Inside Baby Bird
Simple on the outside.
Purposeful on the inside.
Baby Bird is being designed around a simple idea: a dedicated physical air filter reminder should not need your phone, Wi-Fi, an account, or another app.
A replaceable battery powers the timer, indicator light, and chirp. Change your filter, press the reset button, and Baby Bird starts keeping track again.
Product shown is a development concept. Final appearance and specifications may change.
A simple maintenance habit
How often should you change your home air filter?
There is no single replacement schedule for every home air filter. How often yours should be changed depends on the filter, your HVAC system, how often the system runs, and conditions in your home.
Some common residential filters may need attention every few months, while other filter types can last considerably longer. Check the recommendations for your filter and HVAC system to determine the right schedule for your home.
Once you know your schedule, the next challenge is simply remembering it. That's the job Baby Bird is designed to handle.
Frequently asked questions
A few things you may be wondering.
What is Baby Bird?
Baby Bird is a simple physical home air filter reminder. Place it near your filter, reset it when you change the filter, and let Baby Bird keep track of when it is time to remind you again.
How does Baby Bird remind me?
When the reminder interval is reached, Baby Bird uses a light and chirp to get your attention. After changing the filter, press the reset button to start the next reminder cycle.
Does Baby Bird need an app or Wi-Fi?
No. Baby Bird is designed as a dedicated physical reminder without requiring an app, Wi-Fi connection, online account, or subscription.
Where do I put Baby Bird?
Baby Bird is designed to peel and stick near the location where you change your home air filter, keeping the reminder close to the maintenance task itself.
Does Baby Bird work with HVAC and furnace filters?
Baby Bird is not connected to the HVAC equipment itself. It is a physical timer and reminder, so it can be used to help remember a filter-change schedule for many residential HVAC or furnace filter setups.
How often should I change my home air filter?
There is no single schedule for every home. Replacement timing depends on your filter, HVAC system, system use, and household conditions. Follow the recommendations for your particular filter and HVAC equipment.
Can I replace the battery?
The current Baby Bird design is being developed with a replaceable battery so the device can continue doing its job without becoming another disposable gadget.
