Terms of Service

Last updated: August 31, 2026

These terms govern your use of mistandmeter.com, operated by Slate Mill Group. By using the site you accept them. If you do not, please do not use the site.

What this site is

Mist & Meter is an independent publication about indoor air: air purifiers, humidifiers, dehumidifiers and monitors. It publishes editorial opinion, compiled manufacturer specifications, and our own arithmetic on those specifications.

It is provided for general information. It is not professional advice of any kind - not medical, not legal, not engineering, and not a substitute for a qualified assessment of your particular building.

What this site is not

• Not medical advice. We write about environments - humidity, particles, ventilation. We do not diagnose, we do not recommend treatment, and we hold no medical qualification. Anything about symptoms, conditions or treatment is a matter for a clinician.
• Not product testing. We have not tested the products we write about. Our figures come from published specifications and our calculations on them, as set out at how we rank.
• Not a retailer. Nothing is sold on this site. Every purchase happens on a third-party retailer’s site under their terms.
• Not building or electrical advice. Where we mention ductwork, plumbing, drainage or electrical work, we are describing the general situation - not instructing you to carry it out. Use a qualified trade and follow local codes.

Accuracy

We take accuracy seriously and we publish our sources so you can check us. Even so, specifications change, manufacturers revise figures, products are discontinued, and prices move constantly. We make no warranty that everything here is current or error-free at any given moment.

Always verify current specifications and prices with the manufacturer or retailer before you buy. If you find something wrong, tell us at info@mistandmeter.com - we correct confirmed errors within seven days and mark them on the page.

Affiliate links

This site contains affiliate links. We earn a commission on qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you. Full disclosure at affiliate disclosure.

We are not party to any transaction you make with a retailer. Questions about orders, delivery, returns, warranties or refunds go to the retailer, not to us.

Third-party sites

We link to manufacturer pages, retailers, and primary sources such as the EPA and AHAM. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, availability or practices. Once you leave, their terms and privacy policies apply.

Intellectual property

The text, layout, calculations and design of this site are ours. Product names and trademarks belong to their respective owners and are used for identification only - their appearance here does not imply any endorsement of us by them, or of them by us beyond what we have written.

You are welcome to quote us with attribution and a link. Wholesale reproduction of our pages is not permitted.

Limitation of liability

This site is provided “as is”. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Slate Mill Group is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of the site or from reliance on anything published here - including purchasing decisions, work carried out on a building, or outcomes that differ from what a manufacturer’s specification led you to expect.

Nothing in these terms excludes any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Acceptable use

Do not attempt to disrupt the site, scrape it at a volume that degrades it for others, or submit automated or abusive content through the contact form. The contact endpoint applies rate limiting for that reason.

Changes

We may update these terms. The date at the top of this page reflects the last change, and continued use of the site after an update constitutes acceptance.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the United States and of the state in which Slate Mill Group is established, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
