Sorry no. However I have had customer in my store claim they do simply rinse them off. However, I would recommend tossing them every six months (or sooner for high use) per the instructions. Thank you

No, they are not washable. I believe they say that on the package. Buy the multipacks, change them as often as recommended and you'll be happy with them.

You can wash the filter, but it takes awhile to dry. I bought two HEPA filters for it, so there's a dry one to put in when I (occasionally) wash the other one.

I picked this up to stop breathing welding fumes and don't use it for mowing lawn. Guess it depends on how dusty the air gets when you mow. The filters are foam, so they should be washable and most likely are reusable.

I have not had to replace the filter. I use a dust pan brush to clean the filter. There apparently is no washable replacement filter available for this particular filter, at least not yet.

The filter is washable and getting it out is not a big deal. We've run this for weeks at a time and I've never had a problem with it to date.

All the filters with the exception of the white paper can be washed in a mild soap and water mix. Vacuum the white pleated filter and replace it once performance suffers.

Yes. This is the disposable white filter only. The washable, reusable foam filter is also needed.

Yes. There is a washable primary filter but the HEPA exhaust filter must be replaced.

It comes with a cloth/metal filter that is washable. You can also find, with a little searching, a Cory Glass Filter Rod that works very well with this pot!

I have not attempted to wash the filter, but I use a fairly stiff brush to brush the dirt and hair from the filter after each use. This action seems to work well.

I am not sure, the HEPA filter looks to be made of paper. I do not think that it can be washed with water. It could perhaps be blown clean with air under pressure. I have an air compressor which one day will be used to try to clean the filter. Until then, I am keeping mine away from water.

Yes it is washable, but like stated takes a while to dry. I use this in our RV and it works great; but I keep an extra filter on hand.

I don't think I would try washing them, we just changed our filter for the first time, it lasted 6 months. We love it I would recommend this air purifier to anyone. If I had to change it every 2 months i would agree with you about cost. The purifier lets you know when it needs to be changed.

No. DO NOT wash these filters. They can be vacuumed or air blasted out doors.

Yes, the HEPA filter is completely washable -- but it would have to be replaced after several washings to insure maximum air flow. Before washing the filter, it should be VACUUMED thoroughly FROM THE DIRTY SIDE before WASHING FROM THE CLEAN SIDE. This method has allowed the HEPA filter to be fully functional after over a year of service. Good Luck !

My understanding is that the pre-filter can be easily washed, but the HEPA filter should never be washed. You will ruin the HEPA permanent filter by washing it. It can be vacuumed, or just shaken out. Because the pre-filter does a lot of work, the HEPA filter doesn't get very dirty anyway.
