It is easily removed, and should be rinsed under running water. Every 80 cycles, or after 6 months of operation, it should be replaced. Wm. H. Young

Look under Brita Replacement Filters for UltraMax. My larger filters are for PUR.

You are doing it right. This is a gravity filter. The water is purified by slowly passing through the black activated charcoal media. It could take up to an hour for all the water to pass through the filter(s). However, sometimes these filters get a little clogged up and slow down significantly. In that case take a sponge with a "soft" scrubber back and gently scrub the filter's surface. Rinse the filter with water and you should see an improved rate of gravity filtering. If your filter(s) have been used for a long while, and don't improve after scrubbing, it may be time to replace them.

Hi, go to the manufacturer's website. http://www.theperfectwater.com/Replacement-Filters/ they have filters available for the system you purchased.

No. The optional is for the charcoal prefilter. You should use the standard prefilter, if not using the optional charcoal one. It will make your main filter last longer.

I'm not sure if a replacement cartridge is produced, being that the filter is so small. All I did was to pull the bottom out, separating the charcoal filter from the piece of sponge. Rinsethe sponge out until it's free of gunk. Then rinse the charcoal filter, put it all back together and you're good to go. Hope that helps you.

This uses an American replacement but any brand of this type works. I do not use the filter as the distilled water is already pure.

Yes, of course it will. The charcoal filter is just in case you want to have a cleaner water (free of fluoride I mean).

I think these filters are worthless! I purchased several for my 2 gallon and smaller tanks for Betas and don't find them effective at all. I don't believe you can put charcoal in them, only takes the small foam filters that I haven't seen in stores. My advice is to try Drs. Foster & Smith for small tank filters, that's what I did!

Make sure to soak the charcoal filter for at least 10 minutes in water and rinse that thoroughly. 1 Tbs of coffee per cup. I use paper filters. if all else fails, bottled water.

Yes. The water filter is the replaceable charcoal type placed into the water reservoir. Replace about once per month or a bit more depending upon level of use. Available from Amazon.

Sorry Colleen, I'm not sure. I called the company to confirm which filter would work for me maybe you could do the same - They were really helpful

I really don't know the answer to your question -- but I'd certainly like to know "just in case" I need the information in the future. The main problem I have is the bits of charcoal that continually come through the filter (especially weekly when I'm running a strong stream of hot water through it to help "clean" it.) Good luck.

That's the point of the filter. It will get dirty over time. If you want to extend the time between changes you may want to get a replacement filter that includes the charcoal pre-filter as it will help pick up some of the larger debris and can be hand washed.

I believe it is the standard number 10 charcoal filter. They should cost around $10 or less at the Amazon website
