does white dust occurs

No - this unit adds humidity through evaporation, so there is no white dust. I have used humidifiers for at least 6 years and have found this Essick unit to be the best one for providing multiple room humidity without modifying the whole house HVAC system.

There is a little bit of white dust. My biggest problem is that the digital display malfunctioned and Essick essentially refused to do anything about it.

Am not sure what you mean by 'white dust.' If you have very hard water that leaves a calcium residue on the pad and it runs without water in it than I guess that 'white dust' could occur. Our well water has calcium and lime in it but not in abundance. I change the filter about twice during the season and start out the season with a new filter. It runs cleaner and works better by changing the filter when it seems to run but the humidity drops. Very happy with this humidifier.

I haven't see any trace of any type of dust---and after having it for 6 months, I just purchased another for a present---it does take bi-weekly cleaning, but well worth the effort

white dust is probably referring to mineral deposits, if this is the case then it's the fact that you have hard water that causes this and not the humidifier.

Not at all. That's precisely what this kind of filter does. There will be no dust. Just make sure that you change the filter at least once a month.

I am not aware of what you mean by "white dust" but I can say that by changing the filter monthly and using this cartridge the mist looks and feels very clean. After about 5 weeks my fiancee is able to detect that the filter needs cleaning at which time I also replace the cartridge.

no but there is a little dust collection bag which would pick up some of the dust.

No, the item that was stained does not get anymore dustier than the items that are not stained that are in the same room. I guess what I am saying is that it does not attract anymore dust then normal objects.

Hi, Mike,I did not experience this type of dust upon receiving the box.I received it very well preserved in its clear plastic box.TVL.

No - but it's quieter and works better than any other air filter I've had. If you don't mind a little white noise, it's fine.

No they don't. If you use too much you will see a dry white residue. If this happens just dab with a damp cloth. It only takes a small amount.

The white filter goes on fhe oufside of the carbon filter. Wbat it does is helps the carbon filter last longer by keeping dust and other airborne particles from clogging up the charcole. Be sure to wash filter when appears dirty. I hand wash mine with dawn dish soap and a cap ful of bleach to kill any poszible germs that may be caught. Hope this helps.

I have very little dust in mine. Any dust that can get in will fall out naturally over the course of time.

No white powder at all, and it is not noisy at all it does leak a little I have to put a towel under it to catch the extra water that drips off of it. Not the best but its pretty ok.

The white filter goes on the outside . You should be sucking air through the filter and exhausting that filtered air.

If you have hard water (high mineral content) they all leave a white residue--it's the result of the water evaporating leaving the calcium carbonate and other minerals in the water. The exception is units built into a HVAC system that only evaporate part of the water and wastes the remainder. I have soft water, but eventually there is a minor amount of residue present. I don't notice it on the floors or surrounding areas, but I've cleaned the top of the two units I have once in three or four years. The units are very quiet. I hope this helps.

There is a small blue light on top of the unit that is on when it is functioning. We don't even notice it so unless one is really sensitive to any light it shouldn't be a problem. The unit is very quiet and does not produce any fine dust as many units do.

When you say dust, do you mean efflorescence (white powdery substance found on concrete with moisture issues)? If yes, then yes it would. Be sure to follow the instructions to a tee.

I have used brew rite since before 2000 up in Canada at a commercial business, then started using for my own stainless coffee pot here in the States. Never noticed white particles except during the rinse process. My only thought is the period between cleanings might be too long. I suggest you not be a slave to written instructions and "rinse until clean!"

A small amount of dust does occur. I suggest finding a recipe where you add mineral oil and create a dustless sand. It also clumps together.

I don't have any issues with dust. Only if I have to add a lot of litter at one time which would happen with any color. I just wipe with a damp rag once a month and it's good.
