Does the plumbed machine have a water filter? Can one be added?

The plumbed unit can have a filter added. I did on my unit and yes you can add one. Its a great system and the only thing you must do is rinse the milk pipework after every use so the milk doesn't dry inside the plumbing. It can be easily cleaned, you just have to learn how. Get the two year warranty, JUST IN CASE. Mine has been great and I love mine.

If I remember correctly yes. I do NOT recommend this brand. we had nothing but problems. the design engineering was so complicated neither the authorized warranty company nor the regional Miele repair employee would service the machines. We replaced ours with a Thermador. We love it. Our only issue is it is not directly plumbed but it is simple to fill clean and use so the plumbing turned out to not be an issue.

No this system does not have a water filter nor can one be added. There are water settings to configure for water hardness only. However, this is a very high quality machine that produces an amazing cup of coffee!

The machine does not have a built in water filter. You can add one at the source of the water. We did. The machine is amazing. It takes some serious reading of instructions to get to know it well. It has some built in programing that forces you to descale the machine every so many cups of coffee, depending on your water hardness. What this does is remove lime deposits.

No, you will need to purchase a separate inline filter for the water line that is connected to the back of the unit.

Hi! The filter is removable plus a little black basket under that. I do clean those and the to clean the machine I run a cycle of diluted white vinegar and then clean water through two more times to keep it all nice and new. I also keep the water basin lid open if its empty and let it dry

yes. But, I do not recommend this item. We bought 2 and neither one works properly with or without the filter. We used their old style water system for years but it has been discontinued.

Yes, an extra filter came with the machine. Best purchase I have made in a long time.

As i recall there is the unit with two filters in it, the water tubes with a faucet connector, and adapters for different types of faucet threading. Join the filters for life, it is worth it for the support.

The one I bought did. It's hard to imagine that they'd sell it to you without those items. Incidentally, it's a great piece of equipment. I plumbed it myself and it works beautifully, but be sure and maintain it properly. I open it up and hose the filter off each Saturday as part of my routine pool maintenance.

Yes, there is a filter in the back of the unit that needs to be replaced from time to time. I'm not sure how many gallons of water they are rated to filter. We just go by the taste of the water. Very happy with the unit. It's in the reception area of my Chiroractic office. No complaints. I did have a plumber install it. I don't like to mess with water, just spines. Hope this helps! Cheers...

Mine came with the three filters. You'll have clean water if you need it. Great piece of equip't.

Filter free. Or it has a filter built in that doesn't need replacing. I'm not sure. The only thing that can be opened/accessed is the water reservoir. The instruction manual doesn't mention a filter. It's a very simple design. That is not to say the technology is simple...

This machine is not designed to take a filter. We would still highly recommend using a filtered water to prevent scale from building up in the boiler.

hi, there is no filter in the unit. you will need to install a filter between the cold water line and the unit. good luck!

Yes, there is a filter in this faucet located at the spray head where the water comes out, which is removable. (My husband said this filter is called an aireator.) I hope this helps you...

Mine came with the permanent filter which you just have to rinse....I don't know where to buy an additional one but you could probably search the internet using the brand name and model#.

Hi Judith . Does your machine use this type of filter ? If yes, the filter should go into a filter holder in the water supply tank. Follow the instructions about soaking the filter in clean water for a short time and then rinsing it with clean water prior to installing. It's an easy procedure..
