Very noisy in humidifier parts and accessories

Used to replace model #1042L. The valve works, but it slams and shakes the humidifier/duct, causing a "rumble" throughout the house every time the stove is turned off.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Useless features

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor quality - parts and accessories

Installed as advertised and adjusted the humidistat but the valve didn't work. Adjusted the humidistat up and down, still not working. Sent back and replaced with a genuine GeneralAir valve that worked great.

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • cable is shorter than other picks

Exactly what I needed.

Works as described. Save me $$ by not using the heating service. Thanks to my heater guy for suggesting this route and saving me $$. Going through the heater would cost me a few hundred parts and labor.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Socket required

AMI Solnoid Value - Accessory

I didn't like this part because it is not compatible with the General Aire part. After I left a review it kept running and I had to remove it and replace it with an old part and order a perfectly fitting part from Generalaire!

Pros
  • Elegant Design
Cons
  • Compatibility

Made in China good for accessories

fittings bracket as per OEM. Worked when installed even though the weather was warm so didn't get much opportunity to open and close the humidifier valve. I replaced the hole from my old one in case they were different and I knew the OEM was correct.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Modern

Incorrect hole size for accessory

This unit is exactly the same as the one I replaced EXCEPT the flow restriction sleeve was much larger than the original which meant a lot of extra water was poured through the humidifier and ended up, in the basement . I replaced the original's smaller bore part/coupling and now it seems to be getting the right amount of water.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Damaged

Not quite a replacement for my regular humidifier

Seemed like a direct replacement but the opening was larger. I had to use the hole from the old valve. Also, my old one had a small built-in filter, but this one didn't. Missing star for another hole. I don't see why this is changing, but it takes a lot of hot water to start. Not good. Even louder. Problem-free solution, hence only one star deduction.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Not the best

Exact Match Except for Flow

As others have noted, this device appears to be identical to the original except that its flow appears to be unlimited. The original part seemed to control the flow of water automatically. This unit requires a water flow restriction with a shutoff valve on the humidifier water supply, which luckily I was able to do for myself. Otherwise, this device would spit out too much water, causing an overflow and eliciting the most outrageous scream imaginable! So if you're willing to play around with…

Pros
  • Rugged Finish
Cons
  • Concise Instructions

Inaccurate replacement for GeneralAire

I bought this to replace a broken original on my GeneralAire 1042-L. The device arrived quickly and looked good at first glance. Everything was there, a perfect fit at first glance, assembly was easy, and based on recommendations from other reviews I used teflon tape on all threads and there were no leaks. Unfortunately, as someone else noted, the flow rate on this replacement is significantly higher than the actual General Aire solenoid. It ended up blocking the pillow, overflow pump and…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Safety
