What cleaning and maintenance does it require?

Cleaning the well at the base is a challenge. Each tank holds 1 gallon & you have no access to clean inside them. I soak them in warm vinegar & water and shake. The machine needs to run all the time. If you use it for a while & then let it turn off it will increase mold growth in the filters. All this may sound gross, but I still appreciate every day how much better the air is in my bedroom during winter. I go through at least 2 gallons of water each day. The air is that dry. It takes some work to keep the machine clean, but it's worth it.

just a little cleaning at the end of the season, and a extra set or two of filters are recommended.

yes the unit has 2 plates and a back filter that needs to be cleaned depending on usage

The maintenance is minimal, you just back flush the sand filter when the pressure gets low. A skimmer is a must for insects and other debris that fall into the pool. We just cut ours on a few days ago for the second year and sounds noisy, so maybe buying another one soon. We could not tell that the electric consumption changed from the fresh water pump that came with the pool.

Mine has never required cleaning and I use it almost daily. I think a soft bristle brush should do the trick if you feel like cleaning.

I clean it very carefully using Windex and paper towels.It looks amazing afterwards however is very time consuming.

Reg cleaning is all that is needed. Does not need replacement if you buy stainless steel filter

I had mine for several years before I bought a new one. I just cleaned the old one regularly

Yes, it's a steady 24-7 machine that has worked like a charm. The only thing you need to do for maintenance is Zojurishi Citric Acid Cleaner through it once a season to remove hard minerals. I never turn mine off since I use it often.

I dis-assemble and clean the screen as it needs it. Regular cleaning will keep it in perfect condition. It is also so cheap to purchase that you are better off trashing any broken units entirely and buy a new one. Be sure to handle the plastic cup carefully by not over tightening, and wet the "o ring" to ensure a water right seal before using and everything should last a very long time. I've had mine for over a year with no problems.

I haven´t had to clean it yet. A great water-boiler though. Been using it daily for more than three years. :-)

Thank you for your inquiry. Happen to have one at home and have only used it twice but I have had no issues with getting the unit completely cleaned. Hope that helps. Thank you

So far I haven't needed any maintenance. If I did, I'd probably use WD40 or some such. I've been using this machine for over a year and it's remained quiet and problem free. We love it.

We have not given any maintenance to the machine. It works smoothly and efficiently. It is ridden once or twice every day. I am very satisfied with it.

The tank does not require cleaning unless the system is not in use for a long period of time. Usually, flushing the tank once would be enough.

It has a sensor I think and tells you when it needs cleaning. You can also wash it off manually.

Sorry, I have only used it twice in my garage since I purchased it, so have not had to clean it yet.
