Venta 6001305 Water Treatment Additive  Product Reviews

"I have never ever bought this product online. I usually get it at Bed, Bath and Beyond but they seem to think that an air cleaner is a seasonal item so they don't stock it after the winter season. So with nowhere else to go I decided to give Amazon a try. Well, too bad for me that I assumed that the product would be the same size that I purchase at the local store. I had thought that I would receive the 35 oz bottle and I was sent the 17.5 oz bottle. Not only that, I had to pay more that what would be half price. I also had to pay almost $7 shipping and handling. You can be sure that I'm going to stock up in the fall with enough to last a full year and I will be buying it at the Bed, Bath and Beyond store nearby."

"Love the Venta. I found the necessary additive cheaper at buyhardwaresupplies. They're selling the large 35 oz bottle (1050 ml) for $21.99. When purchasing last year they had a free shipping > $50 (not sure if they still have this deal). You can find the Venta stuff via their "heating & cooling" selection."

"Just purchased my Airwasher/ Humidifier and so far am pleased with the ease of maintenance. I felt compelled to write a review and let other consumers know that the required water treatment additive is available from the manufacturer website with no shipping and handling charges, www.venta-airwasher.com"

"This additive is an absolute necessity when operating the Venta Airwashwer. Whenever you replace the water of the Airwasher completely (every 10-14 days according to the manual) and rinse it out, you will need to add a portion of this additive. The bottle lasts for about 12 such cycles. I have actually found that I need to replace the water every 10 days to avoid the buildup of "gunk" in the water. I have lived in an area where the water had a much higher mineral content compared to where I live now and found myself doing a complete rinse-out of the Airwasher and replacement of the water and the treastment additive every week, just because the build-up of mineral deposits was so high."
