Does the Nutriteam Counter Distiller come with extra filters? How often do they have to be replaced?

There is a box of little activated carbon filters that I looked at and tossed. I can think of few reasons one might want to filter distilled water (and even fewer good reasons), but I can't imagine the pathetic little carbon pouches and even more pathetic placement method would be useful in any scenario.The filters seem an afterthought to let marketing claim this technically has a filter. Like the others said, it's a great distiller with no replacement parts needed. Fill, distill, collect, clean, repeat.

I really love this thing... I use it nearly every day for clean drinking water... I used that silly filter once and decided that it was useless. If you want a counter top distiller for a reasonable price this unit should do the job.

I haven't had to replace mine as yet (just got it last week). But I will check Amazon for pre-filter and filter. I just checked and Amazon carries the filters for $33.

Hi- they take filters and they need to be replaced every 2-3 months depending on usage.They are currently out of stock, but they are also sold on Amazon. They will be back in stock on 06/05/2015 on Amazon.

It did not come with an extra filter. I have only had the product for about 1 month so haven't had that issue yet.

I never needed to get filter cartridges for the coffee maker. I used filtered water so I didn't see a need to filter the water twice. I no long have this coffee maker. It was a problem from the day I got it. If you haven't purchased it yet I would look for a different model. This is one I bought and am very please with, Cuisinart DCC-1200 Brew Central 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker. Good luck.

If I remember correctly, my fountain did come with one filter. I would still advise ordering a three pack of them with your fountain because they do need to be replaced periodically.

Are you saying you are buying the cleaning solution, or the machine itself? If you are talking about the machine, it comes with one. After you used it for awhile, dirt will get trapped in the filter and you can't wash it out anymore, then you do have to replace the filter. I hope I answered your question!

I believe it comes with enough to get started. So if its a dual filter system, it should come with two filters. Buying the filters on amazon is really cheap so I would buy extra, so you don't have to worry when your ready to do a water change.

Mine came with a few filters. I don't recall how many, but there were some included.

In my opinion, yes. The filters are very cheap and do the final step in the distilling process.They are also long lasting. but I doubt that you could ever tell the difference between the filtered and unfiltered

No filter that I'm aware of. I've used two of them for a year. I use filtered water, not distilled.

They come with a filter, but I bought some extra ones for replacements. I change the filter about every 6 weeks or so.

Just one. I have a similar unit that uses the same type of filter, and I change mine once a year even though I think I could wait longer. I keep an extra filter on hand just in case.

I don't believe their is a filter . only a water demineralization cartridge in that unit . if you go too the unit info from manufacturer it will say no filter to clean ..

No need to get an extra. That's the great thing about this filter, reusable. But if you'd like the piece of mind of having a spare, you can go to their website and purchase one.

Mine came with a single filter. I did end up buying a couple more as spares though.

This filter requires no additional maintenance, but it is recommended for hard water. If you already have filtered water or use distilled water, you won't need this filter. The directions say to change the filter every 30- 40 fill-ups. To me, that sounds like a lot. If you use the machine every day, you'll have to replace the filter in about a month and a half, and that can just get too expensive! I wanted to return my filter, but the return shipping was just outrageous, so I've kept it and will use it but not order replacements! Hope this helps!
