The filters are typically replaced annually. The membrane should be replaced every 3-5 years. These figures are for typical municipal water conditions. Part# B000F5M6V6

Every 6. month's but make sure it's the correct filter because the one I. ppurchased in December was shipped with the wrong filter it blew dust out. replaced with right filter this is my second one. That's why I purchased this one, the last one lasted fir 10 years. It ran 24 hours 7days a week nonstop.

Really clean the filter or replace it. We need to clean the filter at least every two weeks of use.

We've had ours for about a year. No issues yet, just need to change the filter.

You can order them on Amazon. I normally keep my filters a bit longer than recommended, particularly in colder, dryer weather. My personal recommendation is to change the filters every 6-8 weeks in the colder months and once a month in any month without an 'r' in it. Always clean the bowl and motor and motor housing once a week with a small brush. It will keep the water from getting slimy.

I don't think you need to buy a replacement filter. I keep vacuuming mine and it does great.

I change it every 6-8 weeks and I buy them from Amazon. Since the water sits out for approximately a week (unlike our human water), it's a good idea to use the filters.

I assume you are referring to the Reverse Osmosis membrane filter. That needs to be replaced too, but not as often as the other filters. I think the normal replacement period is between 2 and 5 years, depending on your water quality. They used to be very expensive, but the prices have come down a lot in the past few years. You can buy the R.O. membrane filter directly from the seller.

You can get them directly from the manufacturer, P3 International. Give them a call at 1 + (212) 741 - 7289. Filters are ten dollars each (when you factor in shipping - $7 without shipping).

You can clean the filter yourself and use it over and over again. I can't foresee ever buying another filter for it.

According to their website, filters should be replaced every 6 months. We've been using ours since 9/2012 and haven't replaced the filter yet. The water is still tasting good. Your water usage would effect how often the filter needs replacing.

Only place I found filters was at Bed, Bath and Beyond.....manufacturer of unit and replacement filters is HoMedics (unit is packaged as Sharper Image but they're no longer in business).

You can buy replacements. The filter is cloth and mounted inside a plastic frame. I have washed it by hand twice, and it is holding up so far.

I replace the filter about every 9-10 months. It runs 24/7 on fan speed -2 except for those weeks when the weather is nice and we open the house. I wash the foam pre- filter every month

Manufacturer says 1 yr. I doubt if we have to replace ours at 1 yr, just vacuum the pre filter monthly. That will make a big difference on how long the filter lasts.

Yes, it needs replacement filters 2-3 times a year. Easy to find and order on Amazon.

On the old models I changed every 30 days. This one, with filter A, says it will last 3-6 months. I haven't had this one long enough to know for sure.
