How many gallons of water is the filter good for?

The packaging for the filter claims that it is good for 100,000 gallons. I'm assuming they are expecting you to be filtering fairly clear water and cleaning the filter regularly. If I get 10% out of my filter I'll be happy.

The mini I think is for 100,000 gallons The regular I think is for 1,000,000 Don't quote me on either, it should tell you in the description

Do the math. Unless you live outdoors you will die before this filter needs to be replaced.

Filters around 1 million gallons, honest. It works though. tried it on the waters in Bangladesh and Maldives (filtered salt water) still works great. Don't squeeze the bag too hard, too fast. I'm finding they sprout leaks quicker with the force used...FYI

With proper maintenance they say 100,000 gallons . Even 10% of that makes it an awesome filter.

They claim 100,000 gallons. In terms of backpacking usage that's a lifetime.

I fill a 25oz water bottle twice if it's totally full, the top takes about 1 so you need 2 filters to do that.

I am not affiliated with the manufacturer, but I believe it is 200 gallons. I use filtered water for the same reasons. I do not trust water out of the faucet.

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.

All I could say is its filters 5 8oz glasses of water per day for up to 6 months, but I only have it as a back up filter, I havent used it yet.

How long-equals how many gallons of water you filter in a month- been getting on average about 125 gallons from one filter. I purchase the filters in the 3 pack-which comes out to a little over ten dollars a filter- so if you buy water from the store its around a dollar a gallon so its a great value and its there when you want it,and you don't have to go play fetch to your area market.

It depends on which size container you have. We have the Burkey Traveler which is a little over a gallon and it only uses one filter at a time, but some of the larger containers use two at a time.

The documentation says to change the multi-stage filter every 500 gallons, (every 6 months.) The ceramic dome filter at the top is supposed to last 1,000 gallons, (1 year.) I guess it depends on how fast you go through 500 gallons of water filtered.

It depends on how you are plumbed. If you have a single line which does both, you only need a single filter. If you want to know about volume, the filter is rated for a specific number of gallons. You will have to use your judgement as to how much water per day you are using. Good luck!

I believe the filters last through at least 30 gallons of water or 3-4 months.

The filter lasts about 4 months. This is much longer than previous filters I have used. Also, it depends on how much water you use. I make coffee with mine and use it for drinking water.

First off, if you have an aquatic turtle he needs more water than that. If it is a tortoise enclosure, this filter will do just fine. It is not meant for heavy duty aquarium filtration. If you have 10+ gallons I would not recommend.

It depends what filter, who you buy it from and how many gallons you run through it.

We have had one for about a year now. It appears to hold about 5 gallons of water. I agree that you must keep the water and filter clean - any decent fountain water additive will address that.

It depends on the bio load in the tank and the frequency of water changes. I use mine on a 75 gallon freshwater tank with 16 Cichlids. I do 20 gallon water changes every week and this filter is much more than I need. Cichlids tend to be dirty requiring weekly water changes.

I believe its 500 gallon or 6 month filter. I change mine every 6 months even though I don't use nearly the 500 gal. limit You can tell by taste when the filter is going bad.

I don't know the exact number of gals it can filter, I used it for 7 months, and it (4 pcs) works very well so far. I am happy with this product.
