Where is the carbon air filter located? The description says it has one but I'm not seeing it.

It came in the packaging and is a thin and black piece of padding like material that you install in the air intake

Standing in front of the unit, look down. On the back of the unit on each corner you will find a triangle. Press on them and push away from the unit and the back will open. The filter is in the section you just removed.

The one that says air clean on it is the exhaust filter. Below are links to YouTube videos showing filter change. One mistake on the first video. The narrator says it is a hepa filter.It is not the hepa filter. It is just an air clean filter that comes in the box with the dust bags. You have to buy the hepa filters separately if you want to use them. The hepa filter or the air clean filter, it's your choice which one you want to use. It's one or the other, but not both at the same time. If you are going to use a hepa filter it goes in the same place as the air clean filter. You have to remove the plastic grill that holds the air clean filter in place and then just snap in the hepa filter. The third YouTube video shows a hepa filter change. If you can't click on the links, just copy and paste one of them at a time in your address bar at the top of your screen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0c-7Qw3nHNg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Veh_VPOVsDw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1k9Mkqy48cE

On the inside of the lid, there is a place for the filter. Open this up and install the filter.

It's located behind the drivers side wheel well liner. In order to change the filter, the tire must be turned and the screws holding the wheel well liner must be removed (4 or 5), as well as a screw holding the wheel well liner to the front bumper. This can be done with the car on the ground, but it's a bit cumbersome.

No where. There is no place to refill the co2 canisters. It's a scam. Don't buy this device.

Unfortunately, it does not come with the carbon filters. I just received mine today. That said, the one that I purchased is black in color. I am not sure if the color of the unit makes a difference as to whether or not the carbon filters are included.

It's just a normal carbon filter like the kind that comes with air filter devices but it is a generic cut. Totally worth the cheap price.

The white filter goes on the outside . You should be sucking air through the filter and exhausting that filtered air.

You can use one in each.....Just change/clean the carbon filter more often.

The filter is for the air intake system under the hood, and is a quantity of 2 filters. The image is misleading because the air filter is much more long and slender vs, the square image shown.

Yea, I bought mine from amazon - it just replaces the stock air box/filter. also came with a heat shield

The unit includes one HEPA and one carbon filter. I ordered the additional filters for replacements. The carbon filter should be replaced after three months of continuous use, and the HEPA should be replaced after 12 months of continuous use. Note: The front panel has lights to indicate when a filter is due to be replaced. It glows yellow for a several weeks then changes to red, so you get plenty of advance notice that a new filter is due.

I called Hamilton Beach and they told me there are filters for this item. I think they are incorrect. I will make my own filters from a sheet of cut-to-fit carbon as suggested by another writer.

The black flimsy one sits on top of the actual filter located at the rear of the air filter. The filter is rectangular with a black edge. Amazon sells the replacement filters.

It can definitely be used with a carbon filter. I have one in my room now scrubbing the air, it works great and is quiet. I highly recommend. This is the filter I paired it with,

Look on the rubber seal. It should have some sort of indication as to which end is up. If I'm not mistaken I was unable to close the air filter compartment when the sir filter was in upside down. I hope this helps

The air intake is the "oval" area on the front of the machine. The filter is right behind the oval area. The "clean" air comes from the left side. Don't hesitate to buy this as you will be quite satisfied with it.
