Replacement filter pads for a Wet/Dry filter?

I have a CPR wet/dry and i was wondering which pads I should go for to replace my current one, and how often I should be replacing them.

Thanks

Assuming you have a drip tray.....I'd use the Whisper 12 packs w/ carbon.

They'd be the easieast and convenient way to do this. I'd change them every week or so as they got dirty. Plus no need to try and rinse the nasties out of the pads!

I actually moved away from the tray, cut a notch in the top of the wet/dry, and went with a filter sock. It is much quieter and you can simply throw it in the washer when it gets dirty...

Do you use carbon w/ the sock?

What happened to the mean and ugly avatars?

No carbon... i use it when i need to but that isn't often.

as far as avatars... I needed one to match my title thingy... I may appear rough and mean on the outside... but i am soft and squishy on the inside (just ask my mommy).
