Air-O-Swiss 7144 Review
Air-O-Swiss 7144 Review by R. Gilman (USA)
Let me first say that this is a great humidifier, however it falls short of what the manufacturer states this unit can do. It states that it will humidify a room up to 650 sq ft in the optimum humidity range of 40-60%. I have a room that is under 300 sq ft, and although it has no problem reaching that range when the temperature outside is above 40 degrees, it can NOT maintain 40% humidity when the temperature drops into the 30's and below. I have spoken to customer service several times, till they handed me over to the head honcho, which he admitted that the unit can NOT maintain that level. He went on to say that my unit is working properly and the only thing he could do was swap it for another one. So of course I asked wont I have the same problem, and he replayed yes! So bottom line if you are looking for a humidifier and you have a room bigger than 250 sq ft, you might want to pass on buying this humidifier.
Air-O-Swiss 7144 Review by Vincent Fox "Vincent" (Atlanta, GA USA)
One of a very few humidifiers with hygrostat & digital controls.
Positives:
1) Ultrasonic is quieter than most other types
2) Can achieve a set humidity level and maintain it
3) Heater for mist
4) Sleek looking
Negatives:
1) Quieter than most but still has a fan that runs all the time and bothers me.
2) "sleep" program is preset to only 6 hours
Air-O-Swiss 7144 Review by Kitrax (Utah, USA)
This is my 2nd purchase of this same unit...we needed another one for the living room. I have not had a single issue with either of them. One has been running for ~8 straight months with no need for cleaning (because there's nothing to clean off it). My newest one is only 2 weeks old. They both work flawlessly.
You need to realize that this humidifier is ultrasonic, which has many advantages over "swamp cooler" style humidifiers, but they have a few things to keep in mind. If you didn't know, an ultrasonic humidifier uses a piezoelectric transducer element that vibrates at ultrasonic speeds. This causes water molecules to break off from the rest of the pool and it becomes vapor. In doing so, it also rips the mineral deposits apart from the water. This is that "white dust" you hear about. It's bad. It will accumulate pretty much everywhere in, on, and around the humidifier...including the ultrasonic element. Minerals are abrasive...and they *could* essentially "sand" away the finish on the element over time. That's bad, but it's not the manufacturer's fault by any means...it's *your* fault for using hard water.
Now, with that elementary stuff out of the way, RO water good enough for daily use with the demineralization cartridge. The "white dust" may be non-existent to your eyes, but there are still trace minerals in RO water and the cartridge in the tank can't remove everything, so they'll build up over time. That's why you have to clean it every few months. I removed the cartridge and use a mix of distilled water (from the store) and free de-ionized water from my work. I get the best performance this way. If I ever get my reverse osmosis system fixed, I might us a mix of RO water and DI water to save some $$$.
So how about some features to consider:
1. Mist control - There are 3 levels: "barely any", "a good amount", and "old faithful." I keep both units set at 50% humidity and on the highest vapor setting. This is able to keep my living room and master bedroom at an optimal humidity. The tank will last 1.5 to 2 days depending on usage and relative humidity.
2. Near silent - When it's on, the little fan (that you don't have access to) is always on. It's only there to help the vapor get up and out of the unit. It's about the same volume as a single low-speed computer fan. You can only hear it if it's dead silent in the room. When the unit is producing vapor, you can hear the hum of the ultrasonic element doing its thing, and there's the occasional "blurp" sound of air bubbles in the tank. Total noise level is less than 25% of a typical house fan on the "low" setting. In fact, when my fan is on, you cannot hear the unit at all.
3. Pre-Heating - It has a pre-heat function that *warms* the vapor. By the time the vapor leaves the unit, it's slightly above body temperature. It adds the same energy usage as a light bulb, so don't be scared off by it...it's by no means a steam humidifier. If you put your hand 3" away from the nozzle, the vapor will be cool already. Speaking of nozzles...
4. Dual adjustable output nozzles - Great for putting the vapor where you want it. If you line up the thumb tabs, the nozzle comes out for cleaning...snazzy.
5. Buttons/Display - The buttons have a nice feel to them, and the display is big and bright...it's slightly brighter than my alarm clock's display. If it's too bright for you, leave the protective film on the display and color it in with a sharpie marker. You'll still be able to see the display...just a little darker.
Now for the drawbacks...
1. No rubber feet. I like things to stay where I put them. Because it has plastic feet it will move if you bump it.
2. It does drip a bit when you remove the tank. Now understand me: this is impossible to avoid. Warm vapor + cool water tank = condensation in the vapor tube. Also, the bottom of the case comes in contact with the water that's about to be pre-heated/vaporized. Pick the tank up, let it drip for 2 seconds, tip it at a slight angle, let it drip for another 2 seconds...no spilled water. Or you can be quick and flip the tank upside down in one swift motion like I do. The tank itself does not leak.
3. The only way to fill it is to flip the tank over and unscrew the cap. I've thought about drilling/tapping a 1" hole in the top that's big enough for a funnel...but I've never got around to it. Having to flip the tank over to fill it isn't worth the effort/time.
So that's it. The 3 "cons" are so minor they don't even matter, but I thought I'd still bring them up.

Air-O-Swiss AOS 7144 Ultrasonic Humidifier:: Description
Humidification System This Digital Ultrasonic humidifier uses high-frequency vibrations to generate a micro-fine mist when blown into a room immediately evaporates. Choose the pre-heating function and mist exits the appliance at a pleasant 104 °F. «ITCTM» technology (Intelligent Temperature Compensation) monitors the temperature and automatically adjusts the output when conditions change. A replaceable demineralization (Ag+ Ionic Silver Technology) cartridge ensures water mist without lime scale or mineral residues, and the AIR-O-SWISS quad-band microbial protection system prevents microbial growth in the water base. This is particularly important when the humidifier is not used for some time with water remaining in the base.
