How long does the filter last?

In theory, one year, but really depends on the usage. I would say 11 months.

It depends, of course, on how much you use it and the sediment in and quality of your water supply. Typically for us, it's a year. The flow rate slows considerably when the filter is full. We run out of patience waiting for the slow stream to fill a glass. At that point we order a new set.

With average use through above counter dispenser (drinking/cooking use for household of 3), we seem to go about a year.

you are suppose to change them out every 330 days If you don't change them. the water flow will go to nothing. because of the cost I would never put one in my house

I think they officially want you to replace them every 6 months but I usually replace them around once a year. It depends on your usage. I have it hooked up to a below counter ice maker & also a drinking water dispenser above counter. When the water starts running slow on the dispenser I replace the filter.

It depends on usage. The Everpure website states that they should be replaced once a year. But it also states that they have a 1000 gallon capacity. I take this as meaning replace once per year or every 1000 gallons whichever occurs first.Another indicator that you need to replace the cartridges is when the water flow out of them has diminished significantly.

Length of time. I think it's one year. It's just a stick on timer. It gets no info from the 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 do not remember. I read the directions. It was not long but of course depends on just how dirty your filter is. Follow directions.

The filter that comes with the unit will last a long time. I have been using this for about 6 months and the pre-filter is still good. For maintenance, I vacuum it twice a week and boy this really sucks in a lot of dust specially during the winter time when the heater is always running. So maybe if you clean regularly, it will last a good 6 months.

Depends how much you use it. I was only using mine at night, and the filter lasted almost a year.

I haven't yet had to replace the filter. I don't use it that much. My filter is a permanent filter and I just empty it in the trash when I use it.

Ditto Donna BUT I saw on their web site that you can vacuum the filter (usually 12 months from the time you started using it) and that the filter should last a total of about 2 years. Now we know why it was a Gold Box Deal when we bought them!

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

Quite while. I fill it and then walk away, so it takes 2 or 3 hours at least. If I go back to the kitchen I often top it up, it seems to work faster if it is full or near full and using the entire filter.

It comes with 2 filters that last about 6 months. You have to replace them with new ones ...bought on Amazon. We still love ours almost a year later.

Depending on how much water you use. Ours usually lasts about 2months.. Aside from that this is the best brand of filter we have used. All of the others Pur etc.. all start leaking and squiring water all over after awhile. I definitely like the Dupont filter the best.

I have only had the unit for about 3 -4 weeks but there is a indicator on the unit that will tell you when to change filter. I do not know if this helps.

Yes, not sure how long the filter lasts but pretty much depends on the usage I guess.

about 6-8 months if you have about 5 glasses a water a day. You will notice a slight change in taste when the filter is used up.

I am cleaning the fountain once a month & do replace the filters. They say they last 2-4 weeks. I have 3 small dogs & 2 cats using the fountain if this helps. They love it!

It depends on how often you use the Floormate. The more you use it the sooner you will need to change it. Once a week or so and it should last 3 or 4 months. I just kind of look at it, and when the filter looks pretty dirty, I toss it and replace. Hope this helps.
