how often do you need to replace the filter?

I replace the filter about every 9-10 months. It runs 24/7 on fan speed -2 except for those weeks when the weather is nice and we open the house. I wash the foam pre- filter every month

Approx. every six to eight months, running it 8 hours a day in my bedroom. I live in the southwest, in a dry dusty environment, so it would probably last longer under less severe conditions. Also, I must clean the pre-filter at least once a week.

About every 9 months depending on how much it runs and fan speed. We use at lower fan speed majority of the time.

Eventually the filter will need to be replaced. As long as you take care of it it last a long time.

It recommends every 6 months to replace it or if your water pressure slows down .It is just like a fridge filter it just screws on. it can not be cleaned out . I have a shut off just before it to make it easier to change.

It was my understanding that the filters lasted the life of the machine. I clean it once a week with a vacuum cleaner...use the brush attachment.

The company that installed my new system said that this filter would last one year. But when they came out to do an inspection after one year, the guy said that I should have changed the filter earlier. I now change the filter every six months. So far, that seems to be about the right amount of time.

I change it every 6-8 weeks and I buy them from Amazon. Since the water sits out for approximately a week (unlike our human water), it's a good idea to use the filters.

We have used it daily since January. About 60 days. We have not had to replace any parts. Two extra filters were included with original box. We do clean the filter with the included brush after each use

We've had ours for about a year. No issues yet, just need to change the filter.

Personally I havnt had to change the filters as of yet and my machines run 24/7. I'm figuring every few months or so. The machines do come with replacement filters:)

I change the filter for our pooch about once per month. Depends on how hard the water is where you live. If you use filtered water it should last much longer.

I replace mine about every 6 months. As long as you have a shutoff valve ahead of the filter it's an easy un-screw the old, screw in the new replacement operation. I put a bucket underneath it to catch any water during the replacement (very little spills out.) Takes a couple of minutes at most.

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)

The best practice is to change it every 8 to 12 months. Even flowing strongly after that time filter could have lost part of its filtering properties.

With this particular filter, we change it every three months, I hope this helps :)

I have city water so I replace mine every 60 days as recommended. If you have whole house water filtering, then every 90 to 120 days. It does make a difference .

The filter should be replaced at least one a month or sooner depending on where the water bowl is placed. Mine is outside and the sunlight will cause algie growth and you have to clean the entire setup every two weeks. If it stays in the house once a month should be fine.

It depends on how much stuff you have in the air (I have a lot!) but the recommendation is to replace the black filter every 3 months and the big white one annually.
