Modifying Air Filter

Has anyone modified the air filter to use different filters? Just curious if anyone has tried so it’s not costing over 200 a pop?

The filters with pore size that small (necessary to actually stop odors) all run about the same price. Anything cheaper wouldn’t do what this one needs to do. :slightly_smiling_face:

You can try using a pre-filter to extend the life of the cartridge a bit. Some folks were tossing a Honeywell prefilter on top to catch the larger particles.

There have been a few threads about this but they might be hard to find. Let me try a few searches.

Ok so I started with searching “filter rebuild” and found this thread:

You might want to try the search too, there may be more.

Then I tried “filter cartridge” and it was a ton of discussions. Definitely check that one out, it looks to have threads about alternate sources and how to clean filters, I think it’s just what you’re looking for.

Search is awesome if you know the specific terms people use here. If you don’t know them it’s terrible. Hopefully this helps.
