Is there a filter that is in the product or does the water need to be filtered before it reaches the dispenser?

The unit will work without a filter and does not have one. I have connected my reverse osmosis system to the dispenser. It works great. If a reverse osmosis system is not available, an in line carbon filter will do just fine for drinking water. This filter can be very inexpensive. I will be glad to help if you have any other questions. FPROPLUMBING@GMAIL.COM

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...

As far as I've seen, you shouldn't need a filter after the unit. We have one anyway, to catch anything that goes through during the backwash process (while the unit is not filtering the water).

The filter comes with a cartridge inside. It is supposed to last for up to 2 years. My water has never been so clean.

HI Ruth,the pump does not have a filter.If you need to pump the water more than 12" high I would suggest a little bigger pump.

No you do not filters. You do need to use distilled water. This product works very well. You will love this product. You do need the oil that they recommend for this product. It can run not stop for 3 hours then shut off when the water is low or it can run for 7 hours.

You need to buy a filter. One thing we don't like about this machine is that the water gauge is on the top next to where you add the water and it's hard to see if unless you are standing on a chair to look while filling. We've gone to a Cuisinart.

No filters needed. The water container must be cleaned out periodically which has a built in filter (screen).

If you only use distilled water, a filter is not required. It is recomended if you use tap water.

When you first use the filter, or when using the filter, you have to let the water run from the tap before using the filter. This allows residues and settled salts, chlorine, and other impurities to leave.

No filter, I purchased drops that you put in with the water to keep it safe and pure for long term storage.

No there is no filter. I did not find it necessary in my old one since we clean it every day.

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

No, filtered water is not required. I've been using plain tap water - and the filter that came with this great coffee maker and fits on top of the coffee basket.. Think I will buy more of those filters when time runs its course on this one (I believe its use is for one month). Hope you enjoy your Mr. Coffee Maker as much as I'm enjoying mine.

No, but it does look like one! The filter has a smaller flow of water, about the diameter of a small straw or thin pencil. The unfiltered flow is about your normal faucet flow and comes from the chrome to the left of the filter in this illustration. The filtered flow is smaller. It takes me about 4 minutes to fill a plastic gallon jug from the filter. 4 minutes in the house, not going to the store for a gallon of water. I try to fill a few jugs when I have time, a couple in the fridge and a couple to store for pet water bowls, plant watering, and any other needs for filtered water. Good luck!

yes, there is a filter but this is a unreliable kettle. I bought 5 months ago. when it worked it is okay, not the best. It started leaking and I have to ship it back for a refuns

There isn't a filter. It's just a stand and a jar for the water to go into.

It doesn't need a filter. The way it's made is a filter in itself. Hope that help!
