Honeywell HMP-12P QuickSteam Mineral Absorption Pad, 12 Pack
Great Product! If you do not have a home water softener, or the desire to buy distilled water at 2 gallons per day, you NEED these Mineral Absorption pads. I've run my unit 24/7 with the exception of cleaning and refilling - all winter. With the pads, the cleaning is easy, very little mineral deposit inside the base. With an old pad or without one at all, what a mess - thick crusty hard water deposits built up everywhere inside the base!
However, I do think somewhere in the information about this product it should be said that these are the 3 1/4" pads.
Customer Review: Doesn't really work
Summary: 3 Stars
Very little of the mineral build up adheres to the pad. It seems it must float above the heating element, because 90% of build up occurs on the heating element with another 8 percent building up on the plastic surrounding the heating element. Customer Review: You probably don't need it

I bought these for the Honeywell Humidifer I bought but the unit is so easy to clean I don't think I need-plus the directions I got said to put it under the heating coil and I didn't want to do that for fear it would heat up (???) if the unit ran dry and maybe become harmful. Customer Review: Best Mineral Pad on Market
Summary: 5 Stars
Compared prices and ability to remove minerals normally found in in tap water these filtered out most of minerals in my humidifier. FIVE stars!Customer Review: Not sure
Summary: 3 Stars
I've been trying to figure out exactly what these are doing for over two weeks and perhaps I will someday. My humidifier manual says the humidifier can run without them but I will have to clean the unit more frequently. Since the water where I live is very hard, I have to clean the unit twice a week anyway. So I've run the unit without them and I can't tell much of a difference.
Incidentally, the pads do pick up something since they get hard and chalky as they dry after being in the humidifier for just a few days. I'm not sure if they're supposed to get hard as rock but if I left the pad in for a week (the recommendation), I think they would.
It's still a mystery.
