What is the filter life on this product?

It depends on the usage. I have the unit in my office reception area and it gets a lot of use. I've changed the cartridges twice in two years and the water tastes clean.

No filter. Have to purchase a seperate in line filter. I bought a culigan that should last me about 8-9 months for around $20

there is no filter included in this product you would have to configure your own filtration system

you supply your own filter. depends on the usage but generally we get 6 months out a filter

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.

I ordered this replacement and it works http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000B8URLI/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have read that you are supposed to replace the filter 1xper year, but who knows what kind of usage they are basing that off of. I replaced mine after only 4 or 5 months (when I started noticing a considerable difference), but I hadn't realized until afterward that you are supposed to reverse the filter every 30 days. I am hoping if I do that it will last at least a few more months this time.

Not sure - but worth passing on that mine clogged up after only 2 months of regular use and I got no response from the company when I contacted them about it. Its meant to last up to 6. I'd try another brand, or one that has replaceable filters. It worked great when it was working!

The unit has a timer that reminds you to change the filter every 6 months. I changed the filter for the first time this month (I've only had my GermGuardian 6 months) but after I did I realized the filter wasn't all that dirty, probably could have easily been wiped off and would have lasted at least another 3 months. We have a large dog but live in Seattle where there's not a TON of dust in the air. We run it 24/7 on medium.

From amazon I think I've read 1 year, from another website that sells the same filter I've read 1-2 I guess it depends how much you use it. Hope this helps!

Depends on the faucet you have installed. Some faucets have a "filter life" indicator which tells you when to replace.

I haven't had any problems with mine since I put it in. Mine been in for at least four months now, my old filter in had to clean it every month and half.

That's about it... The one that came with the cleaner lasted about that long as well.. After average use of once a week and occasional cleaning of the filter, I replace them in 10-12 months. If you have pets, more often probably!!

I've been running it on low for the last 6 weeks. I have had no problems with it. Only time I turn if off is to clean it once a week. I let the filter dry for about an hour. No issues.

I only use it for about several weeks, and it works well for now but i don't know how long it lasts. As for the filter, I may try to buy a new bottle considering the price of this bottle.

First of all the cleaner the filter, the faster it filters. When it is new, it will filter the full amount in about 6 hours. After the filter gets some use, it will take a bit longer. I take mine out and wash them every 3-4 months and change them once a year.

You would have to ask the manufacturer of the filters for that info.....I'm just a consumer :)

I'd say the two-month time on each filter applies if you're using it a lot, say 5 liters a day. Otherwise, you can keep it for 3-4 months.

I just put a piece of blue tape with the install date on the filter and replace in a year or if the flow slows appreciably (which in my usage/experience takes > 1 year). The filters have gotten more expensive - I used to get them for $70-80 so now I wait longer to replace :)

I can't tell you how long it lasts since I am still using it. Be sure and get the pre-filter which will keep most of the dirt off of this filter.

Yes, but only 1 if I recall correctly. A single filter should last about 3 months.
