Air Filter placement in relation to Humidifier

[JohnC]

Have 2 questions.

1)Looking to install an Aprilaire 5000. Have a humidifier and HVAC guy told me today he'd install the 5000 below (downstream) from the humidifier. Wondering what distance (if any) is the recommended minimum to install the 5000 from the humidifier. Forgot to ask him. Wondering if the humidifier would cause mold to grow on 5000 media.

2)He suggested Dynamic Air Cleaner. Anyone ever used them or have thoughts on the product? I'm still leaning 5000.

Thanks all, JC...

I've never heard of dynamic air filters. I looked at the web sight.. I'd say The April Air 5000 is much better..

You should be ok with the set up .. just as long you don't have a misting one in the return.

The April Air 5000 been rated the best 2 years in the row on comsumer reports.

I'd go with the Aprilaire over the Dynamic any day.
