The standard filter supplied with the machines catches the largest particles. With the hybrid filter fitted, the air passing through the machine is also cleaned of fine dust, pollen, mould spores and odours before it is returned dry to the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade for \u003ca href=\"\/products\/arida-sandefjord-luftavfukter-med-torkerotor\"\u003eArida Sandefjord\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/products\/arida-oslo-luftavfukter-med-torkerotor\"\u003eArida Oslo\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHEPA stops fine particles such as dust, pollen and mould spores\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eActivated carbon removes odours from basements, storage rooms, boats and cabins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeeps the desiccant rotor and fan clean so the machine lasts longer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaced in under a minute, no tools needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy it makes sense where the dehumidifier stands\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRooms with moisture problems rarely have just one problem. A damp basement or boat usually has stale odours and mould spores in the air as well. The dehumidifier already circulates the room air many times a day. By fitting a finer filter at the intake, you use that airflow to clean the air at the same time, instead of buying and running a separate air purifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwo layers that complement each other\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHEPA\u003c\/strong\u003e is a dense fibre mat that captures particles down to very small sizes. This is the layer that deals with dust, pollen, mould spores and pet dander.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eActivated carbon\u003c\/strong\u003e has a huge internal surface area that binds gases and odour molecules. Smells from damp rooms, chemicals, paint or a boat engine stay in the carbon instead of in the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause both layers sit in the same frame, you only have one filter to keep track of.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProtects the machine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth the Sandefjord and the Oslo are desiccant dehumidifiers with a drying rotor. The rotor absorbs moisture and is regenerated with heat. Dust settling on the rotor reduces capacity and can give a faint burnt smell when it heats up. A finer filter in front of the intake keeps the rotor and fan cleaner, so the machine keeps its performance over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReplacement interval\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReplace at least once a year. If the machine runs continuously in a dusty workshop or garage, expect two or three replacements a year. Check the filter whenever you empty or move the machine anyway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReplace it when you notice one or more of these signs:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe filter surface has turned grey or dark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe airflow out of the machine is clearly weaker than before\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe odour in the room has returned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can gently vacuum the surface to extend the service life somewhat. The filter must not be washed, as water destroys the carbon layer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to replace it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitch off the machine and unplug it. Release the filter cover, put the hybrid filter in place and refit the cover. That is the whole job. Keep vacuuming the coarse filter regularly as before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003eNote: This filter fits only the Arida Sandefjord and Arida Oslo.
