How often on average do the charcoal filters need to be changed?

To be honest not very often, probably about every six months. I give them a gentle rinse when necessary and they still seem to do the job! As I empty the inner container every day onto our compost heap there's never any smell.

I have had my crock for about 6 months and haven't yet replaced my filter. I have rinsed it and let it dry several times. No issue with odors at all.

We change ours every 3 months (90 days) - We have a thing set up with Amazon to send us a filter quarterly, we have an extra on hand so after I use the one I have a new one waiting. Ours has a dial on top to tell me when to change (in case I forget)

It depends on how often you run the unit and how much dust/allergens it's filtering out of the air. If it is always running then generally the filter should be replaced every 6-8 months.

I change them a little longer that the recommended times. We use the filtered water only for cooking and related things. There are two time frames: One filter will last one year plus and the other two should be changed every 6 months. As I said we try to wait a little longer. Maybe 8 months for the two and 14- to 16 months on the one. It really depends on use and the quality of your water.

I believe they suggest every 3-4 months...I purchased the filters online at amazon actually.

The manufacturer recommends every six months, you can rinse the carbon filter. The machine has an indicator light that tells you when the filter needs changing. I personally love the winix and it controls smoke and dust very well!

I haven't change my carbon filters as of yet and the other filter the manufacture say's its good for a year. Which that to me remain to be seen.I say that only because I have only had my 2 unit up and run for 2 months on auto any have only shut them off to check the filters and they all look just fine.My units came package with 3 extra carbon filters.

Naturally, it depends on what you put into the trash receptacle as to how bad the odor is or how bad it will get. We replace our filters about every 3 months and get along real well the odor control.

I use these filters for my Cuisinart Coffeemaker Model DCC-1200. The manufacturer recommends replacing the charcoal filter every 60 days, or after 60 uses, and more often if you have hard water. This will allow you to achieve maximum taste of your cup of coffee!

yes there are two diffferent filters to be replaced , depending on use . one is a HEPA filter and the other is a charcoal one , looking at about $35.00 for filters . they can be found on amazon or other online sites.. filters should last about a year under normal use..

How many times did you run water through the filter when you got it? You should run water through the filter between 3-5 pitchers (don't drink this water, use it for plants or something) and the charcoal should stop coming through. You also have to clean the filter when you get it by running it under water. If you did those things and you still get charcoal you may have a bad filter

As I use only distilled water, I usually change my filter approx. every 3 - 4 months. Hope this is helpful to you.

When the carbon filter is full you will need to replace. The LED light will turn red that's the time to change. Depending on usage i think mine lasted about a year.

I only needed to replace mine at most, once a month. I would say it really depends on if you leave the filter on when you feed your fish. By turning it off during feeding, I could sometimes go 2-3 months before changing it.

Usually every 6 months or so depending on usage. The machine will tell you when the filter needs changing
