No. I have been running it for almost 2 years. Cleaning it a few times year, it still seems to hold up great.

I've not see any water leaking from the filter area. That said, I do believe that water does drip down through the filter... where do you see the water coming out of?

I've been using PUR filters for a long time. I don't have any problem with it. After installation, please don't forget to let the water run for the recommended time.May be you have a different issue. Sorry, I don't have a definite answer for youGood luckN.T

i'm sorry I can't answer the question for you. I returned my water filter because the seal wasn't working well. It may have just been that one particular item but I didn't re-order another. I hope you find the replacement filters you're looking for.

This is the second time I've gotten this question, and the answer is the same: This is a USED filter. Who ever Amazon is listing as the seller Amazon should look into because they are selling used filters & should not be selling to people on Amazon! Please notify Amazon about the issue so Amazon can take the seller off the site. There is no reason that water should be dripping out of a new filter!

I dont know about on Amazon, but I got mine at Lowes hardware store. I have 30 of these waterers set up and love them. Very inexpensive and effective. Order them, then take them to the hardware store to make sure they fit properly.

Mine was just installed and I suggest a plumber do it unless one is handy with such chores. The manual says to change the filter annually and I find them on the internet for about $12. I don't know if having hard or soft water effects the life of the filter.

has no waterfilter that I know of. I installed ours without. It's been going 2+ years now on extremely hard water without any issues so far.

I did not shake mine so I cant tell if it makes noise. Previous answer sounds right. If in doubt, call the factory. I am very pleased with the filter. You might want to buy a brass fitting for the water connnection. I dont like the plastic connector. I had a brass fitting from my old filter that worked perfectly.

There is a cover that slides over the filter and holds it in place. It is part of the vacuum (does not come with the filter). Is your cover missing?

Dunno. Don't have one. This is not a great filter....returned due to scratches right out of the box...

I've had the same filter for years. I clean it with an old toothbrush and knocking it against something (outside). I didn't know I could wash it, till I came here to see about a new filter and saw all the comments about washing them.

I just went through this issue as well, with the New and Improved filters...as Special Etc mentioned, it was because I hadn't pushed down on the filter enough to create a seal. I could actually see water leaking out the bottom, in addition to it pouring out the 4 holes. After pulling it out, re-inserting it and pushing it down hard, it sat much better and the filtering was back to normal again.

I think you might have posted this as a general question. From your posting, I can't even see which filter you purchased. You should direct your inquiry directly to customer service. Better yet, call them at 888-280-3321....Alan
