a little difficult to answer the definition of "at the lowest level" is difficult to define for this unit (depending on the fan setting and the desired humidity). the manufacturer's specification is 25W and that is probably meant as the maximum, but i think the consumption is normally a lot lower. i do have a wattmeter, but it is either defective or the device needs so little power that it cannot be measured. in principle, it is also just a fan with a sensor.

Yes, dieser passt gemäss unseren Infos Philips Filter :-)

No, the device does not have any network features

This article is the HU3916/10.

The logical explanation actually isn't there....however I use it in winter and didn't pay attention to this...

That was also my question. I did not find any difference. So it must have something to do with the higher demand for the white model.

With a daily running time of 10-12 hours, I changed the filter after about 4 months, but I probably could have waited a little longer. In my opinion, it is important to descale the filter weekly with citric acid, then the filter will last longer and the performance will be better.

Yes, the device does that.

I have been running the unit for over 1 year and have no problems or rattling.

Amazing! Apparently we have too much confidence in this company. But I was not only annoyed by the abstruse price difference: I have been trying to understand the instructions for use for days.

Probably you can, but I would strongly recommend not to do it! Because the oils stick to everything.

In night mode, only the moon shines... if that is still too bright, the only thing that helps is to switch it off ;-)

The unit can be placed in the bedroom without any problems, but it is not completely quiet. It would also suffice to place it in the hallway.

*If I set the time to 2h, why does the unit still switch off when the set humidity is reached?

According to the instructions, the filter should be changed every 6 months.

Yes !

It's been like this at Digitec for a while, so I've already looked around on the net. The FY3446/30 filter seems to be available from Philips itself - cost 22.00 incl. shipping. https://www.philips.ch/c-p/FY3446_30/filter-fuer-luftbefeuchter Since there is no delivery date known at Digitec, you can certainly do that :-)

Slanting is a terrific waste of energy. It's also risky, because when the outside wall cools down, mould can form on the inside. So I wouldn't recommend doing anything like tilting windows in winter. By the way, an air purifier can also filter mould spores out of the air. That would also be worth considering.

Yes, then the fan turns very quietly and the LED display of the humidity is switched off.
