when to change filter?

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 just emailed the company and they said to change every two months with this IMPORTANT NOTE: Since you are dealing with water, it is very easy, and extremely common to end up with a moldy filter if it is not taken care of. Whenever you turn your humidifier off you should remove the filter. Never let the filter sit inside the wet unit while it is off.

I only use my humidifier in the winter months because of my high efficiency wood burning fireplace. The humidifier reduces the dust and puts moisture back into the air. Replacing the filter each winter is enough for me. Flip the filter every couple of weeks to keep each end of the filter wet or else it will fall apart. The filter doesn't wick completely and the dryness on one end causes problems.

I usually change the filter [which are not expensive] when I notice that the humidity is dropping in the room or when there is a calcium crust on the top of the filter.

The filter should be changed 1 time per month if you have 1-2 animals and more often if you have more than that. If you have any questions, please contact us at tina@pioneerpet.com

Filter should be changed as needed depending on how much your furnace or air conditioner runs and how much pollution it has to filter out of the air. I would not let my filter go beyond 90 days in winter because it runs a lot in winter and I usually can feel when there is less then normal amount of air delivered into rooms via the HVAC system. I set my calendar reminder for 90 days because you don't want to put a strain on your HVAC system and forgetting to change could be a bad thing.

Printed on the edge of the filter: "Change every 6 to 12 months - more often if the filter appears dirty." My HVAC person recommended every 6 months.

I would say it depends on the conditions at your home. We live up in the mountains where it is very dusty, so we check it at least once a month. We'll change it based on the amount of dust on the filter paper. We can generally go a couple of months before having to change it out.

the documentation suggest changing every year. My filter came with a countdown timer that starts at 365 days and counts backwards to 0 at which time an alarm went off. Hope this is helpful.

When I bought a new pitcher it showed a schedule of how often to change the filters, it shows every 2 months. I write it on my calendar so I don't forget.

12 month indicator points represent when to replace it. Suppose when you start indicator point on 10th point, it represent October. You can change the next point every month when it ends. That means you have to change every filter after 12 months of use. Note:-No need to change water filter when uses mineral water into the filter water chamber.

Depends on how much the furnace runs, and the amount of particulates in the air. If you get one of these: G99 Air Filter Gage it will tell you when you should change the filter. When you're buying a filter this pricey, it will pay for itself.

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

I have been cleaning the equipment each time the water starts tasting different. I change filters according to time, but if for some reason, the water continues to take differently, then I would replace it earlier. There isn't any type of indicator on the equipment, just your own site, taste, and time.

Naturally, it depends on how much you use it, but we get at least a month or two out of each filter. We can tell by the taste when it needs to be changed.

The instructions say change the filter every two months. I fill it with water every day generally.

The frequency of changing filters depends a lot on the water quality entering the filter. I have installed two of these on two rural wells that had hard rusty water. I installed an iron filter followed by a water softener ahead of this filter and now have great water for the house and excellent drinking water where before I had issues with stained clothing and rust colored fixtures. In my case the filters have not been changed yet although its not 2 years yet. If you're worried about knowing when to change filters there is a dissolved solids meter for sale for about $30 that can help you make the decision.

I change them a little longer that the recommended times. We use the filtered water only for cooking and related things. There are two time frames: One filter will last one year plus and the other two should be changed every 6 months. As I said we try to wait a little longer. Maybe 8 months for the two and 14- to 16 months on the one. It really depends on use and the quality of your water.

We change the filter around every 4 months. I know when it is time to change the filter as the rate of flow of the water decreases as more material is filtered out of the water. I hope this helps you out. Good luck.
