*humiditer We liked it **Fastly.Cool** so much in the basement, we bought a second one for the main level. The amount of moisture it pulls out of the air is astonishing.*
As a woman I refer to this video every time I change my filter thank u for such detailed and well shot step by step instructions.
Best step by step video by far especially with the replacement of the filter spacers. Thanks.
Woohoo it's 106 today and this video solved my low airflow problem
You did a great job teaching me how to change filter. I was left with 2 metal clips and was unsure where they went. My friend had pulled filter box out of unit which is in the attic and brought it downstairs. An A/C had installed it and I never had a look at it before. I purchased at a wholesale A/C store. I called ahead because their website said they only sold to trade. We wanted it right away because my A/C wouldn't work without it. They said they would match Amazon's price and sell to me. Cleaning it outside I was able to clean it superbly. Thanks again!
Thank you. I decided it was time to change my filter as it has been in since Nov 11,2016. Surprisingly, the filter was perfectly clean. While watching your video you mentioned "tangs". Uh huh I found two of them sitting on top of the unit. Hoping this will fix the problem
Great video and reminder of how to change the filter. It actually takes me over and hour. After I vacuum, I carefully wipe over the wires (do one side/flip and do the other side) with a damp paper towel and a lot more dirt comes off. I also wipe over the screen with a damp cloth and let it dry before I put it back on. I like our Aprilaire 5000, but I wish they had designed an easier way to change/clean the filter and box. A couple of the snap areas of the separator combs have broken and they are unbelievably expensive to replace. Cleaning/changing the filter/box is really a pain.
Thanks for the easy walk-through, you took the mystery out of it. It was a 15 to 20 minute job for my son and I to complete.
Thanks for the video, well done and takes all the guess work out of the maintenance of the unit.
Thank you for sharing this informative video. An attic installation and this model makes it more difficult.
Thank you so much for this video. I sincerely appreciate the detailed explanation. Very thorough and easy to understand. Thank you!
Thanks for this video! I feel confident I will be able to change the filter after watching. If I get confused, I can go back and watch again!
Thank you for the detailed walkthrough. I would have never figured it out. Excellent
That is a awesome filter
Thank you! Extremely well done and helpful!
Thanks for the demo! You just saved me some $$.
Great video - thank you!
Really helpful video - thanks!
Really helpful vid, thanks!
Great video.
Good video. Thanks man.
damn that's a process I will stick with my slide-in Aprilaire 1610 box .. simple and 2 minute change
Excellent job presenting this info. I note that a couple of my charging wires are not connected. Not sure how that can be remedied.
what kind of air handler/furnace is that connected to?
Well done
What size is the duct attached to the input side of the filter, 25x10 or 24x10?
What do you think the advantage of the electronic function of this unit compared to just the large media pac filter by Aprilaire? Does it make 'cracking' noises when some large particles hit the wires? My old Honeywell electronic air cleaner did that. Interestingly, the Honeywell filter was all metal and could be washed in a dish washing machine. Yes, absolutely true, that was the maintenance on them back in the mid to late 1980s.
They updated the 2400 to a better media. Will the 2400 series filter work with the 5000 or is there a different part number? I do not like the pleated filters at all.
How do you replace the ionizing/charging wires? We have a few broken. Does it require a soldering iron, or simply hook the ends on/use a screwdriver? Thx.
thanks, i appreciate the video =D
If the green light is off, does it need replacing?
I thought you only fixed Fords. Guess I was wrong. Another nice video.
What happens if like 2 of my 9 charging wires are disconnected at one end? Thanks for video unit back up and running with one worry about the disconnected charging wires 😟
I found 2 of the charging wires were broken, what do I need to do?
Anyone know how often should I replace the filter?
Watching in 2020. Is the unit still working?
I purchased an AprilAire 5000 that came with the used furnace. It does not have the control panel you mentioned. The previous owner said he never had one. Is this control panel necessary? Can I just wire it to turn on when the furnace fan runs? Thanks for any response.,
I think it's a newer version. Our 5000 was installed about 12 years ago, no panel.
The control panel is NOT necessary. The 5000 can be wired without the panel.
15:00 I dont have a metal bar across mine, on either side...
Thanks for the informative video. Now I can safely change out my filter without calling my High Priced AC person.
Thanks for the video. If you are still in that house, do yourself a favor and run the water heater pressure release pipe into the drain on the floor where that PVC pipe is, just in case it releases, the water will go to the drain and not all over your basement floor.
Out of curiosity, why are you recommending this?
@@ericku4466 If the pressure relief valve opens, it will shoot the water into the drain and not your home. Below is some information of the pressure relief valve.

Quick?
I hate this freaking thing. I have to change mine in the attic and there is little room and almost no place to stay. It is dusty and spacing combs is long and arduous. I can'i believe engineers cant come up with something easier to replace a filter. It's a freaking nightmare@!
Dont buy this over kill waste of money, buy a aprilaire 2200 good for around a year depends how you live.
+Billy Smith 5000 is a waste of money and gave me Ozone headaches. I unplugged it and bought the Merv 16 filter by health climate" Lennox MERV 16 Air Cleaner Filter Media for PMAC-12C - X5425" on Ebay for $85 free shipping. Gives better filtering and no ozone. Filter drops right in the 5000 box. Just gotta remember to unplug the stupid 5000. The X5425 is a Merv 16 and the 5000 filter is rated at Merv 10.
Agreed. But this filter is great for homes with hardwood flooring.
@@waynejohnson9119 curious how you did this. Our Aprilaire system died. Do you drop the Lennox filter into the box that slides into the cabinet or just put the Lennox filter directly into the cabinet?
