how long will the filter last?

It depends on the air conditions in your area. My daughter lives on a dirt road, so hers lasted about six weeks. I live in town, my house is tight, so mine has been going four months and still doesn't need changing.

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.

They may last up to like 3-6 months, just depends on how much you use the bottle. The filters can be bought right on amazon but I found then at Walmart to be a little cheaper.

According to the instructions, they will last 30-40 fillings of the tank. In my case it is about every 3 months which is similar to the older filters.

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.

The company that installed my new system said that this filter would last one year. But when they came out to do an inspection after one year, the guy said that I should have changed the filter earlier. I now change the filter every six months. So far, that seems to be about the right amount of time.

I have only used it for about 6 weeks. Every other week I took out the filter and put it in a diluted vinegar solution over night. I hope that the filter will be cleaned and lasts a little longer.

When I bought the system it said on the box that for a family of 4 the filter should last about 1 year or something like that - now depending also of usage. I would at least change it once a year even twice in fact as I got more filters with my last order.

The unit figures that out for you depending upon how you use it and at what speed. My filters seem to last about 9 months or so.

I only use it for about several weeks, and it works well for now but i don't know how long it lasts. As for the filter, I may try to buy a new bottle considering the price of this bottle.

The filter lasts about 4 months. This is much longer than previous filters I have used. Also, it depends on how much water you use. I make coffee with mine and use it for drinking water.

Could it be that it expires if you don't begin to use it for five years? The filters are fabulous, and will last up to 6 months if your water is normal. Ours is hard and full of rust, and it works for about 2 on average. Totally worth the 10 dollars.

I've had mine for two years & haven't replaced the filter yet. So, I don't know. It depends on how much you use it I guess.

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.

Eventually the filter will need to be replaced. As long as you take care of it it last a long time.

I find one site that sells cartridges (houzz.com) says "Each filter cartridge should be replaced within 45 to 60 days depending on usage. Today I talked to the UnitedStatesian distributor (not the Amazon distributor in Canada), and he says it's good for roughly 6-8 months showering 2 times a day.

The filter is supposed to last for 2 years. I would order the new filter from Zojirushi at Amazon.com

Eventually the filter will need to be replaced. The replacement Frequency depends on usage. In my case, usage is moderate, less than 12 hours per week, so I expect the filter will last several years. The "cleaner" mechanism works very well to remove the more coarse grain dust, but the very fine dust will get trapped in the filter and build up over time. I am very pleased with the performance of this unit. I added a third party remote to complete the configuration.
