will this keep white dust down

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.

I have not experienced this however, it does reduce mineral buildup within the unit.

My initial reaction would be to say no. It's really about keeping the insides of your humidifier clean and muck-free. It significantly reduced the amount of slime that accumulates in the water laden areas of the machine. It will also extend the practical use of the wick filter, but dust I is a different matter.

It does not advertise this feature, nor does it appear to do this. Its primary function is to prevent mold and bacteria. However, this company has a model that sits outside of the tank (in a designated place in some units) that is for white dust. Check out model DC-1. Also, distiller water won't create white dust if that's an option for you.

In my experience no. I haven't used it for awhile but when I had it on I never had a problem with dust.

You can put weather strips by the doors to prevent dust from coming in..it works.

I think so. One side is black (the side shown in the photo) and turns grayish whitish from dust, etc. as it filters the air that passes through it, as long as you insert the filter in the appropriate direction.

My surmise goes like this; I put the foam side against the air flow .It seems to work I guessed that the fabric side is to stop the dust from coming out of the foam. Robert Caalhoon

I would assume yes. I just keep it in all the time and bring it out when I want to use it ... Lots of dust here in Arizona :)

I'm using this humidifier for the 2nd year and I have not had any "white dust". The water in my apartment is very hard water, and their is a lot of mineral deposts that get left on the filter, so I have to change the filter more often. Maybe the filter is good enough so that you don't get "white dust"?

I suppose it will since it has a true hepa filter. I dont have a mold or mildew problem so maybe its working?

Nothing will keep the dust out except a totally sealed cab enclosure. This dust guard helps a ton and is the best one you can buy. The dust will always be there because of tires moving it everywhere.

I think it does, the filters are always full when it's time for them to be changed. I would say yes, it is effective at removing dust.

I live in Phoenix, lots of dust. I wipe it down when I'm dusting. No big deal. I would say NO to your question. Just wipe it down every now and then. :)

I think the ventilation holes are there to allow the heat to flow out. Since its underneath, I don't see how dust will build up too often.

If there is a reduction in air flow it is small. I haven't really noticed any. Just a big reduction of dust.

I believe that it will, if it looks like what you have on your vacuum cleaner now. It is white in color. Hopefully this will be of some help to you.

This picture is a bit deceptive in that regard. I use a white complementary dust ruffle. Otherwise, it is a bit short alone for my taste. Hope this helps.

I use a Festool vac and leave the bag and the extra filter in because the dust deputy does not catch everything. Doesn't really seem to impact the performance at all.
