how often do you use this every time you water?
2076037
I use it every other watering, so about every other week, but that is just based on my needs and there are probably a bunch of variables that would determine how often you would want to use it. I know certain plants recommend more or less frequent fertilizing.

Personally I shoot for about 6 minutes -but- I break it up- I go about 2 min at a time and let it soak several minutes in between. I feel this really is effective. I usually give it 2 rinses- but agitate it for maybe 1 min each time. This really is a great little gadget.

The instructions say that once you have a clean tank, you need to use it "periodically" to keep your tank clean. I presume the frequency you use it depends on your water (e.g., well water, city water, conditioned water, etc.). The type of water you have going into your tank may make a considerable difference in how often you need to use it. I have a water softener, so the water going into my tank is softened and I need to use the toilet tank cleaner infrequently. Someone with hard water going into their tank will likely need to use it much more frequently. Just check your tank once in a while and you'll know when it's time to use it again. Hope that answers your question. The instructions say that once you have a clean tank, you need to use it "periodically" to keep your tank clean.

I leave mine there everyday only time I empty it is when I clean it or put in a new filter . as long as you use it and keep feeling it, the water doesn't get bad. If you leave it sit to long maybe I would yes and use fresh water.

I use it every time I wash my hair...so every other day for me. I think it depends on the persons' need.

I have city water so I replace mine every 60 days as recommended. If you have whole house water filtering, then every 90 to 120 days. It does make a difference .

I use it once or twice a week. I have used it for a while now - so I can feel when I need to use it.

I just use it for water, but I clean it out by running a jug of water with a little dish soap through it and then I run through just water a few times

I change mine on average every 4-6 weeks. We have moderately hard water and it gets progressively crustier at the top as time goes by; this reduces its efficiency in humidifying the air. You will know this is happening if it uses less and less water even on the high fan setting.

I usually clean ir about once every week and a half. I usually just rinse out the bottle and then refill as needed, maybe once a week.

Every 50 gallons of use. Or approximately 6 months. After 6 months I take the cartridge out and drain the water from it and shake it. If there is power in there your good, if not replace it.

I use it two or three times a day. I buy the giant size, so it last about two months.

We've only used it once so far. We used it at the end of October 2013. I was told by a plumber to use it every 18 months. Hope that helps!

My water source is ~296ppm. I get about 4-6 weeks use out of one filter before it gets an acrid taste that lets me know that the filter needs to be changed. My wife and I drink water about 90-95% of the time, so it gets a lot of use before I change the filter.

You can pull the filter out as many times as you want it's just a little sponge that you pull out from the bottom But I would say it can vary with how much use you put in to it before it needs to be cleaned

Just one gallon at a time. If u are using tap water, be sure to scrub out after every use. I catch rain water and use it to distill. It tastes better and isn't hard to clean after a use. I hope this was help full. Good luck :-)
