Essick Air 1040 Super Wick Humidifier Filter 2-pack

Product Description

The ESSICK AIR 1040 is a 2-pack of Super Wick replacement wick filters designed for AirCare humidifiers. Wick filters are the evaporative media inside a humidifier — they absorb water from the reservoir and allow a fan to push air through the saturated material, releasing moisture into the space. This filter uses Trapmax Filter Technology, which is engineered for high-capacity moisture output. It is a consumable maintenance part replaced on a seasonal or usage-based schedule by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and service-oriented homeowners maintaining whole-home or portable humidifier systems.

This filter is suited for residential and light-commercial evaporative humidifier applications where AirCare-brand units are installed. Wick filters in evaporative humidifiers must be replaced regularly to maintain rated output and prevent mineral buildup from reducing airflow. The 2-pack format supports back-to-back seasonal replacements or stocking a spare. Consult the AirCare cross-reference guide to confirm fitment for your specific humidifier model before installation.

Installation Notes

Wick filter replacement requires no special tools and is typically performed by the equipment owner or a service technician during seasonal maintenance.

Dispose of the used wick filter and seat the new filter according to the humidifier manufacturer instructions to ensure proper contact with the water tray and adequate airflow.
