Common Questions
What's the main difference between Levoit Classic 160 and 300S?
The Classic 160 (2.5L, manual control, $30) is simpler and perfect for small rooms. The 300S (6L, smart features, auto humidity control, $70) is ideal for larger spaces and those wanting automation. Both are top-fill and easy to clean.
Should I buy the Levoit 160 or 300S for a nursery?
Both work excellently for nurseries. Choose the 160 if you want the simplest, most affordable option with zero lights. Choose the 300S if you want auto humidity control, longer runtime, and smart monitoring via app—especially helpful for anxious parents.
Can I control humidity levels with the Levoit Classic 160?
The 160 has manual mist control via a dial—you adjust it yourself. It cannot automatically maintain a set humidity level. For automatic humidity control, you need the 300S with its built-in humidistat and Auto Mode.
Which Levoit humidifier is quieter: 160 or 300S?
Both are extremely quiet. The 160 operates at 26-28dB, the 300S at 28dB. The difference is negligible—both are whisper-quiet and suitable for light sleepers.
Do I need distilled water for both Levoit 160 and 300S?
Yes, both are ultrasonic humidifiers and require distilled or purified water to prevent white dust (mineral residue). Using tap water will leave white powder on furniture regardless of the model.
Are both Levoit humidifiers safe for babies and pets?
Yes, both are BPA-free, use cool mist (no burn risk), and have automatic shut-off when empty. Both are pediatrician-recommended humidifier types for nurseries.
Which Levoit model is easier to clean?
Both feature top-fill design and wide openings, making them equally easy to clean. The 160 is slightly simpler due to fewer parts, but the difference is minimal. Both require weekly vinegar cleaning.
Do I need the app to use the Levoit 300S?
No! The 300S works perfectly without the app using its touch panel controls. The app is optional for remote control, scheduling, and monitoring—not required for basic operation.
Can I run both Levoit humidifiers 24/7?
Yes, both can run continuously. The 160 needs daily refills on high settings, while the 300S can go 2-3 days between refills. Both auto-shutoff when empty prevents damage.
Which Levoit model has better humidity control?
The 300S has superior humidity control with its built-in humidistat and Auto Mode that maintains your target humidity level. The 160 requires manual adjustment—you control mist output but not specific humidity percentage.
Are replacement parts available for both Levoit models?
Yes, Levoit sells replacement water filter sponges and cleaning accessories for both models on Amazon. Search 'Levoit Classic 160 replacement filter' or 'Levoit Classic 300S replacement filter.'
Which Levoit humidifier saves more on electricity?
The 160 uses only 17W (about $1.80/month running 24/7). The 300S uses slightly more due to larger capacity but still very efficient at around $3-4/month. Both are energy-efficient ultrasonic models.
