How often does the filter need to be replaced?

It depends on how hard the water is. I have a water softener and the water saturation screen (not really a filter) lasts several years. Untreated water in areas with very hard water could reduce the time to six months, I imagine.

At the beginning of each heating season. If you have a long heating season and/or very hard water, probably replace twice per season.

It depends on how soon your scale build up on the filter. I change mine once a month from November to April.

Whether you have soft or hard water you just need to check it to see when it gets limed up and has a lot of calcium deposits on it. I was told twice a year. Hope this helps you

Replacement filters may be purchased direct from the manufacturer. Honestly we only need to replace them once a year as I clean the machine once a month with a vacuum/ brush and microfiber cloth. We've all had our filters (2-3 in each housed) for 4-5 years. I just bought a new one for another bedroom. Excellent air purifiers.

and usage...if you run it 24/7. I would change every three or four months. Some folks just vacuum the filters. I'm goona try it.)

I clean mine more frequently but that is different for every system. I usually get 3-4 cleanings per filter and I know it is time to throw it away when the pressure stays high after cleaning.

I think manufacturer recommends every 2-5 years for membrane (we can usually tell because the water flow decreases), other filters are every 6 months. Check out this link: http://www.premierh2o.com/filter-replacement-guide

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.

The whole filter gets replaced. I don't replace mine every 6 months either; I do it on a as needed basis. I can smell the chorine in the water right away. I typically keep one on hand to change out.

Depending on the amount of use, your filters should last 3-6 months easily. You can greatly extend the life of the filter by using a small hand vacuum or dust blower to clean the filter regularly.

Yes, the filter does need to be replaced, however, not often.Order filters through DeLonghi. I have not need to replace mine yet and I've used the machine approximately 10 times.

The filters need to be replaced as they get full of minerals and start to break down. I replace mine every six months to keep clean air filtering through my house.

I haven't had any problems with mine since I put it in. Mine been in for at least four months now, my old filter in had to clean it every month and half.

I just last December replaced the filter that I had been using since May. The builder told me I would know because the water would come out more slowly, but that never happened. So I went with the manufacturer's suggestion that the filter be replaced every 6 months.

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)

about every 3 months with daily use. it is a good idea to replace the filter the water drips through

Manual (Page 18) says every 3 weeks, but it depends on how hard your water is. If you have soft water then it's much less frequently (I use distilled water so I don't even need a filter).

Most of the filters say replace annually, bit it really depends upon your usage. I usually replace every other year and I haven't had issues with water quality...
