I had the awfullest time with this, too! I was afraid I was going to break it, but the bottom unscrews. The instructions, such as they are, say to use the housing wrench, which I don't remember getting. Anyway, it can be unscrewed by hand but it's hard to do.

The base of the canister should unscrew from the long body of the canister (canister:housing of filter) . At least that is how I got mine open with no tools except maybe gloves, and likely leather garden gloves to get a better grip.

A filter wrench BUT they don't give one - I used an auto oil filter wrench. Tap Master is crap. Maybe a male friend can open it.Go to pureearth.comSorry so late in reply

Hi CatLady - instructions are printed on the front of the product label shrink wrapped to the filter, and an orientation graphic is printed on the back. For more detailed filter change instructions please visit > the Installation Instructions FAQ on the company website > then click on the TMJR Owners Manual. Please note that we have updated the filter cartridge so that it only fits in one way. In the past customers have accidentally installed the filter the wrong way impacting the taste and causing leaks. We have remedied this. The new cartridge also holds more media :-)

not hard to do. u need to turn off the water so there is no pressure. then unscrew one at a time. some water will drip out. i put a plastic bucket under it to catch the water. be alert to the rubber o rings. have an exta one on hand along with some silicone grease to put back on the o rings. do not have to really tighten them hand tighten and then say another half turn.the insides of my canisters were really dirty so i had to clean them out also. in total i spent say 2 hours to change the filters.

I have not discovered a way to tell. I usually just let it run out and hook up a new one. I do not start with a new canister every time.

Yes. The canister simply unscrews. There is a removable filter basket inside that unscrews but usually I just take a round vacuum brush attachment from my big vacuum and simply brush off the filter while standing over a big wastebasket or garbage can. It takes about a minute or less to clean. Extra filters are sort of expensive so I usually just brush off the existing one.

You have to tear off the shroud/hood to get at it. There are something like 3 or 4 screws holding it together. That's the hard part, but it isn't too difficult to hold it all with one hand while using a screw driver. Slide the old filter out, slide the new one in. Put the screws back in and you're done. I think I did find a manual on the Whirlpool web site that had a picture showing the location of the screws. Good luck.

Replacing the seal on the flush canister: (1) turn off the valve supplying water to the tank; (2) Flush the toilet to empty the tank; (3) Disconnect one end of the pull-chain from the canister or from the flush handle; (3) Put your fingers under the guide that protrudes from the top of the canister and turn it counterclockwise one-quarter turn (This will release the canister from the tank); (4) Remove the canister; (5) Turn it over and pull off the rubber seal; (6) In its' place, install the new one; (7) Replace the canister; (8) Turn the guide clockwise through one-quarter turn to lock the canister in place; (9) Reconnect the chain; (10) Turn the water back on. You're done. Once you get started, you'll see that the procedure is pretty simple and quick. Also, there's a YouTube video available at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-oVbeFsXhI. Gary Pforr

1. Open the lid where you pour the water. 2. Locate the filter holder (usually is black). 3. Grasp the filter holder and pull straight up. ****NOTE how the holder is in position. 4. Open the small basket that holds the filter. 5. Remove filter. 6. Place the new filter in the basket and close. 7. Place filter holder back.

after you pull the back cover off (the cover holds that black flimsy filter), there is a module that covers most of the back of the unit that is attached with plastic clips. Grab the module (it's about 12"x6"x2" in dimensions) and gently pull away from the unit. That's the filter in your hand. You need to replace that periodically with a fresh module. As for the black flimsy one, I vacuum him off and put him back in, I don't replace him. Hope that helps.

Filter housing is located inside the refrigerator top left. It may be located in different areas on different models. Just unscrew the old filter and pull out, then insert new filter and screw into place.

I honestly don't know, what I did with mine is the filter part fit in my old holder so I didn't bother with the new one. I only wanted the filter part. Sorry if this doesn't help.

So once u remove the "bag" portion undue the clip at the bottom dump into your trash then grab the iner plastic filter twist and remove to fully clear canister. Also unclip to filter at the bottom of the cans where it clips in and shake it out the rinse with water. Hour this helps it took me forever to find all the parts that come apart

There are two clips on the top. First you undo them then pull the motor assembly unit off. Underneath that is the filter with a rubber gasket that seals the edge of the tank. Pull that off and you will have access to the ash compartment which you can dump out.

Sorry Arthur...I think you're right! I ordered a spare filter back in June and thought nothing of it. Then, I went to change my filter this morning and the one they sent me was wrong. My old filter has an opening on both ends and the new one does not. Plus, the part number is different. Maybe it's a new design but I'm not putting it in until I find out. Thanks for making me aware of this. I wouldn't put your's in either. Please let me know if you find something out from the company.

AnThe handle for the "filter holder" can be found inside along with the water reservoir. When you open the top lid to pour your water into the reservoir, you should see the top of the handle on the left of the reservoir. Pull up and at the bottom of the handle( it is about 6" long) is the small carrier for the filter that is the same shape of the filter. Snap apart and replace filter. Snap shut and slide it back in its place beside the reservoir. Hope this helps. swer here...

Remove the filler tank and locate the filter at the bottom of the rubber tube. You should be able to easily pull it off. It not, just take some scissors and clip it off as close to the filter as possible. Hope this helps you. Mine is still working fine and does what it is supposed to do.

Just pull the used filter out of the lid and push the new filter into the lid.
