how to clean the filter

There is an air filter and two water filters. Detailed instructions came with the product. Too elaborate to explain here. We have cleaned the air filter; not the water filters yet.

There's a screw on left side you unscrew it and clean filter in there also think you can buy new ones

As HMN_WPB says, you need to read the instruction manual. If you have lost yours, or didn't get one, you can find one at https://www.efaucets.com/images/SEO/Washlets/S300_Instruction.pdf.

Sorry, I can't help with this. I returned the item due to poor performance and didn't have it long enough to have to clean the filter. Good luck.

Very simple. Remove the used filter by sliding it off and slip the new one on. If I am going to use the humidifier immediately, I usually soak the new filter in water before putting it on. That way, the humidifier is ready to go. Be sure to fill the water reservoir with fresh clean water. If your water is particularly hard, you might want to add a softening solution, such as "Golden Solution Water treatment". This is available at Amazon.com.

You can clean the filter yourself and use it over and over again. I can't foresee ever buying another filter for it.

You remove the filter, run a vacuum cleaner brush over it, and reinsert it. You can also buy a replacement if it wears out or becomes damaged.

I've only had mine for 2months..I'm not sure,but other reviewers have said they have vacuumed or lightly brushed the filter to clean.

Next time improvise a filter in front of it, like a cloth or some screen on it so it won't get dirt, and you just need to clean the filter you had place. :)

I'm not sure. I would tap the filter on the floor to get off as much dust as possible then brush it off maybe with an old tooth brush or stiff paint brush. let it dry and then brush and tap more.

How about reading the manual. It's online. Pull out the water container. Reach in and pull the filter down. It is towards the the front of the unit. Wash, dry and replace.

I clean my Filter every Week, just to keep it clean. I soak it in Vinegar and water 50/50 for about 10 hours.

I also wondered about washing the HEPA filter - I found this information on the manufacturer website: Remove the filter cover from the front of the vacuum by pulling up on the tab and pulling the cover away from the vacuum. Take out the HEPA filter by pulling it straight out, turn the filter over so that the dirty side is on the bottom and vigorously tap it clean against a trash can to remove any dust. Wash the filter under the tap using lukewarm water with the dirty side face down until the water runs clear. Allow the filter to air dry for 24 hours. Once the HEPA filter is dry, replace it back into the vacuum, and then replace the cover by inserting the two tabs into the holes at the top and then swinging the cover down until it clicks into place.

Good news I tried something I took mine and rinsed it a few times under warm water then washed the whole thing in warm soapy water now it's nice and clean and good to go, it's all dry now so washing didn't ruin it. I couldn't get the filter out of mine either my friend has one same thing

I usually shake the filter out in the outside trash can and get as much lint and dirt off as possible then wash out in warm soapy water, you can let it soak and rinse with cool clean water and air dry completely before reusing.

There are instructions on youtube. You basically use soapy water and wash the filter. Let it dry. Then apply a little bit of oil on the tips of the fins to collect the initial portion of dust and so forth. Different manufactures use different methods.

change the removable filters from the wand the one that connects to tubing. Clean the wand tip with alcohol

I shake loose the filter and then separate it and pull spring. I bought a replacement filter for when I wash it because I wait 24 hrs for it to dry. I vac daily. I use a drop of dawn and warm water when washing every week.

What I did was vacuum the actual blue filter thoroughly as it really didn't look very dirty even though I got a "change filter" message. Then I washed the plastic grid piece it fits into thoroughly and let it dry. I reassembled it and still got a change filter message. However, I discovered there is a tiny "reset filter" hole near the top of the inside of the unit where you place the filter. I stuck a paperclip in the hole and pushed, and now it's behaving as if it has a brand new filter! I think maybe if this is done on a regular basis that you can get a lot more use out of this unit, even though the filters are "no longer available."
