Frequently asked
What filter/pad fits a Kenmore Essick MoistAir MA-12001 humidifier?
The Kenmore Essick MoistAir MA-12001 uses the 14906 (Replacement Filter Wick for Kenmore/Essick MoistAIR Portable Humidifiers- 14906 / MAF-1), a wicking filter.
Is the 14906 a wick or a furnace pad?
The 14906 is a portable-humidifier wicking filter, not a furnace water panel.
How often should I replace the 14906?
We don't have a manufacturer-listed replacement interval for the 14906 - a common default is once per humidifying season, or sooner if it's visibly scaled or discolored.
Should I buy the OEM filter or an aftermarket one?
The genuine Kenmore 14906 is the safe, exact-fit choice. A cheaper aftermarket wick or pad can fit the same slot too - check reviews for real-world fit and how well it wicks water before buying, since humidifier filters aren't independently certified the way NSF-listed water filters are.
