towel. It is important not to let it sit for more than a day with water in it while it's not running to avoid mold. The instructions say to use only water to clean, use a soft cloth on the inside and the brush on the nebulizer piece.

Don't know - have not used this humidifier without filter. Old humidifier had no filter; put out much "white dust", so switched to humidifier with filter and it significantly reduced this problem. Currently use 2 Crane tear-drop humidifiers in 800+ square foot apartment and have no problem keeping humidity at comfortable level.

No - the humidifier does not take filters, and the tank is mold and mildew resistant. I've been using the older model for a year, and haven't had any trouble with bacteria/mold.
