How often do you have to replace the filter?

I change mine about every 6 months, but I only use it at work. It doesn't get everyday or all day use.

We did not keep it long enough to change the filter. It was too small for the bedroom we wanted to use it in. B. Sword

I replace mine about every 6 months. As long as you have a shutoff valve ahead of the filter it's an easy un-screw the old, screw in the new replacement operation. I put a bucket underneath it to catch any water during the replacement (very little spills out.) Takes a couple of minutes at most.

I change all the filters once per year with the exception of the membrane. That one is good for three years.

The best practice is to change it every 8 to 12 months. Even flowing strongly after that time filter could have lost part of its filtering properties.

It really depends on how much you use it, it says about 16 gallons per filter, but I've found that it varies from time of the year (you drink more water in the summer), I'd say you would have to replace a filter at least once every 2 months.

I just estimate how many times I fill a day, which means for me, about every 6 months. This is based on the manufacturers recommendation for length of filter use.

I have a 2000 sq ft home and don't use the forced air much, maybe 1 hour or so a day. I change mine every 3-4 months. Please see the answer from the filter salesman in reviews.

I've owned a unit about two years. I replaced the filter after year 1 and just replaced it the second time. The unit seemed to work OK, but the filter does get a little "grungy". I'd say replace at least once a year (I only run the unit during the winter and early Spring months-November to April)

Membrane every 2 years. Filters need to be changed more often--according to the amount of use.

I've had mine for two years & haven't replaced the filter yet. So, I don't know. It depends on how much you use it I guess.

I believe it is every four months, but they have a "filter club" you can join when you buy and they'll automatically send you any replacement filters as needed on a subscription basis so you won't have to give it a thought. My unit was very recently purchased, that's why I'm unclear on the timing...

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.

We do ours about every 4-6 months but our water is bad. The timer light on ours comes on every six months to replace filters, so we do all three. If your water isn't horrible once a year is probably fine, but the others may need changed every six months. So yes you can get a year out of one of these

I change mine every 6 to 9 months. It greatly depends on how wet the conditions are, and how good the inside filter does. All depends on how bad the system enviroment is.

So far I haven't had that issue. I just clean off the filter - wipe off with paper towel or hand and replace it. I haven't had it longer than about one month.

They recommend changing the filter every 6 months. I believe the warranty if for the entire unit. There is a filter inside that has to be changed.

I don't use mine all that much, but I haven't had to replace the filter yet. I do clean it after each use, but that's easy enough to do.
