Common Questions
How often should I replace my Aprilaire distribution tray?
While the Aprilaire 4218 Distribution Tray is built for longevity, it should be inspected annually. If you notice heavy mineral deposits, cracks, or uneven water flow that cleaning cannot resolve, a replacement is necessary for optimal humidification performance.
Will this tray fit an Aprilaire 600 or 700 series humidifier?
No, this specific humidifier component is sized specifically for the Aprilaire 500 series. Using the incorrect tray can lead to improper water drainage or reduced moisture output in your home.
Can I clean the 4218 distribution tray instead of replacing it?
Light scale can often be removed with a white vinegar solution; however, if the plastic has become brittle or the distribution notches are permanently clogged, replacing the unit is the best HVAC maintenance practice.
